The Nissan Nismo Z, the track-focused version of the iconic sports car, has arrived, and it's causing quite a stir. While some may lament the absence of a manual gearbox, there's no denying that this machine means business. With a reinforced body, an Aero kit that produces real downforce (although Nissan won't give us the exact numbers), and bigger brakes, this car is ready to tackle the track with gusto.
Under the hood, the Nismo Z boasts an impressive 420 horsepower and 384 torque, thanks to its new tune and overboost function. The nine-speed automatic gearbox has been optimized for faster upshifts and downshifts, making for a more responsive driving experience. And let's not forget the Recaro bucket seats that provide both comfort and support.
On the track, the Nismo Z shines. The steering is sharp, the suspension is firm but not punishing, and there's no sign of understeer. The car handles off-camber situations with ease, and the brake pedal inspires confidence. With consistent high G-forces and impressive performance, this car is a joy to drive.
Sure, there are a few downsides. The lack of a manual gearbox may disappoint purists, and the limited color options are a bit of a letdown. But let's not dwell on what's missing. The Nismo Z is an engaging and fun car that delivers on its promise of track-ready performance. It may come with a hefty price tag, but the improvements made by the Nismo team are deep and substantial. So, if you're in the market for a streetable weekend car or an occasional track day toy, the Nismo Nissan Z is definitely worth considering.
