I’m not sure how long I can keep believing that this car is actually in production

As someone who owns a Supra, the Z is definitely a bit of a hard sell in the current market. I agree with Topher in that it should of been priced just a little bit less and it would be a SOLID buy for what you get. Excluding issues with dealerships, Nissan's production line and the MSRP, it's not a *bad* car by any means and if you're blessed enough to be able to afford cars in this price range, you're winning no matter what. I guarantee you Z owner's are smiling every time they get in their car to drive as are the Camaro owners, Super owners and anyone else in the price range.

Enjoy it while we got it boys, they're phasing these cars out soon and in another 5-10 years we'll likely only see EV's for sale and in another 20-30 years we'll look back at cars like these as classics and legends of their time.

I see this Nissan Z in person and it's really looking beautiful 👌

Good luck finding one of these for $52, 000. They’re more like $70k to $90k after the insane markups

It’s a great street car. The only time I saw one though was at a C&C and it was one of the best looking cars there imo. But it’s still hilarious to me how everyone hyped this up to “show Toyota how it’s done” and it’s done nothing but fall short. Stop sales before production, paint issues etc. If the GR Supra launched in this state, we wouldn’t have heard the end of it. I wouldn’t mind a base model but I’ve seen them all marked up to 50k.

I think the car is beautiful, but I agree with the general consensus that it’s a little overpriced. This would’ve slotted nicely for a buyer who wanted something a little more powerful, bigger then a BRZ/GR86 but not as expensive as a Supra, M2, Camaro Etc. It should’ve been a $43, 000-45, 000. Then if a Nismo version where to come out price that at $55, 000-65, 000

Seeing makes me believe a Q60 400RS with a manual would’ve been such an amazing car. Just like the G35/37 coupes used to be the siblings of the 350/370 and had such a huge following. Its really what kept infiniti relevant tbh. Having the ability to make the Q60 a proper enthusiast sports car and just tossing that opportunity out the window is sad. I miss the old G coupes. Perfect for those who wanted Z performance but just needed a little bit more practicality. I miss mine :(

Good job Nissan, the limited production run of 3 cars a year will keep the values high. I heard there was a sighting of a yellow one in Canada...

As a resident of Michigan my entire 55 years, it's truly embarrassing the condition of many of the roads here. Awesome review though and love the new Z.

I love how the vents are on the doors I just think that looks super cool.

I was so excited when I first heard about the new Z. Twin turbo 6 cyl, 6speed, 40k....I was SOLD. Then it came out, and I was disappointed. Too much money for those performance stats and needed upgrades for track duty. Based on all of the rave reviews and price, I decided on the 6M Camaro SS 1LE and couldn't be happier. The car is an animal and I love taking people for rides and letting others drive it to see their memories with a sports car bargain. Thanks for the honest reviews

I didn't realize the Z had an exedy clutch from factory, i have one in my 2003 Celica and it feels great, amazing video Topher, been looking forward to this one😁💯

Love the looks. As a 240 fanboi since childhood, not much to be said about the exterior. I drove all previous incarnations and never found it to be my match, except for the hatch.

Wow!
You really put this Nissan Z to the test. Great driving and video. Just purchased my 2024 performance. I rather watch you driving yours and save mine 😅

Finally bought one in boulder gray at 55k and thats after 2 days of cursing and arguing with the dealer, got offers around eastern US states for as high as 68k, thats why no one sees these on the streets

Tedward and Topher uploading at the same time again (almost)

52k seems a bit much for a carryover platform.

I think you've been spoiled by how good the type R's shifter is. That's why everything else feels too clunky. 😂

Oh wow out of all of the people who have driven this Z on youtube you are the only one ever shown the electric seat part of the Z thank you.

Cost is way higher compared to the old Z. I’ll get a Supra over this.
