Why buy a nissan z?

Because you can.

>>28445134 (OP)
you're a faggot, but self aware enough to know a miata would allow everyone to immediately confirm your faggotry

>>28445134 (OP)
two turbos, manual, bones

It's the newest old car available

>>28445134 (OP)
I don't see why anyone should.
But people are dropping $50,000 on new Lexus IS350. A car that is running a 20yr old chassis and drivetrain.
So buyers can be retarded.

In the case of the 400Z of whatever it's called
It's very very slow.
Laggy engine settings
Lazy transmission.
Handling is worse than the 370z
ABS has the same issues as the 350/370z
In my opinion it doesn't look too bad though.
But that is subjective

>>28445146
the rear looks really nice

>>28445149
your rear looks really nice

>>28445146
Many dealerships have started to list them for under MSRP out of desperation so there is that.

>>28445134 (OP)
The Miata is too small.
The GR86 is too weak.
The GTI & Golf R are autotragic.
The Supra is too expensive for what it is.
The WRX hasn't been improved in over 15 years.
The Camaro is GM shit.
The Corvette is GM shit and too expensive.
Modern BMWs are ugly as fuck.
Modern Mercedes have fischer-price ADHD interiors.
Audi is just prettier VW trash.
Porche is too pricey for what it is.

>v6 muscle car :O (japan)

>>28446372
HP is HP. V6 muscle cars only made like 330hp with almost zero tuning potential. You plug a laptop into a 6 cylinder Japanese car and you get 500. Some people actually want Ford to ol yeller the Coyote and put the 3.5 in it. No one would complain if they put the 470hp CT4V engine in a new Camaro.

This is unironically tragic

>>28446023
So why get this over a Mustang with a Gen 3 coyote and a manual?

I want one but they are too expensive particularly for the performance trim w/ LSD

>>28446601
Mustang is ugly as fuck and the interior sucks and they sound awful. Z doesn't sound good but at least it's not very loud. Z Performance is exactly $800 less than a GT PP, which is just enough scratch leftover to throw a tune on it.

>>28446442
>You plug a laptop into a 6 cylinder Japanese car and you get 500.
Not him and far from the ricer scene and inadequate US poopra prices, but isn't that because muscle cars were n/a and ricers in question were not?

It’s been 3 whole years, and I still haven’t seen one of these fuckers on the road, I live in a populated suburban area too, ???

Because it's the best new 6 cylinder coupe under $60k, in fact, you can probably find these at low $50k.
>>28445146
>Lazy transmission.
Kek you shouldn't buy an auto in the first place retard

>>28448743
i walked by one in a small city in mass
i thought it looked cool, but 42k for 400hp is hilarious
u could ls swap and piece of shit vic for 7 racks

>>28448751
Saw what looked like an OK deal at CarMex a while back

Also heard you can get close to these prices off the showroom floor since they're not selling

>>28448775
Oh yeah, look out for the Performance trim because that has an LSD, msrp on those are like $55k, but yeah dealers are selling them brand new off the lot for $45k.

>>28448743
I've seen 3 in my lifetime here in CA. All within the past year, none within the first two years.

>>28446586
>it isn't faster than a purpose-built corner eater
woah such a revelation, herr bench racer

>>28445134 (OP)
>Manual
>Retro sexy look
>400hp
>comfortable
>comes in yellow

My only requirements for a new car were :

1. Manual
2. RWD
3. Yellow

I really like how this car drives. The interior has a lot of little rattles though which is disappointing. Interior storage space fucking sucks but easily solved by buying aftermarket storage solutions to place behind the seats and in the trunk.

>>28446023
>all cars suck

You can get one for $37k new for base model grey if you're willing to go to whichever dealership is having the hardest time moving them.
I've been eyeballing them for sure.

>>28448991
>all NEW cars suck

Fixed it for ya.

By the way, I said it before and I'll say it again, that if Nissan had half a brain they'd offer this with minimal options, a 5 speed and a 2 liter turbo four.

You won't sell a car priced out of range for most people.

>>28449059
>if Nissan had half a brain
>also i'm really poor
who are you to give advice, poorfaggot, most poor people are retarded, statistically speaking
no ones gonna buy a fuckin 4 cylinder Z, if they do want that, theyll just get the BRZ or some shit
new cars SHOULD be expensive and fast, and poorfaggots SHOULD NOT be able to buy them. they should be looking at used cars instead.

>>28449059
>5 speed
>turbo four
lmaooooooooooooo no
you're almost incomprehensibly wrong; in fact the popular consensus is that if the base car came with an LSD then it'd be a top tier new option

>>28448837
>aftermarket storage solutions to place behind the seats and in the trunk.
I've been eyeing it for a while to replace my daily, elaborate on those solutions if you would.
I'm split between this and the mustang and the mustang has much more space comparatively

>>28449059
Absolutely not. The Z has always strictly been a six.
The car needs an LSD as standard, like the 86.

>>28449065
>Used sales doesn't make Nissan money
>Nissan without money is dead Nissan

You're right. Who am I to care giving advice when this shit company folds in a few years? You can have the scraps of what was a good company that (for now) now makes shit bloated crossovers and 50k cars that don't sell.

Cast your judgement from your ivory tower. Few will listen anymore anyway.

>>28446586
>GranTurismo is slower than rice-a-riffic boiracer cart
Wow, much knowledges

>>28449087
NTA but I have a 370z (exact same trunk as the 400Z) and storage space isn't an issue for 1-2 people, even for road trips. You can fit 2 golf bags/large duffel bags in the trunk like in picrel, and an inordinate amount of groceries as long as you don't drive too hard and burst a milk jug.
The front area, on the other hand, is kinda rough. The center console is big enough for your phone and wallet, the glove box is fine for papers and a couple small tools, there's one cup holder and some door pockets that'll fit a standard water bottle and whatever you had in your pockets before entering the vehicle, and there are some small alcoves behind the seats that'll fit a purse or football.
Besides that, there isn't much storage space to speak of.

>>28449091
>LSD as standard
With the amount of markdown, it may as well be the "Standard" price.
>>28449094
Anon, it's not that hard to imagine that even if a situation is bad, there are ideas out there that can make it even worse. Like your idea which was objectively retarded. Maybe it is hard for a low iq poorfag. be honest when was the last time you used food stamps

No reason to with a manual supra unless you (perhaps rightfully) are fearful of the longterm ownership experience of that, or you just want a biggish rwd car that isn't mustang big. Seems way too niche. They should have tried to lower the weight and just kept it NA and had it compete with the twins. If it was like 3200 lb but had a V6 while being high $30's that would have been interesting. I see Supras here and there but have only ever seen one 400Z in person not on a dealer lot.

>>28449059
>a 5 speed and a 2 liter turbo four
That's your mind on yuropoor

anyone who actually owns one that can comment? A lot of the stuff echoed on the internet probably comes from people who don't even own the car. I have had mine for just under a month and it's been fantastic, a blast to drive and comfortable.

>didn't want a nupra
>didn't want nustang
>couldn't afford a z4 or didn't want a convertible
>didn't want a 4 blackwing

>>28448837
If you're only turned away by rattles, a weekend and a roll of cloth tape will fix everything.

>>28449091
1000 bucks shipped to your door but youre a wrenchlet so you have to pay 10k for a viscous lmao, faggot, nu-male

>>28448837
>The interior has a lot of little rattles though which is disappointing.
this isnt a thing on new cars and you a are a confirmed faggot wrenchlet if you bitch about this kind of shit.

>>28445146

An IS350 is still a better deal than an RC350.

You're one of those people that buys a sports car and drives like an old person, aren't you?

What makes you think I'm reverse image searching every post on this discussion forum? Are you doing that? Is anyone doing that?

this car came out years after the Zupra and is less well equipped for the same money.

>>28449087
get the mustang anon. There’s a huge aftermarket and it’s got a v8

>>28449087
It's a really good value now that it's been marked down, just for the love of god get one with an LSD and fun colors

>>28445134 (OP)
Better equipped and more reliable than a 911

>>28445134 (OP)
any nissan Z past the 280 is ugly and you should feel bad buying one
