2011 Nissan 370Z Coupe/NISMO 370Z
Now entering the third year of its latest generation design, the 2011 Nissan 370Z Coupe remains one of the most vibrant and dynamic sports cars available in North America. The 370Z Coupe is again available in three models, 370Z Coupe and 370Z Coupe Touring and the NISMO 370Z, which features unique performance and design attributes.
Enhancements for the new model year are limited to the addition of one new exterior color, Gun Metallic, and the addition of RearView Monitor to the 370Z Touring’s optional Navigation Package.
The 370Z and 370Z Touring are each available with a standard 332-horsepower 3.7-liter DOHC V6 engine with Variable Valve Event and Lift Control (VVEL) and choice of 6-speed manual transmission with an available SynchroRev Match™ synchronized downshift rev matching system or a 7-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. Crisp handling is provided by a refined 4-wheel independent suspension.
The dramatic 370Z interior utilizes an innovative driver-centric three-layer design which groups items by how a driver sees information, operates the controls and is held in place – so drivers feel completely connected and engaged whenever and wherever they drive.
Available technology features include the enhanced Nissan Hard Drive Navigation System with 7-inch VGA touch-sensitive display, 9.3GB Music Box®, USB connectivity and iPod connection, XM NavTraffic with Real-Time Traffic Information and XM NavWeather™ (XM subscription required, sold separately), automatic phonebook download (select phones) and Bluetooth Streaming Audio; Nissan Intelligent Key™ and a Bluetooth Hands-free Phone System.
The limited production NISMO 370Z features 350 horsepower and 276 lb-ft of torque, exclusive H-configured exhaust system design, racing-inspired exterior and interior styling, a NISMO-tuned suspension and special super-lightweight forged alloy wheels. As expected of a true performance machine, the NISMO 370Z is offered with only one transmission – a close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission with SynchroRev Match™.
The NISMO 370Z also features unique 5-spoke 19-inch RAYS forged aluminum-alloy wheels mounted with Yokohama ADVAN Sport Y-rated high-performance tires, Nissan Sport Brakes and a Viscous Limited-Slip Differential (VLSD).
The NISMO 370Z stands out from the 370Z and 370Z Touring with functional and fully integrated aerodynamic body pieces (including an extended front nose, fully integrated chin spoiler, side sills, a unique rear and functional rear spoiler). The interior includes NISMO logo seats with black and red fabric and red stitching, a NISMO tachometer, aluminum trimmed pedals and serialized plaque of authenticity.
The 2011 370Z Coupe and NISMO 370Z go on sale in October 2010.
