The Z has always been good for that, most people who are Z enthusiasts are never too worried about that. Problem is ever since the nismos came out around 2012 and upwards they are grossly overpriced for nothing special (I liked my 2018 but it was retarded for what it costs.) When it comes to modding them if people arent worried about money then yeah, they are awesome. However the b58 and s58s are insane if you do one or two mods now they pickup so much power per dollar. Its hard to be a nissan enthusiast anymore :(

The problem is the transmission. I bought the M2 with the auto because the ZF8 is such a insane transmission, smooth as silk but shifts hard when you want. The Z nismo feels clunky and dated - that's because it is dated, it's the same automatic they have been using in the 370z which is more than a decade old. If they stick a manual in the Nismo, it's going to be a great car. I loved my 370z Nismo 6-speed.

Same Vr30 engine since 2016. It's an outdated platform, don't why they couldn't closed decked it or some type of engine work. Still the same old engine with shitty turbos, that's coming from a q60rs owner.
As soon as I saw the difference in accelerration my first thought was, "no way there's only a 50hp difference between these 2!". 100 hp is more believeable. Interestingly enough the M2 only managed a 2:56.9 in Car and Driver's lightning track and the Z managed a 2:56.2. Close enough the driver/conditions seem to be the biggest factors. As a die hard Z fan, I still prefer the Z, but hard to suggest getting one over the M2 at the same price 😢

I believe the C&D Lightning Lap also had a significant tire differential between the cars. The Dunlop Sport Maxx tires the Nismo was using during that lap have a 200 UTQG rating, whereas the Pilot Sport 4S have a 300 UTQG rating; if the M2 ran with Cup 2s or Cup 2 Rs, then I believe it would have probably been quite a bit faster.

It would be interesting to see Dyno numbers for each considering BMW typically undervalues hp numbers.
the fact they're the same price is crazy. the Nismo Z is cool, and im glad they made it but its really not in the same league
That 370 putting down that 420 at the timing chain😮.
Saw this at the local dealer while picking up parts. $68K?!?! So many cars are better for the same or less money. Was a big fan of the 300ZX TT. What happened?
Not just HP, gearing as well.
Not surprised, that Z looks good tho and the M2 looks have really grown on me
The fact that the as-tested MSRP is almost identical between these two cars is just……yeah.
Love my G87, probably the fastest thing you can but for under $70k new (other than the EVs), excellent interior quality, and I can still throw my kids in the back. I think the Nissan is priced ok for it's performance, but the M2 is an absolute bargain for what you are getting
S58 is such powerhouse..!! Wanna see ‘M5Cs vs Rs7 performance’
you guys should do explore st vs durango srt not the track hawk
wish y'all were testing the manual M2 vs the manual z
I would love to see the Jaguar Type R go up against some proper sports cars with less power, like a Corvette Stingray or an M2. Also, I only saw the Nissan Z drag race the Supra before the 20hp increase of the NISMO, you could be the first ones to do that drag race.
I love the Nissan Z, but their biggest flaw is their ridiculous price tags.
It's the F type R's last year in production. Could we see it compared to the M2 or M3 .
Liking the U-Drag element ....match the cars better as the M2 was always going to win..
Just realised that these are virtually the same price bracket. Ouch! Though the Z's a refresh, the m2 should have just been one itself & now that m2 is the epitome of "It's what's inside that counts"
We knew how that was going to go
I hope everyone else recognizes the fact that these two guys start every race almost perfectly-it plays an intrical part in the relevance of these races ¿`_
Seems about right. BMW underrates their HP numbers (as do most German manufactuers) while Nissan is usually pretty accurate. Stock M2's dyno ~465whp which is 520hp at the flywheel. That's a 15% underrating zee Germans are doing.
Edmund please do a Camaro SS1LE VS Shelby GT350/R or VS the Mach I or VS the dark horse

Oh yay, more automatics and launch controls. Can’t wait to see theses two ECU’s race each other
Nissan Z car was always compared with BMW Z3/Z4 coupes previously. In this case Z Nismo vs Z4 M40i would be more appropriate... It's like M3/M4 vs. Nissan GT-R the other way around, not a fair comparison.
I’m not mad that BMW “underrates”the HP. Lol It is upsetting when a manufacturer Says it’s a certain HP and you take it to the Dyno and it’s actually not even close… BMW is not lying about the HP they just forgot to put the W before the HP.
0:57 that sounds like my cue. okay so this one looks though on paper, but given how badly the Z has under preformed in other periodical's testing, I can't help but think the M2 will have the edge pretty much during the entire race. Sorry Nismo, I like the idea of your car, but that's my honest opinion on what I think will happen.
S58 motor for the win.
Z has been out for what, a year? Still have not seen one in the wild here in Vegas.

awsome👍
i wasn't expected the m2 loosing lol, when dynoed it has more than 450hp claimed. so it makes an approximately 60hp diffence minimum
I want to see the Z up against a CT4 V Blackwing or a 5 Blackwing
Can we see c8 Z06 vs C7 Z06 , or C6 Z06 ,ZR1
Despite being a Z fan, driving a 370Z Nismo, the latest Z is not what I was looking the successor to be. Shaping of the car is nice, but when being compared to M it just doesn´t achieve that performance level, which it should have compared to the price.
Well, that was expected.
Didn’t even watch the video yet and knew the M2 would be victorious 😅
Last Z that had racing dna was the Z33 even the NISMO 380RS from 2007 is far better than the new nismo and supra gr
Edmunds: what can fly better, an eagle or a bit of dog shit. Thats what this race was.

How long has this Z been out 2 years? Im yet to see it win a single test ever. It would have been great car 10 years ago, now its just at the bottom of anything you can get.
Your leader board not right the black ghost had better times in 7 than the bez in 1 first
In Canada, the prices are right on top of each other. One would have to be completely nuts to buy the Nissan over this M2. Not to mention that you can actually get a manual in the M2 if that is your preference. If anything, buy a base Z, add a rear diff and mod it for $10K to out pace this Nismo.
30 hp shouldn't make that much difference.. looks like somebody intentionally didn't put the Z in sport+ mode or something else is off. I doubt they charge the same price for the 24 year model as well..
Not a fan of either one, but realistically I'd rather have the Z. It's more reliable, practical, and cheaper to maintain. I'd like to see a rematch with both of them on a down pipe and tune (leave the cats on).

That's still very unfair for the Z cause the S58 in the m2 can easily make 700whp+ on stock turbos + with dp can make far more power than a Z can with its stock turbos.
