I Was Shamefully Wrong About The Nissan 370Z | Full Review 

The car's design was a tremendous improvement over the previous 350z. To this very day, I still get compliments at least once a day and are always surprised that the car is 12 years old - It's a timeless design. For me in terms of power, it's enough to zip through traffic and I have no desire to go down the rabbit hole of engine mods.

370z looks much better than a Mustang

I owned several 370z cars, one of which was the NISMO version. They are an absolute blast to drive except on the interstate which is just so generic. Get on to the two lane rural roads and the car really shines. My biggest regret is selling my last one, a 2020 tech model before the coronavirus hit. I now have a 2010 GT-R which is more fun to drive but I worry about the 12 year old electronics, gearbox, etc. I think the 370z is 2/3 the fun of a GT-R at half the price.

I bought a 2019 370Z 6MT sport coupe new and put stiffer Hotchkis ant-roll bars, braided stainless steel brake lines, a Stillen Gen 3 long tube cold air intake, a Fast Intentions x-pipe cat back exhaust and an EcuTek dyno tune. The engine is producing about 46(~378 crank) more peak horsepower with about a 15% increase in torque over the whole rev range. The OEM Bridgestone Potenza tires have been upgraded to Michelin Pilot Sport 4S for better grip and longer tread life. The car is lots of fun to drive and allows me to practice my driving skills in a fun way. It is totally reliable and functions well as my daily driver. Performance wise, I would consider it close to a Porsche 911 Carrera S but at a much lower price. Future plans for the car include lowering total body weight by about 200 lbs and reducing the unsprung weight.

I have a 16 sport tech. These cars are cool, decent performance with reliability. The engine tech is still quite advanced: vvel, variable cam, dual intake, 7speed paddle shift trans, rigid block with girdle, 7500 rpm redline in a large displacement v6, bullet proof. The German cars are more sophisticated, yet bad reliability and ridiculous prices and cost of ownership. 370z is awesome. Not to mention sport package brake setup is impressive given the cost to get into one of these

Had my 67plate Nismo for 3 years and it's my pride and joy. Very analogue and rewarding. Key word for this car is balance every aspect of the car is based around balance. It's not too fast, it's not too light, the steering isn't too heavy it all just bang on the mark for what a sports car/GT owner wants. Great handling, good speed and good looks.

I have owned a 2013 370Z sport tech touring for 3 years and have driven 55,000 miles in that time. Having taken it on long trips weekend trips with my wife this car shines on the highway. Cruising at the British ton all day long in no problem. Have driven on Blue Ridge Parkway, taken to Niagara Falls, Gatlinburg, Memphis and Crater of Diamonds was longest trip. Have 2020 Mustang GT and thought it’s faster the Z is the one to drive the fastest.

Just to add to this to help anyone. I had one OY13DZN for a year or so when living costs didn't matter before the real world set in with me moving out! My personal guide is based on a GT edition SIV I believe they were called with some slight facelifts that wouldn't be visible to the normal eye? (Correct me if wrong) Car was a real cruiser at high speeds and felt like a GT but capable In the Twisties to The engine was amazing. I bought one on low mileage around 26k before lockdown with minimal use and the independent dealership changed the slave cylinder after a week or so which went. I added a Nimso exhaust in time and serviced at main dealer which was cheap as it's a Nissan. No issues, great engine and sound and unique and old school feel. These cars are rocketing in price probably due to the lack of the new Z coming to the UK. It shames a lot of other cars with higher 0-60s etc whilst their auto boxes work out what gear to get into 😂😉... I had the manual. MPG is actually good on a run and when driven normally, expect early 20s to early 30s depending on driving style and traffic... it's very torquey so requires minimal effort when driving casually.. I put Federal tyres on twice during Ownership and doing high mileage, I cannot remember which model of tyre I got. The car sticks to the road amazingly, it's a hidden gym, don't hesitate to get one for low running cost performance if you want a purist experience. I didn't have to do anything to the car except the standard changes expected, sound system is amazing, heated seats are good and the sat nav says if theirs a speed camera (outdated for newer cameras unless you update it) but handy and a cool feature. Any questions feel free to ask.

Thanks for the video, I have a 2018 370Z heritage 6sp and I love it. It's stock and has good power and balance, a great traveling car I use in the the Midwest for road trips.

I have a tuned 2020 fiesta ST and wanted something completely different. A 370z roadster was the perfect choice and opposite in almost every way, yet they're both incredibly fun to drive.

The Z is tenths of seconds from being equal to cars that cost twice the money. (within drivers error). I'm not a racer so that small difference makes no matter. It's just good fun to drive..

Great viewing,. Makes a pleasant change to hear the commentary in a pleasant Scottish accent. Thanks from Wales ( Cymru) 😂

Car looks much more attractive versus most sports cars coming out in 2023

Just picked up a 2010 sport. Was about to go with a brz but when I test drive the z, I was sold. Couldn't be happier

Have a 2014 nismo, dream car so have no bad things to say about it absolotly love the thing. Noticed whitelee wind farm right away as I got there for some pic haha. Great vid and gained a new sub!

I feel like you’d like it even more on a dry day, she grips and you can rip her around some crazy corners!

I own one of those. Nissan haven't changed the design much because they don't have to. Its a fun car to drive. For you to take the piss straight up and never driven it. ???surprises me.

What are the wheel brand, dimensions and offsets? Also, are you using wheel spacers? Apologies if this has been asked previously.

Do you know what exhaust setup is on this?

Loving the drone footage. Looks amazing. ❤

Hard to beat this noise!! Another great review 👍

Ive owned 4 Zeds including 2 Nismos a 350Z as well. Proof I dont listen to others! I might get the convertible 370 in future 😂. I want that Nismo front bumper on the convertible if i get it.

Great review. I’ve got a 350z and am considering a 370z or “other” comparable upgrade, and really it’s just the Cayman that’s directly comparable. I think the 370 is still the better choice for me, but need to get out and drive a Cayman.

Great video Grant, some noise it makes. I think when compared to other coupé's the Z falls short in performance if you compared it to a TTRS or Porsche Cayman or even a BMW Z4 but it makes up for it with its characteristics as a whole. Look forward to the next video.

Great video , is that whitelee wind farm? :)

Some type-r cars are just American classic cars. I would say need Sony XAV-AX8500 car stereo, but already have it, but still not that good as a phone. Good luck with a spoiler, because soon all that banking Information technology is not coming close to GT-Rs so it's what we build here.

So I seen this bumber on a 09 I'm looking at. What model and year is the bumber from? Also would anyone recommend the 09? I had a mustang gt 2015 was fun but I've always loved this car and want to get out of payments

I'd be pretty pissed if I did a re-map and exhaust and only got 15HP extra🤔

I think we have gone byound Power concerns in cars now that EV have arrive, best to buy something that is not slow, Looks good and handles well which the Z does well.

Noise? Yah they are noisy. But the originals tires give a lot of road noise. Home Depot peel and seal in the hatch are knocks that way down as well as using a say a Conty DWS.

0:30 i mean if you look that way than ther is no reason of buying even any newer car or either porsche gt3 since it has only 500hp and cost over 200K while alfa rome that is 4 doors and makes 510 hp giulia quadrifoglio costs only 45K in EU so that doesnt make any sense that you said there but okay

Do you know what sideskirts those are?

370z 😈😍😍😍

A great car.

"throw'em some stick and watch em go just ta please ya" lol... subsribed.

The only sports car that's more reliable is the miata. I have 140000 Mi on my 2009 370Z it's modified with all the bolt ons suspension plus 408 gears (wich I highly recommend) I've never had to make a repair on this car. Not 1.

❤❤❤💯👍

3:03 the 370z makes its max power at redline, not midrange. Rev the car out!

I had 2 370Z's in the past and loved them both. My current ride is a 2017 Mustang GT and don't regret buying it. I've upgraded it with the Ford Performance Pack 2 and it adds so much power but way more torque, especially down low and in the mid range, where it really counts. I plan on getting a C7 Corvette with Z51 package in the future. I've loved the 370Z but would never go back once I get a Corvette.

400Z not widely available; People starts to appreciate 370z. 430Z not widely available; People starts to appreciate 400z. That, is a prophecy.

This Nismo has the standard Z rims.

I find it strange how it's said this car is slow and heavy, mines as quick as any hot hatch in a straight line and weighs no more than a F Type

You could say all this about the 350z especially the HR.

The new Mustang and Porsche you compared to are way more expensive than this car. Definitely not a powerhouse but it was pretty quick when it first came out. Its a great all around sports car.

Love mine

everything you said at the beginning gives "bigger number better" mentality. mustang with more modern design? brother how do you even come up with comparisons like that?

370z in 09 was the shit, a 09 mustang GT had less power than a 370z.

I wouldn't swap mine for anything other than a GTr.

the reason why you would pick 370z over cayman is because you pay around 2x less for 370z

Fuel guzzlers. 😅

Stick a twin turbo kit on, and you're good for 600hp. Plenty on the road with 800hp on the standard engine internals.

Speaking also evolved since 2009, think yours got stuck.

Can someone translate this review into English? lol

One of the worst sports cars I've ever owned. Terrible power delivery, its just not a lively engine at all. Feels like a 180bhp car

Hey man, what you think about going from Fn2 type r to a 370z ? Will it be as fun ? Im inspecting a 7 speed automatic model this week

"...just a bit too heavy, too slow, too dated..." Perfect.
