Could be! :) Since I’m more than happy with my current Z and have no plans for another one, for me it’s more just a matter of interest with the Z production. I just hope Nissan keeps cranking SOME Z’s out and maintains a parts supply for the foreseeable future. If they want to basically keep it...
Maybe the remainder are in Texas. ;) Mustangs are all over the place in Houston, although nowhere near the overwhelming number of pickups and SUV’s. I can usually hear the Mustangs around here, before I can see them. They’ll have loud, course-sounding exhausts that don’t sound at all good to my...
I’ve been exploring different tire and wheel options, primarily using Google A.I.,https://www.fitmentindustries.com/, https://martiniworks.com/, and discounttire.com for my Sport Z. With all the different variables (sizes, wheel styles, brands, offsets, clearances, heights, etc.) it can get...
Just as points of comparison, and not implying anything about Corvettes and Mustangs being like Z’s or vice versa.
25,835 Corvettes were produced in the 2025 model year.
Ford sold 45,333 Mustangs in 2025 in the U.S.
As I read this article, it’s an average of 3 Z’s, of ANY type, per dealer, for the 2027 model year, with roughly 10% of that being the manual NISMO.
1055 U.S. dealerships x 3 = 3165 Z’s
10% of the above = approximately 316 manual NISMO’s.
Absolutely. I looked at some new Toyotas in the Houston area during Covid. Just regular sedans, nothing special. Every imaginable crazy dealer add on was slapped on them. The worst was some multi-thousand dollar security system which the dealer gave no option on. It was already, supposedly...
Yes! It sounds like you got a great deal for Herbie. Plus, Herbie got a great playmate, with your Z. He can help keep it under control. Or maybe it's vice versa. :wink:
Holy crapola! Has anyone else confirmed this weight? I thought they were heavy but I didn’t think they’d be 29 lbs. I thought maybe 24-25 lbs.
No wonder I can’t easily find the weight on any Nissan sites I’ve checked. If I was Nissan, I wouldn’t be making it easy to learn the Sport wheel...
Yes, this describes me. My first love was the 240Z, way back in High School. By the time I graduated college it was the 280Z and not quite at a price I could comfortably afford.
As the decades and Z models progressed, I lost interest. It seemed to me the Z had lost its way, particularly in the...
