Love that they have kept the tri gauge cluster on top of the dash for all these years.
First person to show the Z on a lift.
I'm sure after market dual exhaust will be flying off shelves .
Great review
Clicked this as fast as possible!
The best car reviews the interwebs has to offer!
Sarah and Throttle House are the best! Be cool if they did a collab some day
Fun fact, a 2-1/2” pipe has the same internal volume and (2) 1-3/4 pipes.
@Tom S the larger the pipe, the cooler the air cause gas temperature is inversely proportional to the volume of the container
I learned to drive when I was 10 on my dads automatic 240Z. Sitting on phone books in a grass field. We still have it although it is a junker now. The body rotted out form Colorado road salt. And the engine got ruined when the timing chain was not properly reinstalled. Lots of Nostalgia though.
I think I just saw my favorite garage-dwelling Sarah in her natural habitat - that car is so you! Thank you for another great car review and Stay Awesome!
I owned a 280Z back in the day and I loved driving it. That car was a hoot to drive.
This is the first Z that I’ve liked the styling since the early to mid 90’s 300ZX.
For bland styling, i think it's too busy. You got different generation of Z cars retrofitted on the 370z chassis. So what is it really trying to be? A Frankenstein Z
Agreed. Glad Nissan got rid of nearly all the old jelly bean styling. This Z looks right again.
Agreed. The 300zx was long and low. 350 looked like a kids car. All round and huge body bumpers. 370 looked much better but the 400 looks the best since the 300. I miss mine.
Totally agreed, owned a Z32TT, loved it. Then when the fat back big booty 350Z came out, I waited for the G35. Things didn't get better with the 370Z looks. This new Z, looks amazing, it's like they took all the best looking aspects of all the Z cars and they made a glorious looking chimera! With it being TT from all trim levels, perfect!
@@beexiong2995 I haven't really followed Z cars, so maybe my perspective is different. But as soon as I saw the Z proto, I was sold on the retro-modern look. I don't care that it has styling elements from previous generations, I just love that it isn't a cookie cutter design like every other car out there these days, and to my eye at least they pulled it off really well.
Great, comprehensive, intelligent...and entertaining review. I've learned a great deal of what to look for thanks to this! Love that you implement a totally solid tech/construction overview along with the driving impressions 🙏
My aunt bought a 280Z when I was young, and I fell in love with that car. I bought a 300Z turbo in the early nineties, and loved it too. I want a new Z so bad!!!
Finally an assessment on the new Z with some heart. Throughly enjoyed the 2003 350 and by you I’d enjoy this just as much. Thanks.
Well when you have a team of folks and then a pretty face to present your findings things work out nicely. 😃👍
100% 2003 Best looking
1.75 + 1.75 != 3.5" exhaust.
Area of 1.75" circle is 2.40528188 in squared (so 4.8 total for the two pipes).
The 2.5" pipe in the middle has an area of 4.9 inches squared.
So actually the dual pipes are the bottleneck here.
By comparison a 3.5" pipe would have an area of 9.6 in squared, meaning a single 3.5" would flow roughly double as much as 2 X 1.75" pipes.
Thank you Sarah for another entertaining and informative car review. I appreciate all the work you put into these.
Great job on this review Sarah. Thanks for all your hardwork!
The rear of this car is sick! I almost get 200sx vibes with the rear end, its a masterpiece
I think Nissan hit this one out of the park. I personally love the styling. The lines are clean and the rear end is an absolutely perfect blend of old and new. And I agree with the "parts bin" sentiments. I'd much rather have a proven in-house built system full of years of tweaking on a first generation than a mish-mash collaboration between different auto manufacturers.
yeah but the supra inline 6 is also a proven platform as well as the ZF8 speed that's in a lot of cars and as reliable as Aisin transmissions Toyota co-owns. For daily driving, the Z is easier to modulate. Supra has crazy torque that's going to be a real problem for inexperienced drivers.
Sarah can SHIFT!! Love it!! Great review! 😎😬
Aloha Miss Sarah. Nice surprise as I wasn't expecting any more car reviews for a few weeks. Thank you for all you do
This was the last one for this channel for a couple weeks.
Hello Sarah from England, Love the videos
The ‘area’ of the two 1 3/4” pipes is actually almost identical to the one 2 1/2” pipe.
I was looking for this reply! Because, math!😂
@@justinpettersen7190 I’m not judging,it’s just useful.
this is true
Yeah, Sarah of the interwebs.
how so?
I wanted one, but the local Stealership at Mak Hiak Nissan wants $130,000 for one.
I'll never be able to get one. At this point, I've completely just given up on new cars. I could just buy a small house, a ride my motorcycle.
$130k.... for a Z? Are you serious? couldn't you get a GTR at that price?
This is my favorite review so far! Watching you giving it the beans was Epic!
just bought the new Z been watching z videos for the past week and came across your channel I absolutely love your review! Bravo 🙌
Great job on the video Sarah! Thanks for making it.
Have to admit, I've liked your assessments of the vehicles you shown. Seem pretty honest and definitely knowledgeable. I subscribed because of ragnorok but stayed because your video are entertaining and technical. Thank you.
I remember when Nissan was such a fun car company with really good looking affordable cars that lasted a long time. Let's hope with the departure of the old guard, they can return to those roots.
Well said. I remember that too!
They need another Carlos to spice up the fun.
They're French I doubt it
You must be old af.
The old guard in design and engineering is why this car is like it is lol
Having driven a Q50 and q60 red sport for the past 5 years I can say that the 3.0TT engine is terrific, such a fun ride. I see they also stole the Infiniti's exhaust tips.
Wow… I’ve been looking at all the photos that have been available on this and I still cannot get over how reminiscent it is of the original 240Z, particularly the fastback. If that front grill was just not as tall, it would be perfect, IMO. That blue is gorgeous. I’d love to see it in British Racing Green (my 240Z color!). Great review… you did really well keeping your bias in check. Oh… and I never paint my cats! Thank you. 👍👍👍
the OG 240/260 Z cars are one of the best looking cars ever made IMO
Thanks for another great car review. Congrats on the over 500k Subs. you rock
Thanks for this 2023 Nissan Z review. My Sunday with Sarah is fun and famil...familia..,familiarity ! - Also Thank You field Sarah. 👍
Ok, this looks like a load of fun. I could lose my license in no time.
Congrats on 500k!! That’s a huge milestone!
Just found this channel, this is a great review ! love the under carriage inspection , keep doing it please
Great review Sarah!!!!
I love the rear end, the roof flows nicely. Love that color too. I know you dont have a lot of time to answer questions, but do you get a chance to drive your grams truck once in a while? It's still my favorite build.
Great review Sarah, you sure can bang out those shifts, I’m very impressed, keep up the awesome videos. The Fiesta Flash. 🎉
Your videos have always been awesome but this one had some amazing editing and camera work. After a hard day's work, it is awesome to see that I have your episode to watch.
3.1 gear ratio would be the first mod I imagine, especially with the heftier curb weight. Otherwise this looks great, and I always come here for the actual low down on new cars here. No one else gives these cars the beans quite like Sarah.
I still smile every second of every mile I drive my (blue/blue 120k) 1990 300zx, and after 13 years of ownership, it never gets old. I'm the 2nd owner, bought it w 68k. I don't need a new Z, but I sure want one, but maintaining my debt free lifestyle overrides my lust for this beauty. Great review.
I agree with you on maintaining debt free considering the costs of living in 2022 you'd definitely be better off beefing up your 300zx
Keep on maintaining that debt free lifestyle brother, having to have the newest/shiniest thing is a sickness too many have and it's a recipe for self-imposed slavery
Thank You Sarah. I really like you honest reviews. 🙂
Been looking forward to this one....sit back and watch a Sarah review.
Hey Sarah, myself I take the supra(manual of Cours) but you make a great argument for the Z. I think when you drive the manual supra you’ll change your mind but what a problem to have🙂 I couldn’t wait for you to get a manual supra now I really can’t have a great one🐧🐧🐧👍
I like watching videos by Sarah :)
Best reviews on Ytube, period. Thanks, always. TFS
Thanks for your review! You always make the best videos. And I can't wait to get a new Z
I dig the Datsun fascia, it's the homage I expected in the Charger and Camaro scene
Nice review, thanks. Personally, I think this is the best looking Z since the original 240.
Your reviews are excellent! The car is also great btw!
I remember first discovered your channel back in the day when you tried to do some headlight restoring video, then I realized you became a RUclips created full time and rented a shop. I saw you put into hard work and really hope the best for you even though your contents are a bit lightweight to my taste and I haven't watch them often and haven't subscribed(sorry, I worked on cars myself and prefer more wrenching heavy content). Today I clicked it and saw your channel grew to 500k+ subs and the review is much more improved and very professionally done. Glad to see things worked out well for you!
I just discovered your channel from the Ford Focus content...and this is the first car review of yours I've watched. Instantly blown away. No-one ever puts a car on a lift to review them!! AMAZING, thank you for going into such detail! Definitely subscribed and checking out a lot more of your content.
I like it even with the weak exhaust note. Bet it rips on the track.❤
Won't be hard to fix, but depends on regulations where you live.
You Nailed it with your Smile driving the Z!!!💯
Sarah's memories of her old z car - Priceless. Ability to relive those memories in the new z car - $53,000.
I'm looking into buying this car (if can find one), and found this review to be the best review by far. It had the right mix of humor, tech (inside, outside, under), and driving. Plus: Sarah drove the exact model want: Performance, 6MT, Blue, Graphite. Keep up the great work!
So much perfection in a single video! Like the new Z quote a bit too!!! ❤️
I love it! It looks like the '72 240 I had 35 years ago grew up. It has the adulty stuff I like but still looks fun.
They nailed it with this car.
The parts bin thing means many of the parts will be available cheaper.there is no need to fix what wasn't broken about there last design.
Great video and glad you liked it.
This is the best looking of the modern Z's. Plus it's got power now.
I wonder who else likes this car as much as I do?
This is a Top Notch Review in anyone's book. Passion and Knowledge! Sweet!
I am with you on this one. That car is on point. I might like it better than I liked my mustang PP1. Tough to say though since I personally haven't gotten a chance to drive one yet. Great review!
Hopefully Steve Millen gets a hold of one and makes aftermarket parts for it.
I was waiting for this review after the tease a week or so ago. I have had a 240, 280 ZX and a big fan of the 300ZX. I am very glad Nissan (Datsun) is rebranding themselves to have an enthusiast presence.
been waiting for a while for you to review this :)
Remember, $53,000 is what they say that it will cost not what it will actually end up costing you.
These outfits are getting better and better
Lol. Yes.
Happy Sunday Sarah!!!
Stay excellent!!!😎
Outstanding presentation off this Nissan z !! 👍🇨🇦
If a 2-seat convertible is ever offered I might be tempted.
1:53 the pipe cross sectional area is exponential (π*r²), so a pair of 1.75in pipes will not flow as much as a 3.5in pipe.
anyway, those pipes do look rather small. wonder if Nissan knows what they're doing or will larger actually help?
They will flow about as much as the 2.5" pipe referred to as a bottleneck
I really enjoyed YOUR review of the Z. You have a charming style that always entertains as well as informs the viewer.
The Sarah-Shifter is awesome ! My favorite part, I watched it over and over. You are awesome quick ! Note to self: Don't race Sarah while driving a manual, too Give it the Beans !
I think this is one of you best videos. You genuinely like this car. It came through on camera. What I appreciate most, I don't get the feeling you are just some talking head.
Always entertaining and extremely informative.
This car is on a VERY short list....of cars I'd give up my Cayman for! And that says a LOT!!!
The Katmann...In fact no one cares what you may or may not ''give up''...And that says a LOT!!!....
Watch the Throttle House review, keep that Cayman.
@@mark006868 keyboard hero!!
@@thekatmann9730 Never doubt something with two first names.
@@thekatmann9730 Nope...Sorry but I'm no hero...and...No one cares what you may or may not think, as well...I'm sorry the fact that no one cares what you do or think offends you....oh who am I kidding? I'm not sorry at all!...Please refrain fro answering any more as I simply don't care....lol....In closing. You must have us all confused with someone who cares....Have a nice day....
Finally it’s been turbo’d and it’s not just available as an Auto, great looking car, nice review, thanks.
Can’t wait for this review!
I miss the abandoned warehouse :(
Its completely gone now
Same....😕
It wasn't abandoned, it was...deserted.
This is one of the only new cars that i would buy right now. Rear wheel drive 6 cylinder twin turbo manual. That is the magic combo.
yeah...except it's made by Nissan....
Decades ago I bought a new Mustang GT, years later, a new Toyota Targa turbo, both had standard transmissions. The Toyota was much more expensive, but everything about it screamed quality, it was much more stable at high speeds, the clutch was feather light, great breaking (very smooth), and had beautiful lines.
After a couple years, the sophistication wore, off, I missed my Mustang. The Mustang didn’t handle well, was a gas hog, ate oil, and couldn’t stop for crap (rear drums). BUT IT WAS MORE FUN. You could drop that Borg-Warner into any gear and light it up, heck you drop it into 1st at 5mph and drag the rear tires to a halt it ya wanted too, and that V8 sound.
Sarah, how about an old vs new FUN comparison, could be same models, but not necessarily, just pick an old timer with lots of beans. Let’s see what FUN (if any) we may have lost with all the sophisticated stuff in cars today.
Sara, excellent review of the new Z, your fun to watch 👍🏼
Great video and the 350z is a great car.. especially with some upgraded bushings and suspension dialing in. Z's have a feel that some little bimmer Toyota won't have..
Yeah that feel is called being slower and cheaper quality. Also the 350z was probably the worst z car they ever made....
Sarah great review.
Wish you would do a calendar. Your favorite car of each month.
this is gold. i dont know any other review that goes through the underside of the car
Damn I didn't know how many cool features this car had!
Nice review. $53,000? I didn't expect that! I like the styling of the 370Z a whole lot, don't know if I can get used to this. Can't get used to the new Corvette C8 either. Strangely enough I now like the 10th gen Honda Civic, esp the type R. I love the original 240Z and even the 1600 and 2000. I had a 1978 5 speed 510 hatchback.
Dealers are already trying to get up to $100,000 for allocations lol
Hey girl hey
🏁
I enjoy your videos so much .Thanks
I'm loving the best motoring/hot version sound effects and pointer haha
You say zee I say zed.
Hagerty did a great job, as per usual, showing that the new Z is second-rate compared to the Supra
Just like it was 30 years ago.
It's a good sports car in a day of legendary sports cars.
I like your enthusiasm when driving 😊
👍😀🏴
Anything is better than a BMW.
Nice review. I feel like you have your own unique style that stands out as a bit different from all the other channels out there.
We always like the view and the humor. Mostly the humor😂
I agree with the scores love to drive it great video 📹 📹 Sarah
Great review 👍👍
Still miss my blue 350Z......but this looks like a proper successor in every way. Love the design, interior, and the big power bump!
This is the first really good looking car Nissan has come out with for a number of years.
IMO
Thanks for the video, I have a 2018 370Z heritage that has a factory exedy clutch. The first year it was standard, Nissan continued to upgrade the 370 over the years. Great cars.
Wow again Sarah I love this car and you are so amazing.
