An oil cooler has been added for the 2012 model year as standard equipment. The previous 370Z Roadster base model with 6-speed manual transmission is no longer offered, leaving three choices: the 370Z Roaster with 7-speed automatic, and the 370Z Touring with 6-speed manual or 7-speed automatic.

The Z Roadster shares its engine, transmissions, suspension, platform and most major components with the popular hardtop model.

The 370Z Roadster’s roof was designed to provide a sleek silhouette matching the Z?’s stunning styling with the top up or down, while offering an easy, single-action open-close operation. The top also provides an enjoyable top-down experience with reduced wind turbulence and all-climate driver/passenger comfort.

Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Prices* (MSRP) for the 2012 Nissan 370Z Roadster include:

370Z Roadster 7AT $39,500 USD

2012 Nissan NISMO 370Z
The dynamic Nissan NISMO 370Z, a tuner-Z® enthusiast’s dream once again caps off the 2012 370Z lineup – offering 350 horsepower, racing-inspired exterior and interior styling, a specially tuned suspension and unique super-lightweight forged alloy wheels.

The NISMO 370Z’s 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. Only one transmission is available, a close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission with standard SynchroRev Match™, which allows rev-matched heel-toe-like downshifting.

The NISMO 370Z also features a refined 4-wheel independent suspension, NISMO-branded strut tower brace for enhanced body rigidity and a pair of performance dampers to manage road-input vibrations and help contribute to the NISMO 370Z’s high levels of stability and performance feel. The NISMO-tuned suspension includes special springs and stabilizer bars.

Unique 5-spoke 19-inch RAYS forged aluminum-alloy wheels are mounted with Yokohama ADVAN Sport Y-rated high performance tires. Nissan Sport Brakes and a Viscous Limited-Slip Differential (VLSD) are also standard on the NISMO 370Z.

The 2012 NISMO 370Z offers a number of functional and fully integrated aerodynamic body pieces, including an extended front nose, integrated chin spoiler, special side sills, a unique rear bumper and functional rear spoiler. The interior includes NISMO logo seats with black and red fabric and red stitching, a NISMO tachometer, steering wheel with smooth leather and red parallel stitching, smooth leather wrapped shift knob and aluminum trimmed pedals. A serialized plaque of authenticity is matched to each NISMO Z®, identifying its unique serial and model year designation.

good thing I've waited. I wonder if there will be any body parts differences.

Wow nice

Of course the base increased ~800. Dont remember how much it increased in years past. Still nice they are paying some attention at least

Davey

I wonder if the oil cooler is any good, and if I can get it easily retrofitted to an '11 model at the dealer with full factory warranty...

toddvk

I think everyone should bombard Nissan with questions/demands to retrofit all prior 2012 model year 370Z's with the new oild cooler. I just sent them a email and comment to the fact.

scottIN

Sweet...I get an oil cooler.
$800 is about a 2% increase so not as bad as I was thinking (3%)...and I get the oil cooler.

enkei2k

isn't the pricing the same? I'm on the Nissan website now and the MSRP for a 2011 base is 31,450, same as what's for the 2012..unless I'm missing something?

Davey

What email address did you send it to?

I will send them one, too. Not that it will do any good. If I could somehow convince them that it was going to cost them a couple of million dollars to not do it maybe, but otherwise...

azn370z

Nice info about the oil cooler. I want pictures.

And may I add let's have no more bitching about no oil cooler from owners and journalists.

I just went to the Nissan USA website and went to the "contact " section. You can send them a email from there. My email basically said that I see the 2012 now comes with a oil cooler and that must confirm the fact that the car needs a cooler. Would they do the right thing and issue a recall to retrofit all 370z's with coolers. Maybe if enough people write in, they would get the point and cave.

Davey

Done. I didn't ask for free but I strongly urged that they make a retrofit available at a reasonable price.

Chances are though the stock unit will be a POS that won't do anything anyway, so before I hold my breath or even paid to have one installed I'll see what the car mags have to say about the 2012.

toddvk

Davey, I did the same thing. I asked Nissan if they were not going to do the right thing and retrofit cars with coolers, if I decided to put a cooler on myself, would they void my warranty. That is my fear, I would have installed one myself by now but get the feeling if anything happened to the car with the new VVEL valvetrain, they would void the warranty due to a cooler and slip out of having to fix it on their dime. I see the dealer saying something like "you have a valvetrain issue but due to oil starvation from the oil cooler YOU installed, no warranty".
