The 2024 Nissan Z NISMO is unquestionably the BEST Nissan Z of all time, but that goodness comes at a cost, both monetary and visceral. The new Nissan Z NISMO is the evolution of the Nissan Z we all wanted, a satisfying sports car that feels much more like the Toyota Supra than the regular Nissan Z. The NISMO looks better, sounds better, handles better, and is overall much more satisfying to drive, which is saying something because the weather was absolutely awful during the week we had the Nissan Z in the driveway. Unfortunately, the Nissan Z NISMO carries a price closer to $70k than it probably should be, and that puts it into direct competition with a LOT of very exciting cars. You're in BMW M2 range, Ford Mustang Darkhorse, or something like a used Corvette -- not to mention you're ten grand more expensive than the Toyota Supra which has a nicer interior and a few more options. Because of this, you have to really want a Nissan Z NISMO to plunk down the money, and you have to be willing to give up some creature comforts in the process. Will the 2024 Nissan Z NISMO satisfy the Nissan Z faithful? Absolutely. People who yearn for a Nissan Z that lives up to its potential will probably love the NISMO, but does the price leave something to be desired? Yeah, when it's this expensive, it's hard to ignore te obvious. Also... there's the 9 speed automatic. Yes, the Nissan Z NISMO comes only with the automatic transmission, but it's a shockingly good example of the automatic that responds to your inputs as fast as you could want while being competent when left to its own devices. In fairness, I've said before that I'd take the Toyota Supra with the automatic for ease of use as a daily; I'd have to say the same thing about the Nissan Z NISMO (not that you have a choice), but it's so good that I don't think you're missing anything. What do YOU think of the 2024 Nissan Z NISMO? Worthy Nissan Z trim or too expensive? Let us know in the comments!
