His face every time he got on the throttle haha
+Hunter Gray haha i thought the same thing!
priceless!! :-)
its so fucking weird lmao i think he has a problem
Knife Nut 😂😂😂😂
I haven't seen one of his vids in a while.
I'd forgotten how excitable he is. It's part of the fun of watching his reviews.
I don't understand the dislikes. He is a great reviewer. Very thorough.
3k likes to 200 dislikes is an amazing ratio, what are you talking about ?
+Aseril Look how old my comment is. He had more downvotes than upvotes when I submitted it.
hes just a little cringy sometimes thats prob why
MyOpinionMatterss for one it's not a base 370, it's the sport, minor details like that ruin it a bit, he's still very knowledgeable
He makes good reviews and is no one that thinks he´s super cool and puts himself over.
He should always put the time where he says "let's turn on to this back road here" in the description. That's all I come to see.
same here...I even forward to the back road
+Robert FrownyJr thats where he comes! HA!
lmao yah
he's happy reaction is always priceless
lol i was going to say something about that but you nailed it !
Man your face expressions when you do a pull makes the review so enjoyable
The VQ is one of the best sounding motors ever.
My favorite sounding motor for sure :)
agreed!
Yup
Nah fr that shii is intoxicating
If I were in the market for a sports car this would be my first choice. Some Dynamat would take care of that road noise and an aftermarket touchscreen radio would bring the interior into 2014. Just wish some of the gauges were more useful
A lot of the road noise is due to the tires; the OEM Bridgestone Potenza S007s on my 2019 370Z sport coupe are pretty quiet. The Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires that I put on later are even more quiet. Noise is not an issue in my car.
I'm 6'4" an daily drive a 350 . Fit perfectly fine
that expression he always makes thoe. 😂 makes my day every time.
I bought a Nissan 370z a month ago and one of my favorite features it provides is the smiles on peoples faces when they ride/drive it similar to yours at 9:40 . I have yet to experience someone with no less than an ear-to-ear grin in the mid to high RPMs of this car, including myself. If you love to drive and want something with power AND handling, this is the perfect package for you. I always liked the 350z but despised the interior and was pleasantly surprised by how much Nissan improved with the 370z. It only took one test drive to fall in love with mine. Though it lacks rev-matching, it has the NAV screen, Bose, and the sports brakes so to me it's perfect now that I can heel-toe without much thought. Also, I'm 6 feet tall and have no issues with leg room or head height by any means.
Hey man, just want to say thanks that you found time to do this amidst your problems and travels. Awesome review!
Thanks man!
subaruwrxfan whens the next live stream ??????

your hands and arms go absolutely bonkers when you talk.
he is Italian!
Vanneker mama mia!!!!
Underwater Fish Videos I wasn’t serious, he is Polish.
I love it when he turns on a back road ... his reaction is priceless :)
Great reporting and a positive attitude made this video really enjoyable. Thanks!
Now, this is what you should be driving instead of the boiling Mini.
You guys gonna pay for the fuel and insurance?
MakerOfAwesome
With insane miles, sure. Otherwise your prices are way off.
Not for 10k.
Higher insurance, worse gas mileage, considerably less cargo space, only two seats, less comfortable/noisier, worse in poor weather(rwd vs. fwd) and of course higher price tag. I'm thinkin he should stick to the mini.
***** Why the S2000? I am a Z guy but I also like the S2000. I like to hear from S2000 fans why the S2000 over the Z?
I believe the reason for the increased volume is because typically when we drive a car, the back/trunk area is sealed off by the seats or a wall with padded. The 370z in this case has all of that out in the open, and nothing to separate the cabin from the rear/hatch area.
I have a 2020 z I bought brand new. I noticed the noise right away and came to same conclusion.
his reaction to the acceleration is priceless. Love watching it in every video lol.
I bought a nismo yesterday
5 years later. you still have it?
+1 on do you still have it
Do you still have it?
6 years later. Do you still have it?
@@AlejandroRodriguez-jv7mr Probably
Glad to hear you like it cause I was really thinking of buying one...
You should I love mine
@@stevenkirk3163 7 years late bro i don’t think he’s still thinking about it. i am tho 💀💀
@@roccodesantis4690 🤣😭
Got one?
I'm late but thaaannnnkksss sir! i was one of the peeps requesting this.. even though I've driven the car a few times, i still love reviews lol
Nice to see you doing reviews again! And on a car I've wanted to see done for a while!
Income tax in February I'm picking one up. These are going for 12-13 thousand with a salvage title and super low miles. Or spend 17-20 k and pick up a used one with 60k miles. Can't decide D:
I've owned a 03 Z hatch and an 04 Z Roadster. I don't care what anyone sais about these cars... They can take constant beatings and still push. No car has ever offered me that "fighter jet" cockpit feeling when you're behind the wheel than the Z. LONG LIVE FAIRLADY!
i wish i wouldve watched this video before buying a BRZ....
people always get buyers remorse after a big purchase, just don't let it get to you and enjoy what you have
I was actually stuck between the 2 when I was buying my next car. I love both cars honestly, not a big fan of the 370z clutch and the weight but it has great power and decent handling. the brz is definitely slow but I fell in love with the feel of the ride. so smooth and enjoyable. again both great cars but I ended up with a 2016 frs 2.0
Why?! BRZ is sick tho.
Is something wrong with brz or what? I just wanted to know your opinion.
Id take the brz over this
I think the Brz looks a lot cooler and it has the more convenient back seat, the only downside of the brz is the 0-60 time takes longer than a 370z. But brz looks a lot better in my oppinion
Excellent review. I love how you do a very in depth review. Keep the videos coming.
I've had a '14 Roadster for 7-ish years...only has ~20,000 miles. Was going to trade it in when I got my GT-R but couldn't bring myself to do it. I love it!! Got it "used" with ~450 miles on it. 😎
I really want to try that auto Rev match thing. Sounds super interesting
Thank God Nissan still makes a proper sports car. Yes I said proper sportscar- as in something that a true petrolhead/purist would want and not the GTR. I just wish they did a proper Nissan Skyline series in the future like the R32, R33, and R34. Everything else is just a gimmick in their line-up. Beautiful 370Z in that red color and that awesome rev-matching stick shift. This is the future manual gearbox that should be available with a rev-matching feature in every car instead of those stupid flappy paddles !! Drivers car right here and thank you again Matt for the review as always.
Well said 647. You know Nissan.
A new skyline would be sooo awesome!
I like the idea but I appreciate the rawness of a pure manual transmission and the involvement from the driver.
yeah
BimmerMann I'm recently going to be driving and this is the car I want to eventually get but because I'm going to be a new driver I'm worried about getting it and destroying the transmission but thats many years ahead I was just curious about how difficult it is to drive manual
9:41 the best expression and reaction. Like a child with a new toy. I love it.
brings back memories of my 09 370z touring, the bose stereo was awesome in such a small cabin, great review mister
I like watching this guys reviews, you tell when a cars power impresses the driver just by his facial expression. its great. His eyes goes wide open and he starts giggling.
Other reviewers put on a straight face on full acceleration and simply say "This car has power but....."
Cars like 370z used are very cheap here in the UK as everyone around here is wanting to drive German cars,
I would trade in my BMW for this just to stand out from the crowd.
(off to find my nearest nissan dealer for a test drive)
I love this guy's reaction when he accelerates lol classic
I realy love this car ,my boss used to have one of these and i always enjoyed me seeing him drift around our workplace .great review , as always !
Haha, I absolutely love his reaction to the acceleration, great review Matt!
before i wasnt much of a 350z /370z fan but after watching this video im now considering buying one as my first car. i freaking love 2 seater cars, it makes it feel like your in a super car =). and them wide tires in the back makes it look awsome.
Nice review! I have a 2013 370Z myself in Gun Metallic. Mine's also the base model but it's even more base than this one cause it doesn't have the sport package. So it has the 18 inch wheels, no syncro rev match on the manual transmission (which it does have) an open differential, and the standard brakes. It even lacks that little rear spoiler. Yet despite all of that, I absolutely adore my car. Yes I wish it had limited slip and the sport brakes but the standard brakes stop the car pretty well and it drives like a boss. It was the only one on the lot and after the deal I got on it, I had to have it! Nissan really knows how to build a great sports car. The V6 is a great engine, very powerful and loves to rev. I agree that there is a lot of road noise and the clutch takes some getting used to but it's forgivable for how great it drives for it's price point. If you ask me, whoever owned this one may have just deleted the resonators in the exhaust which gave it a louder sound. Anyone else agree? If so then I'm totally doing that to mine until I can afford a louder exhaust for it! It's too quiet!
i love this guy's reactions to acceleration , best part of his reviews :-)
This was a good review; thanks for your thoughtful comments.
I bought a 2019 370Z sport coupe 6MT new about 5 years ago and now have about 57k miles on it. I daily drive the car and it is a blast to drive, with no reliability problems or issues. The mods I've done are: stiffer Hotchkis anti-roll bars, stainless steel braided brake lines, a Fast intentions x-pipe dual cat back exhaust, a Stillen Gen 3 long tube cold air intake and a dyno tune done on a Dynojet chassis dyno with EcuTek software. I got a uniform 15% increase in torque across the entire rev range and a calculated 50 hp increase in peak crank horsepower, ~380 hp @ 7200 rpm vs the stock 332 at the same rpm.
I currently have a set of gloss black painted(to match the color of my car) forged magnesium monoblock wheels, from Litespeed Racing in LA, that will be mounted shortly to yield an approximate 9 lb reduction in weight per wheel, vs my stock Rays Engineering forged aluminum wheels.
My current hp to weigh ratio is about the same as a late model Gen 3 Coyote engine Mustang GT, with estimated 0 to 60 times in the low 4 sec range. The handling of the car is stellar, with the help of the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. Their extremely light weight, with grippy rubber and stiffer sidewalls inspires a lot of confidence when the car is pushed through the corners. Mods in the near future include Recaro sport bucket seats that should shave off about 50 lbs and two-piece aluminum hat brake rotors that should drop about 10 lbs and 5 lbs from the front and rear wheels respectively.
I have a car that will match a Porsche 911 S Carrera in acceleration and is almost as good in handling. With the other weight reduction mods and other tweaks to the suspension, including lightweight coil overs, I expect to then be fully competitive with Porsches, except for the turbo models and the exotic GT RS models. All of this is for a lot less money than it would cost to purchase and maintain a Porsche; I know, I used to own one.
Great sports car!. I might be purchasing a 370Z in a couple of months.
Thanks for the review Beavis :).
+musiclover3928 shit you broke ass aint buyin that car
+musiclover3928 shit you broke ass aint buyin that car
These shits are cheap. I'm thinking about buying the 2009 Nismo for like $18k
Did you end up purchasing one?
Did you buy it?
These Z videos you did are always my favorite to come back to, I love the excitement that comes across whenever you really get on the gas haha. Makes me want one every time!
Love how you always try to regain your composure after the acceleration outbursts
Finally I've been waiting for you to do a review on this car: D
"Gets up to speed very well, very well indeed." lol
Another great review... very cool
I had a 370z with touring and sport set up. Better seats, more bells and whistles than his test car. I loved it.
I had this car for a one day test drive. I loved it! It is very quick. I had a grand touring with the sport options. Very quick!
I had an '09 370Z for 3 years. I'd only recommend this as a second car and only for a person with quite a decent income. He hit the nail on the head with the road noise comment and if like me you decide to add a real aftermarket exhaust then you can forget about having a conversation within at any kind of speed. The big wheels mean expensive replacement tires, a Mercedes owner with the same size wheels can afford $300 a tire but can the everyman dump that much every few years? The same goes for mods, big V6 means pricier dual exhaust,headers and dual intakes and the turbo/supercharger kits cost a fortune. I eventually realized that it was a car that tried to play with the big boys but was marketed to the little guys with big dreams. I still think the 370Z is a great looking car but bang for buck, there are much better options out there for the driving enthusiast. If you are looking for that dream car just wait until you can actually buy that 911 that you really want, in the mean time pick some old sporty car and beat the heck out of it.
Will you ever do a review on the new refresh 370z Nismo 15+?
You are the best reviewer ever,i watch you're videos and keep a good work man!
Drive by this exact car this morning the thought "Wow, that's sharp."... then I see it on my subscription feed!
the LONG awaited Z, i'm going to enjoy this
its amazing that this makes more power and is faster than the old 300zx twin turbo beast, and does it without turbos....The blind spots are pretty severe in this car though..How anyone could say its not bad, is beyond me....The 2019 I tested was Quiet as far as road noise so that issue was taken care on in later models., However ,now they added fake engine noise. ..LOL
oh dude i really need to make a compilation vid of your crazy laughs :)) love them:D
and keep up the good work, great review :)
your reactions are so priceless man. I absolutely love your reviews
Great to see you back doing a review, my friend ! I always thought the styling of this car was inspired by the 911. Take away that spoiler, look at the roof line, wide hips. Yeah, I think I have a point...Also seeing how tall you look in this car, I think I would have trouble to sit in one ( never did actually ). Can I request a 991 review now ? :)
Also look that the door handles they are the same design as the porsche 911 .
hehe I keep telling him to get a Boxster! The early models still had the side airbags he wants and he needs to get into a German P-car so he can share our love for them lol (944 and soon to be boxster owner)
Holtzy944 What year model? I love the boxter myself, and either a used Boxter or used MX-5 in the future for me.
I'm looking at a 97 because i found a good deal but all 986 models (97-04 or 05) can be found for under 10k easily. An S model can also be found under for 00-02 and slightly above for 03-04/5. Either way, they're cheap.
Inspired by a 911 ? Have a look at the 240z. That´s where the inspiration came from.
I own 1 fully loaded just learned my sport package plays DVDs !!!!!!
best parts of your reviews are the acceleration clips..everyone's else on youtube are boring and smirk. yours are creative and entertaining...sounds miniscule but makes a difference when watching other people review cars lol
Ironic, just a few hours ago I was searching for reviews of this particular car and then this comes up-good timing!!
Everything in this review applies to the 350Z too. Including the road noise. You get used to it though. Keeps you awake!
Good review. Hope you can get your hands on a G37 to compare it to....
I have a 2015 370z touring Edition I love it!! As far as the road noise that you're talkin about you are driving the lowest model so that would explain a lot. I do not experience that at all
What model do you drive?
this guys reaction when he hits the gas is enough reason to watch his videos haha...great job man !
I have been looking at these, I found you information very good. I am going to go test drive one. Thanks man.
1:38 That ass doe. ;) Lol. Yes sir the VQ does not disappoint, this 370z sounds beautiful. When they first released the 370z I was more into the older 350z. But I seen one in person and the first thing that sticks out are the wheels. It really is a nice touch on the car. Not sure what I'd choose if I was going with a 350z or 370z. I think I'd be happy with either one. Cool acceleration clips, the reactions are priceless. Been waiting for this review for a long time so thanks for finding one, was an exciting review! Looks like you had lots of fun lmao.
I'd rather see a G35 review, but it would be cool if you found a 6MT G37 in the near future to compare to this Z. :]
I feel like he gets all points of the review and really attacks abnormal aspects that normal people wouldn't get when reviewing. He's very good at this and has nearly given me the feeling that I'm in the car riding with him. Quite a few times I forgot what was going on around me and got lost in this review. I felt like I was riding along. Great review man. I'm thinking of buying one and that is what drove me to look for reviews. Glad I came across this. I'd be adding this car to a collection of other nissans, so it wouldn't be driven in the snow, that's why I bought a titan. I won't be beating on my new Z, that's why I build my 240sx. I have a maxima for family and long trips, so it would be just for driving casually. Thanks man, gonna do some more research.
You are the best reviewer in my opinion. Very nice to see you :)
Great review Matt, to help I guess the gauge sweep primarily known as "staging" just to let you know, hope that helps! Keep up the good work, hope your mini is smoking anymore.
you gotta do a g35/37 now
I think the road noise was exacerbated by the weather. You're noticing it much more since it's raining and your driving though puddles.
Clint the Audio Guy , you’re, short for you are.
Great review man! LOL that Dennys video bomb placement at 14:08 though hahaha :D
Fun review, esp. where you get excited. I'd forgotten about that.
I appreciate watching this. I have a '13 FR-S and this helped me decide not to trade for one of these.
could you try to review a 07-08 G35 Sport Sedan?
The car is still probably on the OEM Bridgestones (especially with 5k miles) and I'm willing to bet if you change them to a better tire, such as Pilot SuperSports, the road noise won't be as bad.
Jason Hyde Are the Bridgestones really that bad compared to others? I have a 2014 370Z with those tires and while they have awesome grip, they are pretty loud. Mine are at the end of their life though and I just bought a set of Yokohama AdvanSport A/S (high-performance all seasons) cause I needed tires that were better for rain and light snow since I live in Northeastern PA. I'm getting them put on next week and I can't wait! I'm wondering how loud they'll be compared to the Bridgestones. I also have a Borla Cat-Back exhaust on mine which helps drown out some of the road noise. :)
Jason Hyde not only is road noise decreased, ride quality is less harsh and even more responsive with Michelin Pilot SuperSports...recommend
+mhtube01 hey I noticed you said u got the advan sport a/s. I got a question because I just switched to those about 3 weeks ago from the Bridgestones. Do you notice the rear wheels feel a little loose as you drive? I have complete grip thru corners it's just over 60mph they just feel a little wierd. I'm thinking it's just because I went from high performance summer tires to the all season so they ride a little different, but I was just curios if you were getting the same feeling or if it's just me lol.
I can't say I've experienced that. So far I'm really liking the tires, I feel like I really haven't lost grip (though I've gone easy on the tires to wear them in) and the ride quality feels like it's improved a bit. I definitely feel more confident about driving the car in the rain and even light snow if I have to.
+mhtube01 oh OK guess it's just me. Maybe I should get an allignment done anyway even though everything feels good
I personally own one of these, a '09 Touring/Sport/Navigation. Its in red as well and I can personally tell you I pull more looks in this than anything I have ever driven and that's a lot over my years. You even get the occasional nice Porsche....lol You laugh a bit but hey, if they think you have that sort of money, cool! I've also really modded mine out with Exhaust/Test Pipes/Intakes/Wheels/Springs etc.....It is just my weekend car but I love every time I get in it. Sounds super mean with a full exhaust and test pipes and the power is great. Highly recommended car all around!
Just test drove one. Amazing feeling! Very solid.
You should review an rsx type s!
Check his videos he already did that a long time ago
11:27 me when Im pretending my car isn't N/A
cant wait to get one now, was looking forward to it but now im hyped :) good jab bro x
Thank you waiting for a long time for this
hah I'm 5'5, when being a midget is actually FUNCTIONAL.....
LEFT side DUDE same here i fit in every car lmao
Same thing for me haha. I fit in an NA/NB Miata like a glove, and many other smaller cars.
@@shaqoneill8069 LMAO wow bogus
It actually kinda sounds like the GTR actually
Well, I believe that's because they both use the awesome Nissan VQ V6. The GTR adds the twin turbos and is tuned to a 3.8 liter VQ V6.
John Vu its not a VQ, its a VR38DETT
Both are totally different engines.
I see. However, Nissan needs to step up a little bit. 332 hp isn't enough these days. The Infiniti Q50 is as fast as the Z is and the 2wd Q50 is even faster so Nissan needs to get the Z about half of a second faster then it is now but I don't know if that will be to expensive though.
John Vu those two might have bigger HP but it don't mean it is faster...they are suv and havier. straight line, they can hang with the Z, but to what? 100MPH? but on the twistie they will fall behind...but i do agree, the Z needs to be put at 400HP.
My older brother’s 370z was totaled by a pickup truck that ran a red light-he was spinning around smoke everywhere like a scene from a movie. Glad he was ok. He now still doesn’t own a car, is driving my parents beaters and works from home.
That's a damn shame what happened to his car! How long ago did this happen??
I've been waiting for you to review an rx8 can't wait for you to review one !!
6:53 hatches evil plan
You should have gotten a 2004 Nissan 350z instead of mini, that's what I'm saving up for, or a 2002 Porsche boxster
Careful with the 2004 models. I believe they have a problem with leaking oil.
John Vu Yep. I can confirm. I had an issue with it.
Boxster is a chick car. Cayman is what you should get.
I bought an 04 g35 6mt, had bad piston rings, got a new engine under warranty.
Funny
"Ok so yea it's quick!" Haha, love that voice. Awesome review
I love you man ! Been a follower since 4ever !!!!!! Keep it up !!!!!
Hopefully you review an Infiniti G35/G37 coupe.
Great to see you making your own blow off valve noises 😂😂😂 @subaruwrxfan
Thank you for another great review, one thing I would like to see you do though is see how many broads you can pick up in that bad boy ,that would be kinda fun, thanks dude.
Lol...u crack me up...great vids. Can u have a segment were u show the undercarriage of the cars , that would be awesome. Thanks from los Angeles
wow, beautiful,,take that over a mustang any day!
Dennis Hann me too,,,, not a vette though
Even the Mustang GT? Their both roughly the same price, the Mustang being slightly cheaper. The GT has 100HP more then the 370Z though.
Good point, lol
Horsepower isn't everything
Mohamad Moussa So? who in their right mind would keep it stock anyway?
All his intro songs have the maddest beats. WHERE DO U GET UR MUSIC?
THECORNER98 Music info can always be found in the description :)
+subaruwrxfan can you review the 2003 -2008 bmw z4? and the audi tt 2008-2015 roadster review?
THECORNER98 a cat does it. Or a PC.
I remember watching this in high school. I actually finally got the 370Z I’ve been drawing and watching TH-cam videos growing up. Need for speed underground
A good 370Z review has the word FUN when describing the vehicle
please review a 2013 Genesis coupe 2.0T or 3.8 pahlease
Oh yeah !!
this guy is never gonna fucking review a genesis coupe such a shame.
TVinmyEye He's done both now! Lol.
Mate you look like Beavis of Beavis&Butt Head LOL :D
eltingville81 less than you
pilothkn Oh crap! this guy does look a bit like Beavis! HAHAHAHA!!!
pilothkn Haha! He totally does! 😁
jaja thats what i thought
Love the reaction to that hard acceleration!
Getting one this Friday I can't wait 😭😭
at 11 minutes 30 seconds his face was hilarious
LUcid 11:30
i love the z cars but for 40 grand to start its not a bargain and the interior for me is not acceptable i love the 350z
I don't know where you got your info from but they start at 29 k
bbjgarcia in Canada dealerships brand new base $38,428 round up 40k
The Nismo is 40K, not the regular models. Even with the 350Z, it was the Nismo that was $40k. The 370z and 350z are the same in price.
John Vu it is 40k go on nissan.ca find a dealer in ontario and look at the base why would i lie?
Canada?
Holy shit your seriously doing a review of a 370z... Fooking excellent mate.
wow great review! appreciate the in depth review, might wanna upgrade my 350z eventually, btw i agree with u and most people when preferring the first release design better than the new one with the leds up front
