I posted in the pricing and ordering sub topic, but figure I would link it here as well for more exposure to the community.

The 370z is that old car you always wanted and can still get as a new car.

Interesting they went with a 'performance' Exedy clutch. Also trying to play the RJM game and offering the nismo with a light pedal effort version..

Will be interesting to hear some feedback on this..

Wow, 2018 nismo tech is 66lbs heavier compare to 16 and 17 nismo tech.

Thanks for pointing that out. They probably made a lot more updates than written. Well have to wait and see. I think it's sound deadening and some type of interior or spoiler upgrade? Maybe?

I expected this update on the Nismo. I couldn't imagine the "Heritage Edition" couldn't get a racing clutch without it going in the Nismo.

What I think is slightly more exciting are the Dunlop Sport MAXX tires. 20% less rolling resistance should give the Z a pretty nice bump in acceleration. The 2016 Z averaged about 4.9 seconds with the manual. Between the clutch and tires I'm expecting to see a dramatic improvement in manual acceleration and... a mild improvement in the auto. We should see a consistent 4.5 on the auto to 60. Hopefully about 4.7 on the manual. The nismo already gets stronger acceleration over 60meh, as the 18 HP tune affects the car at high revs, not low revs. I'm glad I waited for a 2018. As soon as there's one to test drive, I will hop in and just order. Fukk it. The Nismo is a bigger improvement over the sport, I think?

What boggles me is 2018 price. I think they killed off the no nav nismo. I didn't want that nav. It looks outdated like mad.

UPDATE.

Careful reading shows they cancelled the base nismo. Bad call Nissan. I guess nav was the biggest seller but shyt. Some enthusiasts don't want ANY tech.

New color for regular Z's. Nismo neglected again on a colorless palette. I'm debating I should go auto or get a manual. If I get a manual I guess the 2018. If not, I can get a great deal on a 2017 base sitting on a lot.

Anyone buying a non nismo should get passion red. It has a smoke clearcoat. Should look hot.

I also found this interesting. I may keep this in mind for replacements if I don't decide to go wider..

Picked my 2018 Passion Red one month ago today.It's the Touring Sport Coupe as it's referred to in Canada & the only one I've seen, including checking most of the local dealers. Lovin it so far, lots of new high tech stuff compared to my ex 73 240Z ! Looking forward to the first coat or two of polish to add some depth to the colour.I'm hoping it has the "improved" clutch after all of the threads I've read recently regarding the cs

curious if they redesigned the csc with the new clutch?

knowing nissan they probably re-engineered the entire clutch assembly. (doubt it) because the slave cylinder hasn't changed part number

We can only speculate.
