Overview

The 2018 Nissan 370Z Coupemakes for an excellent contender in the compact coupe class. With 4 trims on offer, the Nissan 370Z coupe has a base MSRP of $30,090 with prices going all the way up to an MSRP of $39,590 and competes directly with the Chevrolet Camaro and indirectly the Ford Mustang and the Dodge Challenger from the midsize coupe segment.

Only a 3.7L V6 engine is offered, however, there#39;s a choice between a 6-speed manual transmission and a 7-speed automatic transmission. Together, they produce 332 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 5.3 seconds, the 370Z coupe maintains a combined fuel economy of 22 MPG. Nissan offers the 370Z in 8 stunning colors, with the Gun Metallic being our particular favorite.
