I love the new Z! I think they did an amazing job considering the limitations they are under. This is a refresh of the 370Z and not a whole new car. The budget for this refresh was around $240 million from what I've heard. A whole new chassis would cost over a billion. I even like the refreshed 370Z interior. Everything is in the same spots as before. The turbo impeller speed gauge is very cool. The turbos can get up to 240,000 rpm which is mind-blowing. I even like the rectangular grill. Stark and modern. This is how you do a modern take of beloved models from the past. As a current 370Z 6MT owner and former 300ZX 5MT owner, I am extremely pleased with what they have done. It's a miracle they are going to make this car at all.
