This is the brand new Nissan Z! Let's find out if it lives up to the hype. In Sports trim it starts at under $40,000 (dealer markups excluded) with an all new car, new engine, and probably the cheapest price per horsepower of any sports car out there. Join me for a first drive!
Thanks to Sean from Purist, I've got a few minutes behind the wheel of this early car, chassis #10, to get a feel for what the new Nissan Z is about. While it's not a car we get over in Europe, it is certainly one that has been making headlines recently with huge amounts of hype around it. With styling that gives a retro throwback, and even design elements taken from the likes of the 240Z and 300ZX, but also with a brand new engine versus the 350Z and 370Z. This time around it's a 3.0l twin turbo V6 that makes 400 horsepower and can be had with either the 6 speed manual as in the case of this car, or also with a 9 speed automatic.
After a quick tour, it's straight onto the canyon roads to put it through its paces. While the Sport spec carries the incredibly low entry price, the Performance car is probably the right option for those who want it out of the box; with adjustable suspension, bigger wheels, and an upgraded interior. However, fancy making all those mods yourself, then having the base entry version is certainly the way to go!
Thanks to Sean and Nissan USA for the drive in the new Z!
Thanks for watching, Tim
