2020 Z....opinions

Hopefully all the rave reviews of the new Supra being Toyota's best drivers car ever forces Nissan's hand to do a thorough rework of the Z.

I am not trying to be be defensive but the 370Z is still one of the best looking cars IMHO.

I too think the 370z is a beautiful car, but it is hard to convince new car buyers to fork out $40k when you can get a nice used one for about $20k. I hope there will be another iteration of the Z, but it's quite doubtful from the economic stand points. There is no profit in the sport car market. Everyone is buying the cross-overs, suv's and EV's.

on a different point, Just read the test results on the new Supra in 'car and driver' magazine. It looks really nice and fast. It is a bit wider and longer than the z. 1/4 mile time at 12.3 sec, and 0 to 60mph at 3.8 sec. MSRP at $55k. There will probably be $10k markups, but it'll be interested when the hype/price cool down next year or so.

Despite its age, the Z's exterior styling still turns heads. It's the standard equipment that shows the car's age and turns potential buyers away. Driving the Z and my wife's F30 back-to-back really is night and day. The BMW's intuitive touch screen, excellent backup camera, various driving modes, and all the other sh!t people want but don't need actually make it an enjoyable cruiser. It's not fast by any means, but enough to put a smile on my face. I wish Nissan made incremental improvements to the Z over the years to keep it more competitive such as sound deadening, slight increase in power, better infotainment system, etc., instead of just slapping on some decals.

you're right on.... new car buyers want something new regardless of the 'need'. I have the full loaded version of Z and like the interior just fine.... but it is quite dated compared to the newer cars.

Though having a manual tranny will not increase the market value of the vehicle, I do believe it will increase the sentimental value and people will pay top dollar and way more than what it’s worth if equipped with a manual tranny. I think the 370Z will fall into this category.

I can speak from experience on this. I went from a 6MT 350Z to a 7AT 370Z and now a 6MT 370Z bc I missed the manual tranny so much.


There is a meme out there with a picture of a manual gearbox and labeled as “the best anti-theft system”.


I think Nissan made a mistake producing auto Nismo models. Honda doesn’t even make auto for their Si lineup.

it’s a bmw badged under a Toyota. I personally am not a fan of German cars.
