For the last several years, most of the news out of Nissan revolved around the GT-R. In the meantime, development of the 2010 Nissan 370Z went on largely unnoticed. Now the final prototypes are out and our spy shooters caught this exclusive footage.
Unlike the cobbled-together prototypes that appeared years ago, this 370Z wore production bodywork. The boomerang-shaped headlights are the most obvious change up front, although the grille appears to have some small changes as well. The unique headlights first appeared on the 2009 Nissan Maxima, so expect to see them on additional Nissan models in the future.
From the side, the 370Z has a much flatter roof line that mimics the design of the GT-R, while a reshaped rear-quarter window adds to the effect. Then there are the bulging wheelwells that give this Z an even more aggressive stance than the current models. The rear end gets only minor changes that include a new set of taillights and a mildly revised fascia.
As the name implies, the 370Z will get a 3.7-liter V6 good for around 330 horsepower. A six-speed manual will continue as the standard transmission, but a new seven-speed automatic will be optional as well. Interior shots reveal a new set of paddle shifters behind the steering wheel, so the automatic could become an even more popular option.
Set for an official world debut at the 2008 Los Angeles Auto Show, the 2010 Nissan 370Z looks like it will continue to deliver serious sports car performance in an even smaller and more unique-looking package.
