2013 Nissan 370Z Updates - Just facts, no BS.
 
I'll try to keep this post updated as facts come in.

The updates for the new model year include:

a slightly changed front end that includes LED running lights, a slightly changed rear end, and some new wheel options.
No performance or engine changes in this 2013 refresh.

• Refreshed front fascia with vertical LED daytime running lights
• Red reflector added to rear fascia (replaces previous black center cover)
• Revised 19-inch aluminum-alloy wheels (Sport Package equipped models)
• New 18-inch wheels for 370Z Coupe
• Red-finished brake calipers (Sport Package equipped models)
• Dark-finish fuel gauge trim
• Euro-tuned shock absorbers (Sport Package equipped models) - Probably the same as the Euro GT version. Forum user 'bvl' says, "Traditionally, european cars with sport suspensions are a bit firmer then US sport suspensions."
• And two new exterior colors – Magma Red and Midnight Blue
• It is pure sex.
• It is hot.
• It is loud.
• It is rough.

The NISMO 370Z
• brake ducts (?)
• new Bose Premium Audio Package with two additional speakers and two subwoofers,
• premium gun metallic dark-finish 19-inch wheels,
• and Nissan GT-R style high-rigidity brake hoses and performance brake fluid.
• does not adopt the new front fascia/rear reflector, Euro-tuned shocks or Midnight Blue exterior color.
• red calipers

Same engine/trans specs as other years:
As in 2012, the 2013 370Z Coupe and 370Z Coupe Touring will each be available with a standard 332-horsepower 3.7-liter DOHC V6 engine and choice of 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed automatic transmission. The 2013 370Z Roadster and 370Z Roadster Touring will be offered with the same engine but with the 6-speed manual offered only with the Touring model (the 7-speed automatic transmission is available with both).

The Nissan NISMO 370Z, will once again cap off the lineup – offering racing-inspired exterior and interior styling, a specially tuned suspension and unique super-lightweight forged alloy wheels. Its 3.7-liter DOHC V6 engine is matched with an exclusive H-configured exhaust system design, muffler tuning and optimized ECM (Engine Computer Module) control – creating 350 horsepower and 276 lb-ft of torque. Only one transmission is available, a close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission with standard SynchroRev Match, which allows rev-matched heel-toe-like downshifting.

Additional details on the 2013 Nissan 370Z will be available closer to the June on-sale date.

good info repped

nmjaxx9 02-10-2012 12:33 PM

Did I already miss it or is there any pics of the base wheels?

DLSTR 02-10-2012 01:28 PM

Well done and thanks for posting. The front is growing on me even more. The smooth no fang look is very nice.

I like the unbroken look in that area and the lights are a nice touch. That is the color I will order. I cant wait until they are avail!

I do like my 2010 and this is even better.

southercadesi 02-10-2012 09:53 PM

That is a beautiful color! Anyone find pictures of the "midnight blue"?

the 2013 370z isn't the first nissan to feature midnight blue. it's a color code they have used in the past.

^Ya the midnight blue looks good. I love colors that are close to black.

Ridgerunner 02-11-2012 10:22 PM

I noticed Nissan heard the complaining, the fuel gauge is blacked out now.

I know this is a fact(s) thread. Just did a quick PS of the possible blue and it looks sharp. I think those that miss the "Fangs" (including myself) I added them back (painted them from black to the car color) I have to say that I think this car looks sharper with the fangs + the led lights, although I do miss the original sport wheels. What do you think?

Please use this tread as reference if you see a new thread posted with the same topic (meaning, show them this thread). Stickied. Thread strictly dedicated to 2013 370Z pictures, videos and review from various sites. Thanks

this kit looks very similar to the 2013 redesign, albeit a more agressive (and ugly) front end
