I bought a 2019 370Z sport coupe all-black 6M and love the car. It's an old-school performance sports car with some modern-day refinements but at its heart it is a narrowly focused driver's car, as I exactly wanted. The design philosophy was based on the Porsche Cayman S with the intent to match the performance as closely as possible at an affordable price to purchase and to maintain. I like the S-mode rev matching and have played with it but I still prefer manual blipping of the throttle during downshifts, to maintain my touch and sense of timing for the gear changes. Since the car is such a capable car in the handling department, I can focus my efforts on refining my driving techniques to get smoother and more precise handling. The car makes my daily drive to work and back, plus my occasional road trips in the canyons and mountains of Northern California, a real treat in trying to perfect my driving skills. It's not the car for everybody, or even most, but for those who appreciate what this car was designed to do, and not do, it is a real gem at an affordable price. I recently added Hotchkis stiffer sway bars front and rear which virtually eliminated body roll and greatly sharpened up the steering response, with the tradeoff of somewhat more ride harshness.
@@Greylin91 If you're a driving enthusiast you won't regret getting one; you'll only wonder why you didn't get it sooner. What I also forgot to mention about the car is how much it turns heads when I'm parked at a curb and there's pedestrian traffic walking by or when I'm stopped at a light. Part of that may be due to the fact that I had a multi-stage paint correction and ceramic coating done on the car that gives the car a very deep wet glossy look that always looks as if it's been freshly waxed. I'm in the process of having some of the bright metal badging removed or blacked out, making it look even more sinister and aggressive.
i’m still saving up to get a 370z. i’m the type of guy who hates how modern cars are infected with electric garbage all over the place. i want something fun, lightweight with good handling and Manual. i hate Automatics with passion. so yall think 370z is the perfect car for me? if yes i’ll keep saving up
@Joseph C. they're cheap, reliable and easy on maintenance while being fun to drive. For a young petrolhead they arent overrated, in fact they're affordable right down to the insurance level. unlike the usual BMW's and Audi's which hurt on all levels
The thing about owning a Z is that it's in a class of its own that hardly exists anymore. Besides the Miata, BRZ/86 and the Z4/Supra, there are very few modern roadster offerings at all. This presents a problem when racing as you are, at least in theory, either punching well above or well below your weight most of the time, but what's crazy is that I worry much more about losing to awd turbo hot hatches than I do V8s.
I saw a TH-cam video of a Z that did a top speed run on the German Autobahn with the speed limiter disabled. The real-time view of the dash from a camera mounted on the strut brace bar showed the car topping out at 175 mph.
Yeah man, getting tired of this shit. I just found out, we won´t even get the new camaro, although it has 5 star safety rating, just because the aero shape of the car is "too dangerous" for euro standards.
Don't get the brand new base unless you just have to have a brand new car for some reason, just find a used 370z nismo 2015+ in good condition and 6 speed if you can, you wont regret it. The only brand new base model was like $40k usd and i was kind of shocked crazy mark up, got a nismo for like low 30k with low miles
@@letsroll2463 yea im currently looking at the used market, oddly enought the higher end models and newer ones are cheaper to insure than the earlier years. but ill see what im going to get , depends what salary i get when i start working again
I love my 370Z. But I hate the fact my slave cylinder blows up every 20k miles. And it's internal. Which means you'll be fucked by labors costs once it's out of the 35k mile warranty.
On my G35, the slave is external and it still fails too. Easy access though being external. Buy it from O'rileys auto with a lifetime warranty for $40. Replace it, for free, every time I flush the slave cylinder. GTR brake fluid is what nissan called for the help make the slave last longer, it does seem to work. I did a stainless steel line and wrapped it DEI heat tape to keep the fluid from turning black. I figured the internal design would keep it away from the heat, but then I saw it was actually a design flaw from stretching the lip too far in the cylinder and thinned the metal too much, not heat is making them fail. Mine is external and sees the elements is why it fails so I think they put it internal thinking that would solve that issue. Having to drop the transmission to replace the slave is ridiculous, in their effort to make it last longer.

In a few years I'm thinking of having a stroker crank and some oversize pistons installed that would bring the displacement to about 4.3 liter. It won't be cheap but I think it would be worth it.
He sort of dodged the handling and ultimate grip issues so not a very informative test. Now we have the new Z but still based on the 370, hopefully some tester somewhere will really do a proper test.
GameOn Friday what I meant was I wanted to buy the Z.... but when I went to see the genesis in person and test driving it... I bought the genesis without hesitation.. too bad the genesis gets a bad rap because of the hyundai badge.. cause its an amazing car and if it came with a nissan badge and a 380Z it would sell like crazy...
Right... except the Genesis is slightly slower than the Z, doesn't handle as well, and doesn't hold it's resale value as well either. I also think the Z looks better, but that's subjective.
Really? I just thing the g37 is only better for practicality i dont like the look cause the g looks like a altima coupe. I just like the 2 seater Z look

One of a pretty small number of affordable real sports cars, as opposed to tuned mainstream cars.
On a mainstream car chassis (Corolla?)

Was I the only one impressed by the jump they did?
I was pleasantly surprised when I reviewed the 370Z. Very easy to handle and progressive, if not the fastest or best handling car in the segment.
i think you missed the Toyota GT-86n and Mazda Miata

There is nothing like this today on the roads, you can pay twice as much still 370Z will remain a graceful princess in the land of ugly jelly beans.
Yeah you said
Did i just watch Tiff downshift into 1st gear at around 20 MPH? I thought that was on the "never do that" list for manual cars.
I used to downshift into 1st at 30 mph a lot. the car was totally fine
4:20 Golden Moment
These are nice. Quick too- 7AT is a 12 second car. But the G37S is like 300% nicer to live with while only giving up maybe 5% of the performance.
Love my 2010 z car it beautiful
It is definitely a winner
