I am shocked to see how many articles we have gathered in about 1 month :eek: (Nov 19th was the official release date) :driving:

awesome thread and it will be great for the noobs. Rep point for j00 :tup:

wow....that's alot of reviews we found....

it's good to have them in one place

:tup::tup::tup::tup::tup::tup::tup::tup::tup::tup: :tup::tup::tup::tup::tup:

found another

http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-g...html#post12552

That's because this car is so Bad A$$! I bet even Chuck Noris is going to buy one.

So as far as actual times, at a quick glance I saw:

Motortrend: 0-60=4.7, 1/4=13.3
Edmunds: 0-60=5.1, 1/4=13.4
C&D: 0-6=4.9, 1/4=13.5
Road & Track: 0-60=5.1, 1/4=13.7


Not sure what happened with R&T

Was R&T the ones at altitude? Like 1500ft or so?

no actually i was one of the people who helped clear a half mile strip so they could run the car at a base camp at Everest. Nissan wanted to really go after porsche so they thought hell why not at high altitude.
:tiphat:

"According to Nissan, this technology — seen for the first time in a production car — took five years to develop. And let me tell you, it works. A 7-speed automatic will also be available. The 370Z sprints to 60 mph in a scant 5.1 seconds, which bests the old car's mark by almost a half second, and to the quarter mile in 13.7. We performed our tests at an elevation of 1500 ft., so don't be surprised if the car runs a 5.0 or better when we get our hands on one here near sea level."

Wasn't there another recent test where it got 5.5 to 0-60?

I believe that was the review in Quilters Quarterly.

Do you mean 5.3? http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-g...1-14-09-a.html

US News ranked 370z as most affordable sports car...

370Z vs 2010 Mustang

2010 Ford Mustang vs. 2009 Nissan 370Z Comparison Test on Inside Line

Interview: Randy Rodriguez, Designer, Nissan 370Z

CanadianDriver Brands, Industry, Concepts Interview: Randy Rodriguez, Designer, Nissan 370Z

Here's another that came out a week or so ago. It's from drivers-republic.com, a very nice magazine style site from the UK. This article compares a new Z with a 2006 Cayman S (about the same price range) and a new Cayman S.

Driver's Republic - Mission Impossible? 045

Its ranked 4 not 1. The MX-5 (Miata) is #1.

Thanks for the time spent gathering all of this up. I'm here doing my home work and it was a lot of help. ***Leaning further into the 370***

The new May 2009 Motor Trend reviews the Genesis 3.8 Coupe extensively and has a break-down of comparisons between the Genesis and the Mustang GT as well as the 370Z. Attached is a scan from the 370Z comparison...they gave the Z an incredible review in the process. They also posted some of the best skidpad numbers I've ever seen for the 370Z. 1.01g! That's on par with the GT-R.

EVO Magazine 370Z vs. Cayman
 

Posted this in another thread last week. But I guess this is the right place.

Edmunds NISMO 370z First Drive is up.
 

I love the last line "...so if its a toy you're after you'd probably be better off with a Mustang" :inoutroflpuke:

Thers no way this car is 5.5. To 60
When I test drove. I did the stopwatch on a car with only 122 mi on it.
It was the auto. 92f outside about 75% humidity in arlington texas.
Which is about 900 feet above sea level.
We got 5.0 on the first try n 4.6 on the second. Which were about
20 minutes apart n the car was riding at about 190 or 200 degrees on the 2nd run.
The 1st one the car was probably about 30 degrees cooler I think? I had tested the 1st around the corner from the dealership. The second. Going back from a red light on a vacant service road

nice review up at Jalopnik

http://jalopnik.com/5320524/2009-nissan-370z-part-one

I was a bit taken back when the most recent automobile magazine issue
had the 370z at 5.5 sec. with a 14.1 1/4 mile!!! While other magazines
had the 370z at 4.6 with a 13.3 1/4 mile!!! There have been getting wild
differences with the Nismo 370z too..... But the averages says the 370z is
a capable sub 5 sec car, with a mid to low 13 1/4 mile sprint.....

I get consistant 4.8 with mine.. no mods yet either :happydance:

This one here yet?

Lady Vitesse reviews the 370Z... never heard of her before. Intriguing.. what's interesting is it seems like a foreign reviewer (see how she lists the price) yet the flow and phrases used are so American Very hot Nissan 370Z | Lady Vitesse
