I have a '24 Nismo- awesome car! Your criticisms are so gay, I wonder when you got neutered! I get more compliments on this car than any of the dozens of cars I've owned. Soon it will be a GT-R beater and still half the price, and look like a retro 240 which I love. A lot of the "outdated" fluff tech you guys diss, a lot of us still love for the retro feel. Something for everyone, I'm just glad I kept my balls long enough to buy my Nismo.

You've never loved a Japanese sports car enough to understand half the stuff you trashed on the Z

You actually explained why the gas door is so big... So that the gas pump would come in contact with the area under the gas lid instead the actual fender. I'll take the big lid versus scratches on the exterior paint. And besides, it doesn't affect the actual experience in anyway. Supra's is pretty sizable too.

Should have done your homework before you bought it. I've had my 77 280z over 40 years. Doesn't have adjustable seats, dual climate control, not the fastest,etc.. but it's fun to drive. You've missed the whole point. Go buy a Tesla son.

The fact that my wife can't see to drive it should be the #1 reason to buy it.😁

I've heard the capless gas tanks cost quite a bit to replace when the seals go bad. I'd rather have a normal gas cap.

I love the new Z! Sure, like every car there are certain things that could be better, but the pros definitely outweigh the cons in my personal opinion. This car has so much nostalgia packed into one car, literally everyone loves it.

Used to hate a lot of these "Dont buy this car" videos but as the meta of car youtubers shifts to selling the car rather than actually reviewing it, I started to appreciate the more honest reviews.

Three minutes into the video… If it’s not broke, don’t fix it. The key fob has a battery, a couple of buttons and a key just in case. I don’t recall the Z series ever claiming to be a luxury vehicle of any kind. If I’m not mistaken, I believe I’ve watched one of your previous videos where you bashed the 370, sketchy… Are you a Z owner and purchaser or do you operate under the guise of such to discredit a fair priced, punchy, underrated sports car?

the beginning where you're talking about the gas tank door was hilarious. literally looks like a paper plate

Would you just look at it? Just look at it!

I'd would like to see the improved version of your Nissan Z, although it would weigh another 300 lbs, and it wouldn't be much of a sports car anymore.

The Z car is a tuners car, its meant to be modded, this is the first car since the Z32 that actually looks good in my opinion. You go to the back and you see the 300zx tail lights, then it looks like a 240z style on the front. Otherwise it has all the same features except a TT that is reliable and setup already, and a much higher hood and 19” rims. Typical Z style grille, small little window behind the doors, the same bar that goes across where the speakers normally are in an older Z. Hopefully when you turn the motor up, it doesnt make it sound like a 370z though. If the Z community doesnt like this one, they will be just as happy with their older Z’s that dont even have cupholders, and we dont care about that either

Why would the key change? It works does it not? And if you don’t like the car wth did you buy it?

I have a 370 and the filler handle would scratch my wide fender every time I fill up the car. Somebody at Nissan thought ahead on this one.

Really is a beautiful car...I want one, but don't love the 1-2 gear grind and some of the other things I've seen. Hopefully everything gets figured out in the next couple of years.

Just bought a new sport model last week. 01/24. No gear grinds on mine at all. I will say when you first get in the car it's easy to miss fourth and go back down into second, but once you get used to the gear range it's no problem. Just be careful speed shifting the manual. I love mine and the acceleration is massive. You can really fell when the turbos light up. As long as you keep you RPM's above 2500 they are readily available. Probably a dual scroll turbo that picks up quicker on a small turbo. Then the bigger one really rockets you down the road. I'll have to check that out. BUT....no gear grind.

Nissan/Infiniti decided to stop selling Q60RS which was 10 years in the market but still better than the new Z, SO they can sell the new Z with the price of Q60RS without AWD & luxury interior. This’s so disappointed me. I don’t know how’s going there but in my country (Australia), the new Z is so much overpriced.

Anyone in these cars with a manual is feeling the pain

Very nice and explained talking points. Thanks

The fact that it's 50k and still has incandescent map lights really hits a nerve lol. Great video keep the content rollin✌️

Bro the way you explained the dish gas cover is funny as hell 😂

Hit up John and Bonnie&Clyde Racing for way more power and exhaust options

The new Nismo Z is the one they should have built for everyone. It’s a differant car that the performance. And you said 2023 and they are still using a gas cap? What else would they be using? If just the suspension and exhaust were redone on the performance it would be much better.

Good info!!

The only complaint I have is in the Nismo they could easily have squeezed out 450 hp and 400 lb ft of tourque. They could have put some new pistons in the engine or bored it to like 3.1 or 3.2 liters.

Im not surprised by any of this, Nissan's MO is basically being 5-10 years behind the competition. 😂

@brettbradford3504 perhaps not, but this video wasn't about the drive was it?

I’ve only watched about the first 30 seconds of the video. If you thought the gas door was so obtrusive, why did you buy the vehicle. It seems like a big issue for you or is this a bashing video and you actually work for someone else? And also, it’s a gas cap. We’re not trying to reinvent the wheel. They work. Plus, I would rather something screw over and securely seal the entryway into the basic lifeline to my engine. I feel much better about that.

It qould be nice if you compare it with Q60.

I own the 24 model... The gas cap is still huge and the key doesn't have Z

Supra is a faster car obviously. It has one of the best engines BMW currently has in their lineup. If you could find a sport trim bare bones, at sticker and put about $7500 into after market performance bits in rubber, suspension, intake and exhaust no think it’s still a pretty fair value in 2023. All things considered…Looks wise, comparatively speaking. I bought the 350Z straight of the showroom floor of Glendale z Nissan in L.A. in Oct of 2002. 6-7 years without the Z in their lineup, that car was highly anticipated and was a real performer for its day and if you bought the right trim, an absolute value. I bought the base, all engines were the same throughout the 5 trims for the 03’ MY. $27,995 MSRP. There was a markup on it due to the insane demand. 287 HP out the factory. Mustang GT made less I wanna say around 250-275 range. Camaro was on its way to retirement so they were marked up too in L.A. at least. Such a phenomenal car. Buy the right spec and it’s really a fair value for performance. Supra interior is nicer for sure but it’s also more expensive. In reality, good luck getting any brand new Supra with the B58 at MSRP. Especially a manual. The Z with s manual and 400 HP can be had for around $42k right now in many markets. The Supra is almost in another league playing with the big boys like the Mustang and Camaro. I’m some reviews it’s even a tick faster believe or not in a straight line. And the Mustang MACH 1 destroyed the Supra on a track tested by Car and Driver. Which is kind of a role reversal of why you buy those two cars. If you view the Z from a stand alone view at $42k and can add a few $ after market and keep it around $48k all told. I feel it’s a Greta value. It also looks great. Stunning! Except for that damn front end. I can’t do it. It looks ridiculous. Like some POKÉMON fish or something. Just very Japanese, obtuse stylistically. But hey, it will be in front of most cars on the road so should be a non issue

I want my braincells back

This Z is the same old 350Z from 20+ years ago just with the most basic as expected modern twists, but nothing mind blowing. They’re probably using the same machines that made the body parts on the 300z

T-Top? Stupid, this is a 240Z/Fairlady reinterpretation. I know, you weren't even planned then, but take look at 240Z, 260Z and 280Z, and you'll understand. Exhaust is a thing of regulation's especially when choosing the manual version. With manual gearbox is whisper time

It’s because they used the previous chassis with different fenders

Poor guy. His girlfriend can’t even see.

not having the Key holder makes no sense

You are right the Z is better looking than the Supra and the Corvette. I wish they had another rim option though. I like the black but I would like to see some differant color rims. If I bought 1 I would try and get the Nismo if not I’d get the performance and put a new exhaust on it and new suspension on it and maybe put that bigger oil cooler on it that the Nismo has. If I could really go crazy with it I would have the engine pulled and bored to 3.2 and put new titanium pistons and a differant cam in it. It would be pretty easy to squeeze 450 hp out of this engine. It would t be too hard to get 500 but 400-475 is the sweet spot.

i don't think you've looked at a Corvette with your eyes open? I love some Z's, not this new one, but a C8 is stunningly more sports car and aggressive and classy and sophisticated looking than any new Z, and the interior of a vette is about nine times more regal, inviting, exciting, and engaging and comfortable....the Z is honestly a HUGE compromise of bad judgement from Nissan....has potential...but needs a new front end, better materials, should have been redesigned about three more go rounds at the pow wow meetings to really refine it.

They do offer a Nismo version.

Bitching about quality when your audio sounds like that 😂

I like nissan keeping things original from previous models like the interior almost similar. Hey Toyota's best vehicle, the 4 runner has been the same since 2014 on the interior, just with little tech innovation an styling, just like the z.

In Australia, this costs 87-95 grand depending on the extras and transmission you choose. For what you get with the interior and everything, this seems like a rip off for me. The Supra in about 10 grand more but you get a very nice interior and car overall..

I dont think people realize why you shoild buy this car but let me explain WARRANTY yes its CHEAPER to buy a 370 and turbo but you aint going to get WARRANTY ontop of that you need liquid cash for that people can easily pay a 7k down payment and they will have a new z all said and done

Its more worth it to get a 370z and mod it honestly. You probably be at 50k all said and done. Why tf does the back look like a mustang...deal breaker.

lol why did you buy it because you seen it when you first saw it ? This is how you grab attention of your views and it worked

It is a "parts bin" car. Same old platform with an old suspension. Nissan almost went bankrupt a few years ago. And all they could afford was a "reskinned" Z. Look at the air ducts. They're the same as the last gen car. I don't like the Z or the Supra. But the Supra will handle better.

The only problem i can see is that its a auto.

As a owner of a 23 PROTO and 24 Nismo Z. Some i agree, some i don't. Meh i found this video overall. Keep grinding tho.

The only way to go is base model with your own upgrades. The performance model is idiotic and the new Nismo model is ridiculous. a base model, a couple years from now when they hit the used market, I would buy one for 35k. no more. And then spend a few grand with a Z1 and CZP like I did with my 350Z. that ludicrous performance model should be plus 5K and the nismo should be another plus 5K. these prices are insane. The difference between the base and performance? Will the parts they put on the performance are what should have been in the base in the first place! I don't want that shit for suspension anyway so why buy the upgraded model for over 10 grand? JFC... honestly, I like the look of it, I also like it a little better than the 370Z roofline, but performance is not acceptable. therefore, if I'm replacing all of the suspension and bushings myself anyway, might as well start off with the base model.
