I rather the manual seats but at this price you gotta ask yourself... what are you really paying nearly $60k for?

I don't want to give too much hate, but most of the things described in this video are absolutely unnecessary and unimportant. Yes, engine noise, both in the cabin and from the exhausts, is not something anyone with a v6 car wants to skimp on, and yes, bad brakes are an issue, but we have a few things to think about. First of all, things like the control of the mirrors and the seat, or the wrong placement of the drink holders is an absolutely unnecessary thing to deal with. Yes, this sports car may lack a bit of sportiness, but it still doesn't need excessive luxury. You also have to learn to live with the size of the suitcase. That the appearance is a bit shabby is an individual matter and, moreover, when driving you will see the inside of the car, not the outside. So far, all generations of the Z series have been tunned, so even this car with its v6 engine will be a rarity. Then there will be no more people who hate it, maybe only those who would take it as a classic and not as a sports car. In short, if you just want to look at a car, buy a 100-year-old veteran that doesn't drive much anyway and drink coffee with it in the garage. A video full of unsavory rants failed to deter the purchase, and quite possibly amused that the 15th reason was the brand of the car (which also made no sense). Buy this car, tune It, and enjoy it. And above all, be glad that we still have combustion engines at all, because the design of the new Z is eerily close to electric cars.

Thanks for the honesty! I went from a pre owned 04 350z to a new 09 370z. The wait for this is honestly 😢 Hopefully next full redesign they’ll have R&D $$$

So basically, wait till dealerships can’t sell them and then buy a base model a couple years after, and replace every stock part with aftermarket parts to fix all the shortcomings… You’re really just paying for the engine, a chassis, and the basic necessities. Can’t say I’m surprised. Nissan has always been barebones…

As a car enthusiast who wants to upgrade from a Rogue after I graduate college, into my first (working) enthusiast car, I think it's a lofty goal to buy one of these but not impossible nor necessarily bad. These issues are either things I'm already used to from my Rogue or nonissues for me, like the manual seat adjustment. That being said, if I already owned a 370z I would probably not "upgrade", especially at these price points. And tbh, I might as well keep the 370z in mind given how rare these cars are to actually find at your dealer. It's been nearly a year now I think and they still don't seem to have been made in particularly great quantities. And obviously, little has been done by most manufacturers to crack down on parasitic dealerships. It's definitely amazing how poor the build quality can be on a $50,000 car, manufacturers can't keep using COVID as an excuse for supply chain issues.

AMS Performance has gotten this car into the 9’s. I can forgive most of the 400z’s faults except for one, having to drop the motor to replace the turbos…

Own 2024 Z Performance 6MT - while 'some' of the comments are true, overall the new Z is a pleasure to drive - most car owners in USA don't drive this on a race track every day - they drive and enjoy their Z as a daily driver - 2 big thumbs UP for the new Z - the PROs far outweigh the CONs - that's reality. I really like the suspension - for daily use, it is very comfortable and does not beat you up on bumpy roads. The power is impressive - handling is superb - high quality feel overall - very substantial, tight, and again, the suspension is just right in my opinion of driving many many years. The new Z is 150% FUN, Inc. Bottom line: at a price point of mid 50's, there is NO COMPETITION to the new Z - the dupedra is not a competitor - if you want to create a list of all the inadequacies of the dupedra, I will guarantee you it will be much longer compared to the Z. From: a happy new Z owner Rock on Nissan!

This is a funny commentary. If this is all that is bad with the Z, then I'll take two.

There is also a big problem where if you tune or try almost any engine mod the engine blows.

I just bought my 2023 Z two weeks ago. It is so sick. Mind you, this is the first sports car I've ever owned, and also have driven. I have 0 experience or comparisons to other cars but it is incredible. I drive the automatic which feels great. The engine noises sound great, and although I guess it's amplified/artificial through the speakers it sounds good. I imagine if you wanted something really loud and obnoxious you would modify it anyway. The suspension does feel soft (I guess?) But the ride quality is absolutely amazing. I use it as a daily driver and I wouldnt want to have a harsh ride everywhere I go for me and my passengers. The power and speed is insane, again no experience with anything else at this level but it is so much fun to drive. The numbers provided seem to be 0-60 in 4-4.3 seconds for the automatic which is objectively quick. From my point of view the Z is an excellent car for the average person. I cant speak on behalf of diehard enthusiasts however. I imagine most of the issues people have (exhaust too quiet, suspension too soft, tires, etc) the enthusiasts would modify themselves anyway As for the other nitpicky reasons it's (trash) I think they are negligible. Side mirrors? Trunk space? Hood? Roof? Etc are non factors. The car looks and feels amazing. Hopefully this helps your decision. Not to mention you'll be the only one within hundreds of miles driving it. This is a rare car currently and it's fun to own and be seen with one of only a few in the country.

Sounds great, I want one!

I agree about the automatic side mirrors haha even my 2004 $5000 Nissan Fuga has that. Plus the reversing camera is better than the Z too. LOL. Other than that I love my Z Proto Manual.
