2010 Nismo 370Z

2010 Nismo 370Z





For those who find the standard 370Z too pedestrian for their tastes, a NISMO edition is on its way later this year. Like the last NISMO Z, the 2009 model sports a larger rear wing, new bumper and an aggressive front splitter, along with standard 19-inch RAYS ultra-lightweight wheels shod in Yokohama Advan Sport tires. The suspension and brakes get the usual array of upgrades to make the NISMO more amenable to track use and the VQ V6 gets a bump up from 332 hp to 350 hp at 7,400 rpm, thanks in part to a new exhaust and a revised ECU. Power goes from the close ratio six-speed manual 'box (the only transmission available) to the rear axle through a carbon fiber driveshaft. Press releases and specs for both cars are after the jump, and expect pricing and availablity to be announced before spring gives way to summer.

That is the car that will be available here. Expect it to be 40+.

I see the OP bolded the "carbon fiber driveshaft." FWIW, the previous gen (350Z) has a 'carbon fiber driveshaft' More accurately a carbon fiber reinforced driveshaft. They might be the exact same setup

it isn't that expensive considering a fully loaded 370Z is about 40. Really about the same pricing as the 350Z....

Um i like them not bad still have not drove one yet the 370 Z that is. I think the price might come down due to the market on cars like this right now not to many people want them/ can afford them most people right now are trying to get out of there current new car loan and into some thing used and cheap like a fit or older honda

No more fangs, thank god. Looks clean.

Rinses away the nastiness of seeing the ZDX and the Scion iQ concept, that's for sure.
