Nissan Z350 2008
Fast, nimble, looks good and reasonably priced - Z350 is everyman’s dream car. If you have $35,000 or more to spend on a fun car, that is.
V6 engine delivers 306 hp, 6-speed manual gearbox is tad stiff in bumper-to-bumper action, but feels great accelerating up on the open highway.
There’s nothing pure and clean about Z350 exterior - it looks as if a Cadillac designers mingled their fingers in it.
Odd, but this car has more blind spots than windows (unless roof is off, of course).
Price-wise, with base price of $35,000, it’s at the top of the list, too.
Main changes are engine related - it has 20bhp more than before, totalling a stunning 550bhp and 632Nm torque. Despite its tremendous power, fuel economy is improved to 19,93mpg. New GT-R also comes with more gadgets - for example, rear drive camera is a standard equipment.
2011 version of Nissan's legend, GT-R is not just a repacked déjà vu. Nissan has managed to pump in extra 40bhp, totaling 530bhp. Aerodynamics has been improved from 0,29 to 0,27. 2011 Nissan GT-R has daily LED lights, too.
