Nissan launches 370Z Nurburgring Edition in Europe - [2009 Nissan 370Z] - MotorAuthority - Car news, reviews, spy shots

In Japan and the U.S. the Nissan 370Z is available in a high-performance Nismo trim but for European fans the specially tuned coupe is strictly off limits. As some solace, Nissan is offering its European customers a special edition model named after Germany’s renowned Nurburgring circuit.

The special edition model is inspired by the yellow Nissan 370Z race car that took part in the recent Nurburgring 24-hour race. It features a number of performance modifications and is limited to just 80 examples. Not surprisingly, pricing of the vehicle reflects this limited availability and has been set at €50,400 (approximately $71,280).

Each vehicle features a numbered plaque, as well as unique 19in OZ Racing alloy wheels shod with 285mm tires in the rear and 255 tires up front, plus a Cobra performance exhaust system. A special ring card with €150 ($212) of credit will also be offered to customers, which they can use for public track days on the Nurburgring circuit.

Apart from the new exhaust system, the car’s powertrain has been left untouched which means it features the latest 3.7L V6 engine with 332hp (247kW) and 270lb-ft (366Nm) on tap. Nissan’s six-speed manual with the SynchroRev Match function is standard.

$71K for a numbered plaque, exhaust and a $212 credit at Nurburgring? Achtung baby!

I love that they make an edition named after a track that Nissan has yet to test the stock version of the vehicle on.

Wow you get to buy a stock Z for the price of a GTR, what a deal!

Totally! I use that line all the time, and I'm not even an ATC!
