That just it, though. There is no compelling reason to buy one of these new when it's been pretty much the same car for almost a decade with only minor updates. A good case can be made to buy a used one but certainly not new. I would certainly be interested in an up-to-date version of this car. Sports coupes are my thing. Unfortunately, Nissan just doesn't want my money.

Eric F preach Nissan is just clowning at this point

@@ericf5976 funny enough, I got my 2020 nismo 6mt for 37k with only 8k miles vs. brand new for over 9k more

@ not a fan of either of those

@ fuck those both

Hopefully his wife didn't see that one.

Admiral Ackbar you hear the hesitation in his voice 😁

Who doesn't lol

he almost said fat rear end.. he stopped himself haha

@@nicksheth9551 He would've started another national riot if he did.

You are so very right.

I cannot wait to get mine even tho they are old but hey 300 and so hp and upgradeable hell yes

S2000 enters the chat

@@liamnissanS2K s2000 costs around 25k-30k nowadays for a car that is 20 yrs old and probably have more than 100k miles. Not worth the price besides being a collector's car.

@@D-AVGGamer Yeah but still top 5 best pure sports cars. Definitely ahead of 350/370.

I would say i wish it had a soft touch material on the dashboard, just feels to plastic for the price

I got a big ass fetish. On females and cars.

Admiral Ackbar IT’S A TRAP!!

Who would buy a Z car when they could buy a C8 Corvette?? The 400Z better be pretty bad ass if there bringing that car out now.

@@xFlared send some pics

@@craigscott5661 a c8 corvette is more money than a 370z

Hopefully they don’t ruin it Nissans been outta the game lately

Well, coming from my Uncle, who retired last year from Nissan of 42 years, he said Nissan has no plans to make another Z anytime soon. Sad, but I think its because Nissan knows they can't make another N/A Z and make money on that car. The knowledge of knowing a small displacement 4-cyl turbo vehicle today, with a simple tune and downpipe, would utterly destroy a N/A Z in speed, would make potential customers go elsewhere if they went N/A, even with a 4.0L engine. Torque sucks on them, and tuning potential sucks. But if they made their next Z as a turbo vehicle, then you have to make its stock power potential high enough to compete with cars of its class, which would make it a $50k+ car, and then would start to compete with their GTR when people start tuning the Z. So why would people aspire to buy the GTR at its ridiculous price, when they could get a Z for 1/3 of the cost, and almost be as fast? Doesn't make sense. So they are now stuck with "what to do", hence why no plans to make one. What I would like to see is a 3.0L-3.5L turbo Z. I mean did they not make a freaking 3.0L twin-turbo Z in the early 90's called the 300ZX????? My friend has a 1990 300ZX twin-turbo, and it feels just as fast, if not faster, than my other friends 350Z. I won't mention the 370Z because the 350Z has been proven to be barely faster, because its lighter. Anyways, my point is is What Happened To The Z??? It went from twin-turbo, to N/A, and less fast. Yeah, the 350Z is a lot more capable than the 300ZX, but in speed, its just not. Nissan needs to find a way to make the next Z fast, but with tuning potential WITHOUT having to put $8k+ into it, but also making it just as capable and sports-car like, like the 350Z and 370Z are.

With a cvt

burnedtortilla I just searched available 370Zs on Nissan USA’s website, and the site is pathetic for a major car company. It seems like just another symptom of how poorly the company is doing these days.

@@JacesOwnWorld Your uncle under-estimates the how affordable the VR30 and FM platform would make the Z.. Also Nissan just announced a new Z soooo.

LMAO!

@@RaitisRides Damn good crazy 👍

Thanks Ash!

You are so very awesome! Thanks for letting me share the laughs with you!

Now we are talking! Thanks for sharing that!

Hey my brother boosted his. It kinda ruined it for me. Used to Rev it out and beat on it, now he is so scared of it its not fu

True facts! 👍

My 2005 g35 coupe with VQ DE has 201000 thousand miles no issues other then the normal oil consumption problem.

@@donzi3441 Great engines. My VK45DE has the same issue and I switched to royal purple and it litterly stopped. 2,000. Miles since I changed it and haven't had to add any.

Agreed

I totally agree with you!

I totally agree with you!

Thanks for sharing your perspective from your ownership.

😝🤘 getting the 400 😂

What kind of fucking comment is this

@@BigLongJohnson79 It’s true lol

I had a 2003 350 Z in glacier pearl. Drove it right off the showroom floor of Glendale Nissan in L.A. paid a mark up and was happy to do it. The Z was earth shattering in 2003. All that performace for under $30k. It’s still a remarkable value from base to NISMO. And yeah, it’s a sexy ass car. The BRZ and 86 that Joe Raiti has a raging boner for, as evidenced in this video, are not panty droppers. Joe has to talk up the car he bought his wife. After driving the Z he knows he made a mistake…. That’s REAL! You can hear it in his delivery. So defensive over the BRZ with its 205 HP. Z is still a sexy car and much better car than either the BRZ or 86. Period

an automatic is not engaging.

@@patmac7139 sure if you drive a camry

Well said.

I really appreciate that Jonah.

So very true!

He clearly doesnt own a 370Z it shows he owns a BRZ 😂

@@KZ1000JBZ Funny I own a BMW M5

@@rukuscage9264 good for you stick with reviewing you M5 or at least a car that you own the 370Z yes while outdated by others its still the best bang for your buck sports car for the weight the power and the capabities it has nobody matches it.

Maybe, we can only hope.

I am so glad that you like this one.

the 370z and miata nd are the best looking and handling probably i never drove before sports cars for under 50k or less for in my opinion.

@@RaitisRides not sure if sarcastic, patronizing or both on that comment.

Where are the paddles????

You are so right about that!

I will try to tack one down!

Good for you bud 👌

I would pay 10k

I wold xd

You tripping

@VelocheQ1 they are 20k its pretty cheap if yoy ask me

Fingers crossed they don't water it down.

@@RaitisRides I have seen rumors that it will also utilize a TT V6, so what are the chances of Nissan doing that? Hopefully it isn't like the first gen 300zx, when it was refreshed. They totally watered that one down, until the 2nd gen redeemed it.

Emmm no, el 300ZX design is fine, but the 350z and 370z are a much better option

Ark

​@@TopHatDwarf Surely he's talking about some welder who had his first go in the early 2000's.... 😉😇

I died laughing

Thanks Javier! That really means a lot!

Oh bro the Nismo is amazing. I had an frs with full bolt ons and I decided to switch over to the 2018 370z Nismo and the handling is so good. With the extra 150hp it leaves Frs-brz in the dust.

@@99joserivera the only bad thing is the 370z weighs 800 POUNDS more than a FRS

@@trentmclellan1037 nah man it still handles really good! 3 people I know had a BRZ and within 2 years were tired of it. The Z is amazing, this coming from someone who now owns a new Miata, I would rate 370z first, Miata second, and frs last although all good cars if you want light get a Miata, if you want straight line and pretty damn good handling get 370z, the frs is just in this weird middle section where it could be lighter to feel faster, or needs a super charger. Frs was a money pit, Miata is lighter and faster in both corners and straight line.

This is true!

@@RaitisRides lololol
