I know it's subjective, however it doesn't seem easy to get a good noise out of the new Z 🤷🏽‍♂️ 

 

 

[DoogyRev]

sounds weedy before and does not sound much better after 😂

[GranTurismoEra]

Thats why certain enthusiasts are sticking with NA until we have to go electric or alcohol...

 

I went in a £100,000 911 base Carrera. Lots of swooshing, soft induction sucking and hissing going on. 400+ hp. Looks the business, goes well.

 

The you got older GTS NA and other naturally aspirated cars that arent as quick but make a great sound at mid range to top end

 

I guess have to make a choice of power vs near full package when spending average money. All things considered at some point could get it all depending on what you like

Decent power for average money ...... and a great sound track, I got something that fits that bill sitting in my garage 😂

 

P.S its even louder now I have had an X-Pipe fitted, but that said, quiet mode is still just that. Happy Days

Not Official.

People are still waiting for their cars a year later in US, Canada, Japan and Australia. Disastrous launch. Anywho Nismo in camo

350Z will end up being the keeper in years to come. Especially if you want to start collecting 😂. I think ill look for a well taken care of HR eventually to keep. 

 

I want to stay NA as long as possible. Nothing beats the sound of a naturally aspirated engine. 

 

The comments on the video says it all about staying old school.

Youd be doing a huge favour if you could pop in the dealership and get us a video maybe even bag a test drive 😎.

 

Sure tire kicking but still 😆. Would be good to hear your thoughts.

The cars available to rent in Japan apparently.

Makes sense to do so

I will keep an eye out at the local dealer, I don't think they will hang about too long in showrooms.

 

A test drive won't be a problem, more so if I turn up in the 'Stang 😂

Can compare both cars. Which Z did you have in the past?

I had an 07 Rev-Up 350z

I am in North America end of June staying with the in-laws in Connecticut so will try again at a couple of Nissan dealers there to find one.

@DoogyRevlooking forward to seeing what Australian owners do with their Zeds. I think theres a huge Z following there.

ISR returns

 

 

[GranTurismoEra]

Cheapest Z right now i saw in Japan was £42000 and that was the ST Automatic in White with few miles on. So maybe depreciation will take a different path from the Supra 🤔

The more reviews i see the more im convinced the car will need Tires, Suspension and Exhaust minimum to be bought up to standard. Not to mention an aftermarket front bumper. Looking at a cool £5000. After spending £40,000 to get the car to the ship.
