As a former owner of a 370Z I want this car to be better. It looks the part, but it’s performance at that price just doesn’t make sense to me. For this price I can get a used C7 Z06 (with not so desirable milage) which will be a lot more fun and based on my ownership of the 370Z, more reliable too.

    Technically, the C8 Corvettes starting price is only 3k more than the Nismo starting price (65,750 vs 68,300). Demand will alter that but, still a crazy comparison.

      I hadn’t thought of that. No way I’d take any Z over a C8 Vette. I wonder who their customer is for the Z?

        Nobody that’s who lol. A mustang dark horse starts at $63,280, so either spend a lil more and get an “almost” supercar or spend a lil less and get a N/A V8 manual 500hp rwd car. Both options are way better than the Nismo, I have no idea who would possibly want it.

          Which is sad, because I loved my 370 and I want so much for this car. But the 370Z Nismo was also too expensive…
