Perfect all round
I've had this car for a couple of years now. I bought it near new with only about 20000ks on the clock. I haven't had any problems so far and find it very reasonable to maintain price wise for such an amazing car. The drive is awesome, super quick, sticks to the road and has a fantastic sound system. Very sporty and definitely recommend and you want to lift your status
Purchased in February 2021 at Westpoint for $42,500.00.

Back in another Z and couldn't be happier
Well, I just couldn't keep away from the Z. I bought another one a year after selling the old one. This one is the 2013 version. Slightly different dash, twin oil coolers and not a lot else. The sat nav is upgradeable on this model. Not so the 2010. I bought a Magma Red car this time. I love the colour. It's very classy.
These cars are not speed machines, but they are quick enough for most people.
I was fortunate enough to take a z with an Armytrix catback on it for a drive and holy snapping duck turds, did this thing move! Or, maybe it just ...Read more
sounded like it moved. It sure sounded nice, and I am tempted to get one. This is not really a sport's car. I would call it a classy GT, a Grand Tourer, with sporting pretensions. That's not being harsh on the car, but I think that is where it fits in the best. Do I love it? I sure do! This one's a keeper!
Purchased in February 2021 at private seller for $27,000.00.

Love My Z
This was my first Z. I wanted a car that had plenty of torque and was fun to drive. The Z was this in spades. It hugs corners at speed and the acceleration is amazing. I always fell like I am hopping into the cockpit of a fighter jet (especially at night as the orange accents on all dials etc all light up) The seat is extremely comfortable. This design and engine has been established for years now and all of the bugs/glitches have well and truly been solved meaning I could relax and enjoy my purchase. The Z is fine on the petrol, similar to my ...Read more
Mitzi Outlander I was running previously. Obviously if you drive it hard ( and it is exceedingly difficult not to occasionally let it out of its cage, as it is exhilarating) petrol consumption goes up a little. Overall a truly wonderful car which brings me much enjoyment.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Finally found a car I really, really enjoy driving
When I sold my beloved twin turbo RX7 FD, I pined and pined for so long, my hands were tired from pining, and anyway, I was running out of trees to pine. Years went by. I drove mundane car after mundane car. And then, one day, we went to the car dealership and sat in a brand new 370z. Gorgeous, and that new car smell hits you like a lotto windfall. My wife, who sat in the car with me, agreed that it was very nice. But we couldn't afford the 65 grand that they were selling for, so I settled on driving around in...in fact, I can't even remember w...Read more
hat I used to drive around it, because it was so forgettable. I think it must have been an old XH Falcon van that I used as a parts chaser while I worked on my 1954 F100 pickup truck (another regrettable sale). And when I sold my beautiful old truck, I started looking around for something nice to drive once more. I knew exactly what I was looking for. A 370z. I bypassed the 350z as I think it is starting to show its age a bit, and next to the 370z, well, let's be honest, it definitely looks dated. Plus, it's slower. And I was never a fan of that plain looking rear end and those long angled rear tail lights. But, hey, this is a review about the 370z. I have never owned a z car before, but I have very vivid memories of taking a 240z for a test drive way back in the early 1980's. This red with a black roofed 240z had just been traded in and was up the back of Giddings' car dealership in Moss Vale. I rocked up. Asked how much. The salesman said "about three grand." In 1980, that was a fair bit of cash. But not a massive lot. I asked if I could take it for a drive and he said "sure, no worries." He added. "Don't flog it, because we don't know much about it." Well, I don't think I flogged it, but I gave it a spirited drive and...well, let me just say I have never forgotten the experience. It was the most fun I have ever had in a car. (Except for that time me and my girlfriend at the time went parking in a quiet spot up Macquarie Pass some years later, but I digress...) This car had a 280c engine; twin webbers and went like a rocket! Years later, when I started spiritedly driving my RX7, I thought back to those times I drove that little Z. (I never bought it, by the way- never had the money) and I don't think my rotary powered beast would have caught that Datsun, to be honest. It was just so fast. So, let's fast forward to 2017. I have just sold my truck and am looking for a z car. I still love the old classic 240z's, but the amount of money people are asking for them is just stupidly ridiculous. I have seen them for 40 grand. Uh, forget it. So, I went looking for a modern version.1 comment

pretty good
The car is way to small for a white adult to be honest. the ammount of times i hit my head on the roof and banged my knees was incredible.
Apart from that drives well
and would be worth least half the new price.
So i advise to buy near new
Fuel economy is good.'
Top speed good bit of lag but its not modified yet so

OK
I've already written a review early last year but now that I have driving it for 14 months as one of the first few to purchase I thought this re-review would be highly relevant. A little disappointed but still generally good solid attractive car to own. I love the roaring of sport car engines but this car doesn't produce that but is indeed very noisy as tyres fail to filter out the noise from the road. Even the BOSS surround sound can't filter out the unpleasant sometimes unbearable noise especially when driving on rough freeways. I've had too ...Read more
minor crashes like knocking into a wooden pole at a parking lot and even with a minor low speed knock, the plastic bumper snaps off and literally flies out resulting in a rather expensive repair. Manual gear is really clunky and sometimes disengaging one gear to the next requires a bit of uncomforting force. GPS system is a little hard to follow for the first few month until you get used to it and after missing numerous corners and exits. The software has not been updated so driving through the newly constructed freeway, GPS will show you are in the noman's land. Visibility is very poor especially when reversing and although not listed as an option you can tell your Nissan dealer to install one and my car is a proof that it is done despite what you may hear. Having driven for more than a year I am a little disappointed with few things. To be fair it still has many positives. The car is well equipped with a number of gadgets including iPOD connectivity, GPS, 6 stacker CDs etc etc. BOSS was rather a disappointment and the system doesn't even have an equaliser or sound effects and you can't find tune your sound output to the type of music that you hear. But, design is still appealing and something tells me that it would still look vintage good in 10-20 years. Resale value is reasonable and service centre staff is incredibly nice, kind and thorough. Maintenance in terms of patrol is expensive but regular servicing price is surprisingly cheap and boys at the service centre will SMS you to remind service dates and things. Still love the car - that for certain - but 14 months down the track, something tells me I would not be shopping for a 390Z... Despite owning it for 14 months, it still is COOL to drive with people still giving admiring glare as you drive past. Powerful engine. Good suspension. Surprisingly cheap maintenance cost at the Nissan service centre It's very noisy but it's not roaring sport car noise, it's nasty road noise. Plastic bumpers can snap and fly off even with minor knock. Consumes way too much patrol.1 comment
Have to agree . The engine and exhaust noise when auto box changes down is far too loud but at cruising speed is quiet . The tyre noise when at 100 klms/hr on a perfect road is excessive . Could be just the brand of tyre .

Well, four months down the track and the honeymoon is over, My initial infatuation with the car has faded like the morning after make-up that has faded on that date you thought was so hot the night be... Read more
fore. Well, I am no great driver, but I can tell you this, I have tried to really extract some performance out of this car, but I haven't been able to. It's punchy, but not fast. There is nothing breathtaking about this car's performance. Quite the opposite. I found it to be a bit of a slug. I could never make a quick start from the lights and found it very frustrating when other cars could launch so easily. It's style still appeals, and the interior is gorgeous. The comfort level is high. But that's about as goodas it gets. The engine does not sound like a willing revver. It sound unhappy, wheezy, and the lame exhaust note is completely uninspiring. I fitted a Meisterschaft Gt Haus system to it, but the sound was raucous, extreme and the level of noise did not equal the velocity with which I was speeding down the road. In other words, it was all noise and no action, so i took it back off. So, after just a few months, I am now selling the car. And I sell it willingly, without regrets. i just haven't bonded with it. Give me my old FD Rx7 twin turbo any day. In standard form it would eat this Nissan for breakfast.
