And needs way better looking non-1980s Camaro looking wheels. Stirthepot.

But it does look better without that stupid afterthought straight edge spoiler. Cleaner without it.

And I like the color. Too bad Nissan paint quality typically sucks.

LOL!! You do realize that “straight edge spoiler” is actually functional, doncha? Just kidding, of course you don’t. No offense, but this is getting old. We get it. You hate it. Time to move on.

That is pretty nice. I would have been tempted to go for my first ever red car with the Passion Red Tricoat. It looks close to Soul Red.

I love it, but!! I would want to keep my FI exhaust and 2014 Sport wheels/tires...

As far as paint goes - a clearbra on the entire hood / front bumper was well worth it

I like the BRZ also but not doing it because they're not available unless a long wait and I'm just not into that. Looking like same with 400z.

You are asking the wrong guy as I am being ridiculed here for my opinions. As go forums like this. Oh well.

But I'll lay it out with the plus sides only.

All JMO of course.

New Z
- Faster
- 9 Speed auto
- More electronic gadgets
- 2 center arm rest cup holders
- Exact same upper body shape as 370 Z (front window, A pillars, side windows, B pillers, with same slope to rear hatch)
- New car warranty

370 Z
- Better looking body (subjective)
- Shorter
- Better looking wheels (less subjective)
- Better sex appeal for picking up chics (easily)
- Better looking steering wheel (by far)
- No "forced down our throat and more costly 2 tone paint schemes"
- More reliable engine (fact)
- Old school hydraulic steering assist (more sports car feel)
- Hard to believe but stock exhaust actaully sounds better (subjective)
- Less electronic gadgets
- Better 5 tiered pricing structure with Nismo option
- Will be a classic desired car in the future, only second to the original 240 Z

That's what I can think of at the moment.

How would you feel paying $55k for a new Z only to get beat by the old NA one with some boltons on it

According to this site: https://calculator.academy/whp-to-hp...tor/#f1p1|f2p0
400hp is only 340whp.

Most of us with basic boltons and tune are 10 or less whp away from that already and we weigh less.


Edit: Unless the new Z comes out with underrated hp of course.

I don't believe that will be the case - with that torque that the new Z offers - it will get to 60 much faster than a FBO NA 370z. For instance (believe he has his story on here as well) Noir winded up doing a Q60 Motor swap - and even having a boost leak - he was beating FBO Z's by busses. I get what you are saying - the amount to buy the new Z vs keeping one that is already pretty quick (quick/speed is all relative) - but I don't believe a FBO Z would keep up with a stock Z with the torque and the HP advantage. Just my .02

I could really get on board with the new Z styling if this were production models, sans park bench wing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5M2cDnOFFc

That's so "Factory Fresh!". I knew you'd come around... even with that black roof. LOL!
