Quick refresher week with the 2024 Nissan Z Performance! This one was equipped with a manual transmission and finished in my favorite spec, blue on blue. It was interesting to see how the 'regular' Z felt after getting to spend some time with the Nismo version. Worth the $55k?

Got mine for $44, 941USD brand new with all on road costs covered. Can't complain.

Here’s what it comes down to, and should come down to: Buy the car because you like it.

I have a Z.

I did eyeball the Supra as well as other American muscle cars, but my purchase came down to this: I didn’t care that a Mustang had more horsepower for less money, I didn’t care that the Supra can do 0 to 60 faster (or is an affordable BMW coupe), I bought the Z because it’s what I wanted. Period. I have always fancied the Datson 240z all the way to the last 370z, and I finally had the means to pick up a Z. That’s it. I’m not racing it, I’m enjoying it. Enjoyment is why we do things in life we choose.

Enjoy your car, enjoy other’s cars. This is what car enthusiasm is about. BUT, if you buy a car to flex, that’s on you. Buying a car based on what gets you looks and attention or what is good on paper over what the heart says, while bashing on those who just enjoy the sport, screams insecurity. 🤫

I just bought mine 2 weeks ago. It's everything i hoped it would be, ride is much better than my old '04 350Z.
Honestly people complaining its not as fast as blah blah blah. Dude this car is very fast, very fun, and im loving it.
The price hurts.. but what decent performance car isnt costly??

Picking up my black Z in a couple days! Thanks for the vid. I waited on a Darkhorse forever but the 6-speed models are catching on fire as of now.

I'm not sure how the blue will look in a few years, I think it will look dated very fast, but time will tell. I have the red trim interior though, if it ages poorly I might re-upholster it in tan.

prices are dipping to 47-49 k for a performancfe, keep on waiting!

[Mattrz]

Such an amazing car, not for everyone but the perfect car/platform for me, can’t wait to get my Blue on Blue 9at 🙏🏻

[dontezcristol]

People are hating on the new Z because it makes all the other everyday sports cars look so rudimentary. My Z is amazingly fun to drive

[ACLMSC]

This vid was entertaining. Great all around video. Hats off to Nissan for releasing this car flaws and all.

[muffinlord]

Can people start addressing the issues with the engine? This shares the engine in the newer infiniti q60-q50 which have been having turbo and engine block issues since 2017. Would love for that to get talked about more so the issues can be addressed in the new z. People already having the issue in the new z😬

[ARentz]

I'm with you on doing donuts in my personal car. Tires are expensive indeed.

One fun thing I did with my girlfriend was I worked the clutch and let her do the shifting from the passenger seat. It was like a human enabled automatic.

[lash]

Think Nissan did a great job on the new Z. If I had bought one I would rename it a 300ZX because that essentially is what it is, a biturbo 3liter bent 6

[flaminspeed]

Almost got one a couple days ago in blue as well. However, the dealership treated me like I low balled them by asking for a bit under MSRP so I walked. Hoping to make a deal for one soon.

[joshuasutton]

Nice ride seen this. Color in town with a hood scoop on it

[paulm]

Great video, man you need a manual trans car in your life again, come on Eddie

[paulm]

Man great video, this is about your roots, manual sports car. Sighhhj

[_Thirteen]

Between the new Z and the 370z, I chose to buy the 370z Nismo MT. I don’t like the rear end of the new Z and the start button by the shifter, to name a few things. All the 370z needs is the Tesla style screen and you’re set. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[paulm]

I hardly ever see these in Atlanta, that s sad. I think if they priced in $40, 000 they may sell a few

[paulm]

Man I miss your days shifting that Ford Mustang’s transmission
