The excellent Nissan 370Z has had its exterior restyled for the 2018 model year and there are a raft of mechanical improvements too. It’s still a great looking sports car with excellent handling.

Indeed, the enhancements have helped boost the coupe’s classic design and style improvements include black rear bumper and door handles.

There are also dark tinted headlights and rear combination lights that buyers could only get on the Nismo model previously.

The style tweaks include distinctive 19-inch alloy wheels and the option of a new body colour, ‘Red Metallic’.

Nissan 370Z has a high-performance clutch

The new Nissan 370Z has a high-performance clutch for the manual models to deliver greater levels of gear change precision as well as comfort.

Other features include a 7-inch touchscreen for the infotainment system and it also incorporates satnav, a rearview camera and a DVD player; all these are fitted as standard equipment on the GT trim.

For fans of the 370Z, the new model retains the features that have made it a popular performance car choice with enthusiasts including the 3.7 litre V6 engine.

The new Nissan 370Z is on sale now with prices starting at £29,185 OTR.
