My local Australian Nissan dealer was told that the US 400Z will be manufactured in the US but ours will come from Japan.

Can anyone confirm that some will be built in the US?

He is a moron, sorry. All Z's are made at the Tochigi plant in Japan. The engine is made at Iwaki, Fukushima, Japan. Nissan has no factory in the US where they would have an assembly line for a Z. They make sedans, SUV's, pickups, and commercial vans in the US.

Z31 Anniversary Edition in the foreground!

The fact that the yellow will only be produced for 240 units makes the middle class wannabe gucci part of me want one.

That said, if I don't score one of those, a PPW will get my pre-order. Pretty identical to the Proto and I'm alright with it, despite the grille. Who's with me?

Good gosh Nissan what have you done:

"Vehicle speed-sensitive electric power steering (electric rack)"

If anyone has driven a Q60 you know how dead the steering in that car feels. It just sucks the life out of the car completely.

I agree 110%. But it's not a surprise. Huge down side for me.

There are a bunch of upgrades everyone is talking about, but electronic variable steering (a MONSTER down grade for a sports car IMO) is being swept under the rug. This change is at least an equal negative to gaining 70hp, for me, IMO. It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if the new Z outperforms in terms of numbers, but the old 370Z outperforms in terms of driver satisfaction and fun to drive. Just like when BMW and Porsche made the switch. No more true "drivers cars."

Such a bummer.

I agree I'm pretty upset after seeing that. Unless they did some magic the car is ruined with that. I test drove the Q60 and I actually thought the car was dangerous because if the electric steering I couldn't tell how much input I was giving the car. I'd probably kill myself driving it on the highway much less a track with that kinda steering. Everyone who hasn't should find a Q60/Q50 to test drive it with and you'll understand. I'm really bummed with Nissan they gave us a turbo with a manual but couldn't keep the 370z steering I don't understand.

The blue does something for me.

Shame I don't have space for 2 (nice) cars.

1/4atatime · 08-17-2021, 07:58 PM

I'd like to see what the actual numbers are a 15% 0 to 60 improvement seems good

Simple math would dictate a low 4sec 0-60 time.
