About the 2010 Nissan 370Z

Z34 generation (2009-2020), second model year; the coupe carries over and the Roadster joins the range.

Nissan positions the 370Z as a pure two-seat sports car built around driver involvement. The themes across Nissan’s materials are a strong naturally aspirated V6, rear-wheel drive, a tight cockpit, and quick responses rather than luxury or practicality. What separates it from many rivals is how focused it is on the classic sports-car formula: short wheelbase, manual-transmission emphasis, and a cabin designed to make the driver feel closely connected to the car.

The 2010 370Z lineup ranges from the straightforward 332-hp base model to the more comfort-focused Touring and the track-oriented NISMO. Touring adds leather-trimmed heated seats, Bose audio, and Bluetooth, while the manual-only NISMO uses a 350-hp V6, firmer suspension, larger brakes, and unique aerodynamic bodywork. The new Roadster brings open-top driving to the Z34 generation for the first time.
