I'm twenty four, and i'm about to buy an isma but if they change the front on the nude Nismo I might just save my money because I'll have around 25 to 30K. Around spring to summertime and that's when I'm thinking of getting the car. I don't know if I want a 2018 or a 2020, but in my area, they're around like 25 grand to Twenty grand. If they just change the new Nismo, I'm my. Just save up. Because I'll have like close to forty k by the end of next year, so I might just get that, but yeah, you know, honesty, I just don't like the look of it of the new one at least

Thanks for the review and great job. Since you came from a base 370Z, are there any suspensions mods you can recommend for street driving? My budget is $25K so that puts me out of the Nismo range. The new Z is nice, but not worth the dealer mark ups.

Great quality intro! Good content - subscribed! Hope to see the channel grow. Good luck.

i just bought a 2018 Nismo Tech with 20k miles for 33k, did I do alright?

Just got my first this week. It's the perma-smile that gets me!

Been driving my 2004 STi for the past 15 years. No cons at all...Its an amazing car

I'm glad you're keeping it the way it is. This car is perfection as is & will take care of you as long as you take care of it. The Z is a car that makes you excited to get up & drive it every day.

Thank you for this video. The practical side of me leans toward the ND due it's pricing and the fear of parts scarcity with the s2k. The ND being common is actually a strength for long-term ownership, but I have nostalgia for my turboed '95 R package, not the ND. I've owned a S/C s2000 CR in my youth also and numerous jdm/Honda cars inbetween. The cinematography and the driving vibes from this video really captures the spirit of the s2k for me. I've been debating this choice for well over a year as to which forever car I'll own. I've exhausted all my sources for opinions, but this video tipped me to the s2k, especially when you pointed out how "excited you get" when you look at it. I don't think I've ever used that perspective before for my decision making and I think it's enough to make me stick with team Honda. Hope to see more stuff from you dude!

LOVE MY 2020 STI (STAGE 3 BUILT)!!!

im glad i kept my 09 z as a toy since new and had other cars for daily driving. its almost 2025 and i only have 35k on the odo. love the Z but the engine of the new Z is tempting me.

The car looks great, I am planning on getting one of these as a daily driver, but I would have to choose a 6 speed manual, drive safe.

I had a 17 nismo, id take it over the new Z tbh. I also had a FBO tuned q60 red sport so i guess it was a good idra of what both cars were & are ( sort of. ) In hindsight i enjoyed them but dont really miss them for the $$. I like my Evo and BRZ loads more as drivers cars per dollar. The nissan and infinitis were cool but way overpriced for what you get and still are unfortunately and have a pretty terrible crowd behind them. Good video though man.

Just like everything you said bro! That’s why I’m keeping my 2015 v2 nismo in forever! 🙌🤝

I like the way 370Z looks as well. But i landed a sweet deal on 07 HR 350z. Maybe one day will get that 370 Nismo 😊

Conclusion. I think the matter is still preference. Nissan did a lot of things right with the RZ34. The VR30 has a lot of aftermarket support and can be made into a powerhouse. Lots of people like boosting their VQ to make power and thats a lot of money to spend. Having a boosted motor from the factory helps save a lot of money for those searching for power. They still offer manual and a much better automatic than the one in your Z. Along with that the diff is much better too. Since they also shared lots of parts, you can modify the Z to your taste and make the car perform much better for not a lot of money. Bone stock, the Z could be better. But i also think its a great car that can still a lot of joy to someone who is in the market for such a vehicle.

10:04 youre wrong. The z is very capable. Of course youll need an oil cooler and maybe differential cooler for tracking, but the Z has dominated in some forms of racing, all around the world. You definitely wanna test its limits if you have the chance. Otherwise, i agree with the pricing and the vehicles on the market. But if youre gonna pay that match from a brand new sports car, you could go 10-15k higher and get a used GTR. Not many people see those kinds of numbers at all when purchasing, the average range will be 30k and below for a nice, used sports car.

At 35k I would pick up a Lexus rc-f

The 370z is the most slept on car of the century, and ill stick by that. these will age like fine wine. a true future proof classic. looking forward to another video, from a fellow 2018 low k white 370z owner.

For 50k I'll get the Zupra

Why would you buy an automatic Z lol

Nah, I still preffer the 370z in looks and performance 🤔 And its a port injected NA engine 🤯

Yeah but if you financed it, which u probably did. Finance charges or rates are higher on you cars than newer cars so you probably end up paying more in the long run if you think about it.

I love the new Z but the Z isnt spectacular and I think its more of a nostalgic love for the older Zs. It has the potential to be better with aftermarket but I think you are correct. There are just WAY better platforms at the price it has been presented at. The Z as it stands is just a car for people who just have love for a Z and wouldnt mind paying the price for a sort of refreshed classic look. I personally love the look of the 240z and both Generations of the 300zx. I was never that much a fan of the 350z at the time of the release but over the years its become a classic. Between the 370z and the Z itself, Its a matter of preference but either is worth it as long as it puts a smile on your face when you drive it. I am personally waiting for a Z Performance to show up in the lower 40s around me.

My opinion is a bit biased but 08 350z with the hr is my fave z car if I'm being honest! It's taken me many years to like the 370z. It has grown on me slowly but surely. I prefer the 370z with the center cubby not really into the sat nav system. Need to get actual drive time experience in a 370z to give an honest overall opinion. There's things I like more about the 350z and things I like more in the 370z.

Let’s go!!!🔥🔥🔥🙌🏼

The Z suffers from having an identity crisis I believe, it can be so many things to so many people, it doesn't really excel at anything too specifically, it is a beautiful car but going beyond that is up to the owner to decide. Its a blank canvas. Its not a performance machine, it doesn't have any gimmicks minus the REV match. It doesn't present the best tech or comfort but what it does do is put a smile on your face when you look at, the steering inputs are fine, the transmission doesn't like to be rushed but it suffices. You can drive the car daily and it is very reliable and affordable. There is plenty of aftermarket to turn your car into what you have invisioned. I say be humble and grateful with what you have or you will never be satisfied. 😅

This is so fuckin beautiful

I did the same thing, I got a 2018 Nismo white with MT. I don’t like the look of the new Z, the front is a 280z, the back is a 300z, the middle and the interior is a 370z. Also, I can see issues in the new Z with turbos, N.A. is better. I’m very happy with my selection.

Nothing to regret about having a 370Z. I honestly think it's a slept on car in its class. I am biased. I have a '16 Nismo I bought new. Mine is twin turboed, flex fuel, bbk, cooling, suspension, etc. I like the new Z , but it isn't different enough to get me out of mine. I do like the digital dash, but I like analog a little better.

i would also point out the depreciation on the new z versus the 370. most of the 370s have leveled out. but the new one is dropping like crazy, you can pay off 2 older z's for the msrp of a new one

Auto bruh fr should just got an EV 😭

You made the right decision my man! Naturally aspirated engines and analog gauges are a dying breed. Everycar now has a TV for a gauge cluster and turbos, it's really annoying. I got a 23 Maxima myself because I needed the extra space to haul around family & friends. Picked up one of the last VQ35DE's

I would imagine a near triple the cost for the new one was the ultimate factor.

Love the 370z nismo, you should have compared with the New Z Nismo to be more fair comparison

Hi, first video iv seen from you. But i love the look and the sound of nissan 370z, waiting to buy it out right. I appreciate this video. Thank you

I agree 370Z Nismo FTW! I own a Nissan Sentra Nismo 2017 in black bet you did not know they had that lol I plan on collecting Nismo cars. next I get you're car

Auto?

Nismo v2 will always be sexy, wish I got the nismo but I got a fismo lol

Meh

I'd take the 370Z nismo too, but would replace the front bumper

The new Z also has much less character in its powertrain. When I drove some pre-production cars during power steering tuning exercises, I found myself generally preferring the experience of the 370Z's, mostly due to the naturally aspirated VQ with a higher redline. Especially in 2020 or so, a high revving, large displacement engine was (and still is) far more special than a twin turbo wall of torque.

The New Z slowly grew on me. Im sure aftermarket parts will drop for the New Z. keen to see what they do with the front bumper.

Love the reviews and down to earth and relatable vids man! Keep it up :)

I prefer AT’s myself and see absolutely nothing wrong in owning one. Subbed!

Great video man, you really can’t go wrong with either and it really does just come all down to preference.

Sadly cost is going to likely put it out of production. Nissan took a huge risk producing them and the decision to use the 370z chassis was smart too take advantage of the available aftermarket but markups and slow production along with stiff competition it’s looking kinda grim. As far as value the 350z nismo is going to be a nearly 100k car unmodified low mileage examples will be the new grail cars for Z enthusiasts next in line will be the V1 370z nismo but the V2 nismo is the pinnacle of the N.A. cars

I'm new here. 👋 The older nissan Z has always been a favorite of mine. The new Z is cool, but it just doesn't feel right. Like you said, the front square grill doesn't fit and the headlights are small.

How many cars do you have?

😊 get some fueling and do a tune it's crazy hot out. They're so sleepy especially 93 there's so meant to run on higher octane. I can't remember but I thought they revved out to like 6800 VF falls off like 55 or something anyway.

😅 Dude you got to work on your cuts. This thing was put together by a 15-year-old. This thing feels like dragon Ball z. I'm out there that way every once in awhile I think I'm in a seen your car
