Nissan Z 2023
Carsguide Editor Malcolm Flynn had this to say at the time: It’s fair to say the new Z is more about fundamentals than outright finesse, but it has the former in spades, and the relatively low price and genuine pedigree makes me very glad Nissan built one while they still could. We’re very lucky.Â

Nissan Z 2023 Interior
Inside the Z will be very familiar to 350Z owners, but it’s mostly new at surface level, and the material quality and most of the convenience features - including the new 8.0-inch multimedia screen - are a big jump over the 370Z.
The steering wheel finally has telescopic adjustment, but it’s also a good, round wheel, with really nice grippy leather, and the parts you hold were actually modelled on the R32 GT-R.

There’s also an eight-speaker Bose audio system, leather and Alcantara trim, power adjustment and seat heaters, but no seat cooling, and that’s really the only thing that’s missing.
