2018 370Z pricing announced

KCZ

I know, I've read that whole thread. I can't work on my own cars any more due to a back injury (this repair was probably above my pay grade anyway) and it's really hard to find anyone who can do that type of work where I live out in the boondocks. I love my 350Z, but it's 15 years old, and I think I'd like a newer Z before Nissan potentially moves to an I4 TT with the next gen.

I can certainly understand that... but anyone who can do a clutch job can install a ZSpeed HD CSC. =) Good luck!

Nissan at least is giving us something that improves the car again. My old Advan Sports were okay, but they weren't any better than the RE 50's. The S001's were marginally better, but it should have been more aggressive. The Nismo suspension is tight enough to handle a stickier tire without it feeling like it's going to roll over on it's self from the extra stick.

It's gone a long way from the 1st gen Nismo's. 3.91 (3.69 for auto's) gears, Exedy clutch, better tires, recaro seats, GTR brake fluid, hardened brake lines, tech features, and blacked out headlights.

Those are genuine improvements, too bad it took the span of 8 years. An optional package that upgraded the oil cooler, differential, and brake pads would have been an easier sell than the outdated nav system.

Not sure where that 3463 weight is coming from. Nissan put out the 2018 Nismo 370Z weighs 3339lbs. The Auto was 3389.

I still love my 13' Nismo. The color, wheels, body kit, more aggressive suspension tuning, the fact that this is my 2nd Z34, and a rumored new one coming out (whenever or if ever that happens) holds me steadfast.

Interesting, fund a review, and I see the Dunlop tires on it

Nissan has the 2018 on their configurator now. The Nismo comes in magnetic black, with pearl white as a $395 option. No more red or silver. Seriously?

I wish they did a grey

MIDNIGHT Blue!!!

My mind is seriously blown right now. I didn't expect them to take away 2 of the measly 4 color options they provided. The red on red didn't make sense to me, never liked white and black is a pita to maintain. If anything, I was expecting them to add more options such as blue and that dark metallic silver or whatever like some of you already mentioned . The only color I was interested in was silver as well!!
Hmm I'm beginning to think I should purchase soon now as there are only two within a reasonable driving distance from me - still in different states sigh. I wonder what the future of the Z is now. Everyone including myself was wrong. We were all expecting either the end of the Z34 or a TT Z35. Instead we get this.....

I can understand the red. The red on the red accent line just looked stupid. But SILVER? That was the ONLY color of interest for me. I guess I'll be going out today and hunt a Silver 2017, non tech nismo. Nissan just doesn't know **** about ****. Everything is bottom line.

Yes, the choices are a 2017 in the color you want, vs a 2018 in a color you don't want but with the Exedy and Dunlops. As for me, I wanted red. Do they really anticipate selling so few of these cars that it wouldn't pay them to set up to spray some body parts in silver and red? Or God forbid, yellow or blue? You'd think that if 2018 really is the last year for the 370Z Nismo, they'd give us one color option (black and white are not colors).

Rant over.

Is that gun metallic a different color than previous years? Looks darker and more blue in the pictures.

I'm torn between upgrading to a '18 NISMO or just sticking to my plan and purchasing a GTR.. Always loved the NISMO but for that price, I could probably find a used GTR around the same range.

UNKNOWN_370

Street price is$42,000. A used GT-R is 60,000 in questionable condition and maintenance is a lot more expensive.

Actually maintenance costs didn't actually cross my mind so I'm glad you mentioned it; However right after I posted, I saw an article mentioning a new Z will be unveiled this year (sorry if this is old news). Might wait to see what that entails.

Also, do you think I'd be hard to find a used GTR in good condition? Or would you say the original owners just rag them the f*** out then move on? Thanks for the advice guys!

UNKNOWN_370

The lower the miles, the better.
