2023 Nissan Z Reviews Are In (Compiled List Inside)

[2017370ZBlack]

Why the heck did the hood look like it was shaking so damn much in the TST Road Test video? Doesn't look like that in any of the other drives with that POV.

These are preproduction cars with a lot of handwork assembly. That's the only reason I can think of.

I also like this guy's videos, as he does them entirely from a POV cam (similarly like one of the other previously posted reviews) :

Always loved The Topher's reviews, and still don't know what he looks like, LOL.

Generic white dude, I'm sticking with that. Think Topher Grace or Tom Holland.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Or he just forgot to fully close the hood haha.

I love the headline (which should probably go in one of the vs. Supra threads): "Good taste returns"

A columnist for Classic Motorsports opts for the AT? Time to retire.

Of course for street, automatic with launch control is a no brainer....and Peter Brock is deep in his 70s, come on.

The Nissan Z May Not Be The GR Supra Slayer Everyone Makes It Out To Be (topspeed.com)

 

[trackratZ]

If the Supra comes with a killer Toyota mill, that might top my list. Yes the B58 is great and highly tuneable, but still, having owned several BMWs, too many issues, crank bearings, electronics, etc. I’m not buying.

Were there any reviews of the sport model?

No, it was only used for drag strip style runs and photo ops.

Nissan wouldn't dare let anyone do a complete test of the Sport, it would trip over itself on corners and brake fade on straights. It's made for those what want to butcher it right away for serious performance
