Differences on 2019 370Z

Wow. I can not believe they did that. Here I was hitting myself in the head because I thought I could have gotten leather seats /cold/hot for the same price

Double check this on Nissans website.

I double, triple, and quadruple checked it on the Nissan website. The 2019 Sport Touring indeed does *not* have either the LSD, or the SRM. The 'Sport' version does, but the 'Sport Touring' does not.

I'm shocked. It's appalling that Nissan would delete the LSD from the Sport touring. So basically, the new Sport Touring is just the old 'Touring' with the rear spoiler from the Sport.

I'd be totally fine without leather seats, but I really wanted the Tech package of the previous 'Sport Tech'.

That certainly rules out a 2019 for me...

You do get the Sport brakes, 19" Rays, Potenzas, and a couple of other Sport doo-dads on the Sport Touring.

I'm feeling the same way about buying a 2019. I also noticed that the 2018 inventory on the Nissan website seems to be dropping quickly over the past month or two. I wonder if it's too late to order a 2018. We'll need to make a move soon.

That's not the same as Nissan's website, where the comparison chart clearly says the Sport Touring coupe does NOT get the LSD or SRM. It would be great if the brochure was actually the correct version. I'm sure the dealers are clueless.

Got it from the dealership yesterday; as it has a breakdown of color options & all types of small details.

jchammond, thank you for posting the pic of the brochure! Now I'm totally confused (even more than I've already been for most of my life...). As KCZ said, the brochure differs from the website, which does indeed say the Sport Touring does *not* come with LSD or SRM.

KCZ, you're right about dealers being totally clueless. I've asked 6 Nissan dealers about this, and the response was exactly the same from each and every one of them: 15 seconds of silence on the phone (as they struggled to comprehend what LSD and SRM are), followed by mumbling something about 'whatever is on Nissan's website'. Big help...

I don't know how to get the real answer, except to actually look at a 2019 Sport Touring and see what it has. But, by then the last remaining 2018's (at least in the spec I want) will probably be gone.

In general, I've found this shopping experience to be the most frustrating of any new car I've ever bought (and I've owned 104 cars in my life, about half of them bought new). I've never experienced such blatant bait-and-switch games on price before as I have with Nissan dealers. What's up with these guys? Nissan itself seems to feed into it with their 'special discounts' for 'recent college graduates', 'military', and 'current Nissan owners'.

What configuration are you looking for? You might want to hurry to get your 2018 as it was such a pain for me to get my 2018 pearl white sport tech M/T. Seems dealerships mostly get the Auto. Which really isn’t worth it.

Yes it does; says everything the sport has+
They just didn’t list them again.

The thing I’m a little upset about is that I could’ve gotten my sport tech with touring features for what I paid. Oh well. Too late for that. I love my 2018 anyway.

Those are prices before any additional options are added,
I’ve seen prices online vary 5-10k on new 17’s & 18’s

Thank you jchammond! I must be going blind... I kept focusing on the specifications and features of the Sport Touring when i went into 'build', which didn't list LSD or SRM.

The 2019 is back on the table - IF I can find a half-way honest Nissan dealer who'll sell it to me without driving me crazy with bait-and-switch games...
