Since 1969 the Z-Car brand has been entertaining the world. It started with the 240Z which made big waves all over the world. Over the decades the Z-Car evolved into 300ZX until sports cars died out in the late 1990's. But Nissan revived the Z-Brand in 2002 with the 350Z and now we have the 370Z. So does this 2014 Nissan 370Z which has been around for a few years still elicit a response or has the car become stale?Research the 2014 Nissan 370Xhttp://www.autobytel.com/nissan/370z/2014/One of the great things style-wise about the 370Z is that Nissan took a page from the 240Z out back but up front the car is much more modern. For 2014 there are now LED daytime running lights integrated into the front bumper. This roadster model tested here looks great with the top down, the red paint, and the big wheels.Gone are the days of the glorious carbureted inline 6-cylinder engines; instead we now have a V-6 with tons of technology. This engine is a 3.7 liter that makes 332 horsepower and 270 lb-ft. of torque. The transmission choices are a 7-speed automatic or a 6-speed manual with REV Matching downshift. Fuel economy for the convertible is 18 MPG in the city and 25 MPG on the highway. But by far the best point is the sound the dual exhaust makes.The cabin is very driver focused as you would expect from a sports car: the seats are bolstered, the gauge cluster is great, and the steering wheel has paddle shifters. The 2014 Nissan 370Z is a sports car without question. It has everything you would expect: front engine, 2-doors, and RWD. The brakes are excellent and the feel is immediate. The steering is tight and direct. Base price starts at just under $30k.See More Car Videoshttp://www.autobytel.com/car-videos/Join Our Facebook Pagehttp://www.facebook.com/autobytel
