Nismo Z prototype spied testing in the U.S.

Until they reveal the price for it.....if 50k pissed you off, just wait



That's not the way, Nismo RZ34 is going for a "modern Fairlady Z 432" vibe.

Unless this is an entirely misleading mule, it sure looks something like that rendering. I'm here for it, I'm sure it will look fine (as opposed to virtually every version of a hypothetical bisected-grille I have seen).

New member but figured this might be of interest….was surprised how quiet they were but i have nothing to compare.

the horizontal blade/beak does look accurate as it fits sort of an evolution of both the NISMO 370 S-tune nose finisher just moved into the actual grill and the even the gunmetal area of the gen 2 370 NISMO facelift itself just moved up. so there is design synergy between all 3

you can see the design progression from the earlier mule

Here is the 2020+ GTR NISMO wheel vs what we are seeing on this NISMO Z protoype

wow thanks for posting. First time the NISMO mules have been seen in a few weeks. I guess by the camo it looks like the same two cars we saw in California. I guess they are now at the Nissan AZ testing facility

I can see some dark red trim on the seat. so the 370z/Juke RS recaros sportsters are probably making a return

this F1 style fog light reminds of what we see on the refreshed 2024 GTR NISMO.

Great shots. So excited!

Hopefully there are a few more upgrades vs the previous 370z/Nismo changes since this will probably cost another ~$8k on top the performance spec exceeding '23 Supra MT prices.

part of the reason is these mules to my eyes at least seem have the regular performance exhaust which in a traffic situation like that wouldnt be incredibly loud. With that said the OEM NISMO exhausts in general have always been rather tame anyway.

my educated guess is MSRP will be 64,595. dont think it will exceed 69,595. As I think this will follow the standard NISMO treatment we are used to. maybe 35-45hp wheels brakes suspension bodykit seats. the new Z itself exists a bit on a budget from nissan. it doesnt make sense to suddenly go all out and get radical with the NISMO. besides anything more than what I mentioned would break that 70K mark. even though im a hardcore NISMO fanboy I will admit Z is a bit out of its depth at that price point and is a hard sale

here is one aspect not mentioned yet but NISMO has its own trademark red tach version of the digital dash for the NISMO Aura in Japan. I think its a guarantee the Z will get its own NISMOfied version of the digital dash.

They will be available in 5 years, only sell 11 cars, and dealers will have them at 160k.

Does that include the time for stop sales?
