370Z - 50th Anniversary Edition

boby370z

If you guys has nothing else to say other then stupidity about the newer model 370Z you can just pass your turn.....

I am proud of my 370Z 2018 passion red (i bought it new) and when i drive it all the time people thoumbs up.

For sure if Nissan ever release a new Z it will probably be to compete the new Toyota Supra (bmw) and the the new Z will brobably cost at that time twice the price....then you will still bashing against Nissan saying they are too expensive and this and that....

When i joined this forum it was to talk positively about my new Z a car that i am a proud owner. I do not care about the next generation a generation anyway that for sure i will not be abale to afford anyway....so please guys stop bashing.

We all love our Z's. It's just that Nissan put out not even a half hearted attempt again. The 40 was nice. But the last 2 left us high and dry. Change the rims, a decal or 2, some different stitching on the seat. They could have added more to it.

What you should realize is that while we all love our Z's, there's quite a bit of frustration out there focused on Nissan for being lazy and giving the appearance of not giving a sh** about this model anymore. Nobody is putting you or your car down (get over it!)... It's much bigger than that. Also, grow a pair and stop whining about other people's opinions... It's pathetic a f!

To each their own. But there are plenty of people here who love the Z. And also hate what Nissan is doing to it. This is a thread about a special 50th anniversary version, of which many of us think Nissan is doing nothing more with it than pissing all over the Z heritage. No one is bashing your 2018.

If you can't afford the next gen Z (which this is not btw), then I'm not sure why are you posting. You have every right to, of course. But those that can afford it have every right to judge it before they buy it as well. And you don't have any right to tell them to shut up about it.

There are tons of other threads on this forum devoted to positive Z thinking. I recommend you just ignore this one

Booby370z, no one is trashing your car. I think your training bra is pinching and that's causing your aggravation. Sounds like time to get some real support.

I don't dislike the 2018-2019 Z's. They're the same exact car that I've loved for the past 10 years. I just dislike the ugly-azz wheels and stupid decals all over them.

Most of the hate is not the car itself, but the changes and direction "Nissan" took which doesn't do the car justice. They are capable of more, but for whatever reason they just chose the laziest route imo.. I think the red looks good, but most of the other changes, nisan could of put more thought into it.

OptionZero

this is absurd

there's no expectation that this board has to love anything and everything nissan does, nor that we have to ignore any flaws about the Z

if you just wanna pat yourself on the back, thats what mirrors are for

Robert, no disrespect to the 370Z at all. It’s still a great car that looks and performs awesome. It’s just that I feel Nissan has lost its way. As good as the Z is now, it’s still 10 years old. If a company wants to maintain excitement about its brand and one of its most revered models, it should try harder than smacking stickers on it to celebrate its 50th birthday. To me, that disrespects the fan base and the heritage they should be really trying to cultivate. If Nissan was serious, they would have put a new front end on it or a real pump in power. Something....anything other than stickers that lets me know “Hey, don’t worry, we still get it. Until the new model comes, here’s something to show that we aren’t giving up.” Stickers show me they are phoning it in. Shame on Nissan, not shame on the 370Z.

Robert, I see that you've received some grief for the above post, but I hope you won't let it deter you and just keep posting. It's nice to see someone take a positive stance, on a topic where it's very easy to be negative.

I swapped my 13 Sport Z for a 2017 BMW M2 about 2 years ago, so I spend more time on that forum. Recently BMW upgraded the engine on the new 2019 M2, which should be a very positive thing. However being a car forum, the peeps with my engine gotta bash the new one, or the one's with the new engine, gotta bash the old one. It's funny actually, when things change, a lot of people aren't happy. Then when things don't change, a lot of people aren't happy either.

I was always happy with and enjoyed my 13 Z. I was also one of the first to get a 13 Sport on this forum and was actually shocked to hear a number of members. People whom I thought were Z enthusiasts on this forum, use the word "hate" in regards to the look of my Z. Yes, they hated the LED's, how dare Nissan eliminate the fangs, it's not a true Z. Yes, they hated the Sport Rims, how dare Nissan replace the straight sport rims with curved ones, it's hideous.

On Rennlist, some of the comments of the new 992, 911 coming out reminded me of when I got my 13 Z. From Z, BMW to Porsche forums, bashing on car forums is just how it is.

Robert, Enjoy your Z, it's a great car

That's a huge huge difference compared to Nissan who has done nothing to the Z in 10 years except add driving lights to the base and Sport models, and change the looks of the Nismo. Nissan did NOTHING to attempt to improve the performance of the Z.

BMW did something within 2 years to help improve the performance. BMW didn't just slap on some ugly useless stickers and call it an upgrade.

ChopsZ, You’re correct, it’s a big difference. Typically, BMW updates chassis, engine and styling on models every 7 years, much better than Nissan. However this 2 year engine update was out of pure necessity. The engine on my 17 M2 could not pass the new European emissions requirement for 2019, thus the installation of the more powerful, slightly detuned engine from the M3/M4.

I personally think this is great, yet there are quite a few on the BMW Forum who don’t share the same opinion as I. Thus the point of my post, some car forum people will bash change whether it’s good or bad and whether it happens or not. Often times this bashing is justified, yet other times it can just get old and be totally uncalled for.

When I read the honest, tough and positive post from boby370z. I knew it would draw some flack, but I appreciated it and wanted him to know it.

This is the only listing I've found so far for 2020. I guess if you call them they'll send you pictures as soon as it gets to the dealership.

They will call you in 2025 with info and images of the new 2026 Nismo LeafZ.
