So, is this really the latest in the long line of Z Cars? Watch this video and see the Nissan 370Z get put through its paces on a classic Grand Prix track. The 370Z is now one of the most affordable and fun RWD coupes on sale. In NISMO spec this really becomes a beast with an exhaust note nothing short of spine tingling. A great car for drifting as seen in movies such as Tokyo Drift with oversteer available in huge armfuls. Also think .... is the 350Z now a possible future classic now it has been replaced by the 370Z - prices are rock bottom, you won't lose much on depreciation and what a car for the money. Compared to the 350Z, the 370Z has a wheelbase 4 in (100 mm) shorter at 100.4 in (2,550 mm) and an overall length 2.7 in (69 mm) shorter at 167.1 in (4,240 mm). The overall width has been increased by 1.3 in (33 mm), the rear track by 2.2 in (56 mm), and overall height reduced by 0.3 in (7.6 mm). The smaller exterior dimensions and use of more lightweight materials help reduce weight. (Although it should be noted that a 2003-2005 base model 350Z is actually lighter than the 370Z, since Federally-mandated safety features add weight to models produced after 2008). The 370Z features a front aluminum subframe, aluminum-alloy engine cradle, aluminum door panels, an all-aluminum hood, and an aluminum hatch - in short a vision in aluminium. The 370Z was unveiled in 2008 Los Angeles Auto Show, with sales of North American model commencing at Nissan dealers in early 2009. Standard and optional equipment includes 19-inch wheels, Bluetooth, electric seats, limited slip differential, Bose sound system and subwoofer, heated seats, and automatic climate control. Front body torsion rigidity is improved by 10 percent with an extensively revised body structure which includes a new front suspension cradle to reduce front body lateral bending, new rear structural reinforcements, and an underbody "V-bar" to help reduce rear lateral bending. Rear body torsion rigidity is improved by up to 22 percent and rear body vertical bending rigidity is improved by up to 30 percent. Additional enhancements include the use of a carbon fiber composite radiator housing and strengthening of the rear fender and hatch areas. The new structure weighs slightly less than the 350Z. The 370Z uses a front double wishbone suspension, with forged aluminum control arms and steering knuckle, the rear multi-link suspension uses a forged aluminum upper control arm, lower arm and radius rod, the toe control rod is steel and wheel carrier assembly is aluminum.[5] The refreshed 2013 model uses new dampers with the Sport package models. The brakes have been changed from the more expensive Brembo racing brakes to Nissan branded brakes which are manufactured by Akebono.
