Improving technology lends a broad operating range to the new Nissan 370Z in every aspect, making it a usable everyday commuter as well as a fun track day car. Its civilized character and affordable price will likely attract one-car singles for all-around motoring activities. Buyers will find they have purchased one of the best performance bargains on the market. The NISMO, however, lacks the base car's refinement, making it best for hardcore enthusiasts.

After the Nissan 370Z was thoroughly redesigned for 2009, the roadster receives the same treatment for 2010. In addition, a modified NISMO 370Z coupe version joins the lineup featuring unique front and rear spoilers, stiffer suspension, and a more powerful engine.
