The Nissan 350z is a sports car benchmark for being an affordable performance vehicle. The Nissan 350z has a big naturally aspirated engine with over 300 horsepower, a 6-speed manual transmission, and the classy looks to classify it as a proper sports car. Today, we take a look at the 2008 Nissan 350z, the last year of the Nissan 350z, and talk about its features and its performance. Then I take the 350z on a proper road test on the bendy back roads of New Hampshire.

What’re your thoughts on the Nissan 350z? Would you rather the Mazda Miata or Pontiac Solstice/Saturn Sky? Or would you spend some bigger bucks and snag a Porsche 911 or Corvette?

@sebastiantoplician1093 3 года назад

Watched this review just before buying mine this past summer. Had to rewatch the video after owning it. I purchased an 07 MT roadster with only 60k miles I'm in love with it! Picked up some Enkeis this summer and just need some good tires come spring. The car came with a Magnaflow exhaust too. I drive it with the top down all the time and it's such a blast, I take it for groceries, errands and just as much as possible. Taught my wife how to drive it and she loves it too. Even my dog joins me for rides!

This car saved my life i got into a bad accident and i was surprised how much saftey was in this car i literally had air bags wraping around me all i had was some bumps and bruises and a little neck wiplash and lower back pain but it could have been worse going at 70mph on the freeway when someone hit me from the side and i literally went 360 and crashed into other cars.

Nice review, I have two 2005 Nissan 350 Zs. Both have the VQ35DE engine. I am actually glad about that. I do not have oil burning issues like the more powerful engines that came in later 350 Zs. I have plenty of speed and on public highways I can keep up with anyone. Sure on a closed track I would not have a chance. The best part of the 2005 model year was the very low technology. All of the fancy stuff that you can find in sports cars are great but really unnecessary. I just take my Zs out for a cruise and feel great doing it. I am writing this at the beginning of 2021 spring season and I have seen 350 and 370 Zs well under 15K. If you want a great low cost sports car buy one. Plus, if you are not mechanically skilled it does not cost that much for maintenance and repairs.

@patrickbateman5577 11 месяцев назад

are u dumb? the hr didn’t have oil burning, it was the rev up 2005 that did. The 2005 sucks ass, go beyond 6500rpm a few times and bye bye water pump

Same here. 5AT is a tank, and rev-matches on downshifts. Tune the TCM with Uprev, remove 0-60 WOT limitation and you're off to the races. Using 2-3-4th in the 5AT during canyon drives IS pretty fun, don't let anyone tell you different. My old manual car was a 2000 Maxima SE (3.0 VQ).

I have the exact spec but its a 207 links and sounds the same. I was fortunate to find it 2 1/2 years ago with 7000 verifiable miles, it currently has just over 25,000 and has the muffler delete sounds like the car in this video. Its a sold car and a great value very engaging and from back in the days when you had no electronics to make the car feel dated. Its a keeper.

I know this is an old comment, but I just want to clarify for anybody trying to learn about these cars. This car (350z) is completely different than the 370z which was produced from '09-'20. This car absolutely HAS changed over the years, considering they've had 3 different engines and two different chassis

I was thinking of getting this as my first car and build it so I can drift/race on track but still have some highway pulls and just have fun on the way to and from school. I was thinking a 2jz swap with coil overs and wider front and rear tires. Please, if you have any advice reply

@Lemon.666 4 года назад

I would recommend learning how to drive on a less powerful platform first before buying a 300 hp car. Also get a job first, a 350 in good condition can cost $15000+, an engine swap would be way too expensive. Stop dreaming and get down to earth lol.

@josepolanco4245 4 года назад

This is a nice ass first car but like I’d recommend like giving yourself some time to getting used to your car first that 2jz swap is going to be a shit ton and you don’t gotta have the fastest car out there like just get something you can modify but like I thought I had a shit Ton of money then I realized just one bumper cost like 6K like nah fuck that lol I can only imagine how much that 2jz is but go for it if you want just know it ain’t how you start but how you finish your first car ain’t gonna be the best one just try to make the ones after that better 👍

@ktcyvis 4 года назад

Jose Polanco which bumper are you referring too? I have never see. A 6k bumper on the market yet

@solayao385 4 года назад

I guess for a 350z and a track car, 2jz would be a bit of an overkill. You wont enjoy it on the track in highway and drifting yes but remember you're still a beginner my best advice is if you want an all arounder 350z that you can track, drift and drag the car and engine is good itself with a bit of weight reduction, fixing/replacing things by yourself, and a bit of tuning, this thing is a hell lotta fun. Well that's just my opinion. Im more of a track guy so that's it. Aaaaand if start going at the track, never ever underestimate anyone's car especially the 5th and 6th generation civics they're hella fast at the corners haha. Goodluck bruh, i hope you understand what I mean and I hope you get the right car for the right purpose🙂
