On the outside you will discover optional 19in wheels, LED lighting and classic shape. On the inside you will find a 9in infotainment system, digital gauge cluster and leather seats with Alcantara.

“We still have the same key fob that Noah used on the Ark” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 god I love this guy
The problem is you can’t buy them anywhere in Florida and if you find one then they’re $60K+ absolutely worst way to handle this vehicle launch by these dealers
Yeah these stealerships are BS. On CarGurus 500mile radius there's 2 for $70k with over 2k miles. No thanks
Nissan dealership is the worst in the world i own a 370Z
Exactly right 👍. dealerships around my area charge 60k; some are even 70k. It's ridiculous 😞🫣
Awesome car
It took me 20 dealers and going out of state to get mine at MSRP
Dealership markups are killing this car for Nissan.. if Dealership had them at msrp i am sure they will be selling better.
Yep i have yet to see one on the road driving
It's simple supply and demand. Dealer markups only exist if the supply isn't keeping up with the demand.
@@brianb4501 seen like they still exit even nobody buying them lol. heard the only sold 300 or 400
of them last year?
@@brianb4501 Um no. Supply and demand heavily guide market behavior, but do not outright determine it. There are other factors here and one of them is called mismanagement.
@@liudxdx huh? What is your native language?
one of the best car reviewers on UA-cam who actually knows what he's talking about. keep up the good work!!
"We still have the same key fob that Noah used on the ark" LOL bro you nailed the review and the commentary as usual!
Thanks for letting me share the laughs and the cars with you!
Great video as always. Unfortunately, Nissan dragged their heels way too long to get this car to the market and it already lost its mojo. They also missed the opportunity to put a removable Targa top so you can have the best of both worlds: hard top and Open top driving. For the asking price ($60k+)....the juice ain't worth the squeeze.
That would have been great!
Yep. It's like Nissan never heard of a thing called a calendar.
Mac Daddy I wish there were a'' however '' but your on point indeed the juice ain't worth the squeeze !!
Great points, this design would look great with a targa top!
"...before I get myself in trouble..." always fun watching you enjoy some high HP on the twisty bits.
I am so glad that I can share my car passion with you!
Lol, a few months ago, I bought the same, white-colored 2023 Nissan Z HotWheels from the store!
AMAZING! As a Z guy, I can't wait for the NISMO! But keep in mind, no car dot's all the I's in it's first year! Guys like yourself, giving them your feedback will make the furture updates better! Awesome review as always!!!! ✌🏾❤✊🏾
My 1990 Z non turbo was my first sports car. I thought it felt like a race car for the street when I got it in 2003, then I test drove a brand new Nismo 350 Z. I didn't know a suspension could feel SO stiff, so flat. it made my car suddenly feel soft so I guess that continues today. The new Nismo will be a beast!
I spent a grand total of $150 on a hotchkis front swaybar for my 370z. Try that for your older/nicer looking Z. Just do the front only for now, and maybe upgrade the endlinks. See how you like it. Still the best bang for the buck "mod DUDE BRO!" I have done to my 370z... then tires/alignment.... Coilovers are a mixed bag - some people love them - some people hate them - the issue is that they bring in 150 trillion new variables that only less than a dozen people on planet earth truly understand how to set them up properly.... Too many "STANCE IT OUT DUDE BRO!! BRO!!!!!!!!" people have destroyed the car scene. Try the sway bar!
Nismo is automatic junk.
As always appreciate the honest informative review with a dose of personality 👍🏽
I love the legendary Z from Nissan this is worthy of buying. Looks great, drives like butter, and is pure fun all around. Thanks for the review and on throttle action and Steven your hard work is appreciated!
What a way to start the week! Thank you for this episode 🔥
Should have come with red seat belts for that extra 5hp!
Really enjoying your content joe! Thank ya
great review Joe as always, I had a 75 280Z first year with fuel injection in silver, wire wheels, it was beautiful, not a speed demon , but just a pleasure to take trough the mountain switchbacks, THAT is the essence of this car
Thanks! Can't wait till you hit 1 million subs bro, you deserve it, my favorite car reviewer on you tube.
We can't do it without your fantastic support!
Great review Joe. love mine even though im only a week and 150 miles in! the two tone paint is based on the color itself. besides Diamond Black rosewood metallic and gun metallic also dont have the two tone roof black roof no matter the trim sport or performance. only small Raiti zonks so far are yea the rear camera is like looking through a dim aquarium. the heated seat switches are a bit cheap with the weird 370 carry over placement. The 3 twinkie holder thats doubles as a phone holder should have been wireless charge compatible like on other Nissans. Roll is there for sure but like Tamura San said its a dance partner. More on the GT side no doubt but the nostalgic design I think will age very well as it feels like the culmination of the all the Zs before it.
Joe always coming thru with the videos bro!!
Thanks for the review Joe!
Man we had a decent years recently. We got 400 Z, New type R, GR Corolla, and Integra Type S. Too bad mark ups are too high and most importantly I can't drive manual 😂
What’s a 400Z? I might want one.
I think he doesn't know it's called the "Nissan Z". Even the video calls it out but some people lack intelligence 😂
MSRP price is one thing, but last Z I personally saw on a show room floor in FL had an additional 50k market adjustment added to it. Laughable!
i’m a nissan salesman and I just spent all day today trying to sell a guy on this exact Z. he didn’t buy because he didn’t like the interior but I absolutely fell in love with this car
53k MSRP is absolutely insane.
Go buy a Scat pack for 65k
@@overv434 Where?
When in doubt, raitis ride got you covered. Keep up the good work.
Thanks my friend!
It’s all about the power here. I sat in this car at the NYC auto show didn’t really care for the interior. if I could get the base at $40k then maybe
I do like the styling of this Z in the white. I would like Raiti's impressions of a similar one equipped with the manual transmission. Also, any observations on the ride quality of this Z with the performace trim versus a present generation Mazda Miata MX-5 RF would be helpful. Incidentally, I own a 1975 Datsun 280Z, so I am especially glad to see that this rejuvenated one retains the lovely style and lines.
Manual is slower to 60 less gears and no launch control.
Dude you’re an awesome driver. I appreciate how informative you are and I believe I will be buying one in gun metal in 2024 !
Congrats on a mil subs Joe!
Definitely going to look into picking one up. I love it, hated the 280ZX up to the 370Z, I have a 240Z and this definitely gives me old school vibes just with modern tech
400 HP in that little car, man I know this thing is a blast to drive!
I started out being a Z lover in 1978. My friend Chuck had a new maroon 1978 280Z. The original (bad boy) lol in 1980 I wanted to buy a new Z so of course I bought a brand new 1979 280 ZX. It was silver with black hood vents and a black rear window louver; I loved that car! Back in those days not every car company in the world had super nice cars to choose from, especially in the USA, which only offered the Corvette. I would turn heads everywhere I drove it in the small town of Bountiful Utah. I am still a huge Z fan and would love to buy this car if I could afford it, that's a big if! Oh yeah, I just subscribed to your channel so please leave me a comment if you so desire.
Hey Raiti's Rides How Are You You Make Great Video Can You Make A Review On The 2024 Chevrolet Trax LS
Getting close to a milestone! Yall are great.
I personally like the little vents at the side that they haven't put on I'm loving the door handle
I am so glad that you are liking this new Z
This is my birthday car! Today happens to be mine.
Awesome review Joe.
Sat in one last month, worst seat (short) bottom cushion I have ever been in. Was so looking forward to owning one. My dad had 3 Z's growing up.
I still haven't seen one of these on the street.
Nice review keep up the good work Joe
You got it Marcus!
Joe you did a boot tease on us all 😂. I love it ❤️❤️ I'm loving the seats colours. 😋😋 Did you say apple pies joe lol. Omg the cup holders family jewels. I wished the center bit on the steering wheel was red
Hey Joe, I think they're saving all the goodies for the NISMO. I definitely will be saving for it. I can see what you mean about it being soft and slow shifting. Hopefully the NISMO can deliver with more power/tuning, aggressive suspension, and styling.
But at what cost 🥹
@@porfiriato84 well that's where it gets ugly. Stealerships are already adding $20k on top of the $50k price tag. Honestly those NISMOs will probably be closer to $90k..
@@eddiegarcia1560 there’s one in south Texas where I live for sale. MSRP is 53k with a 35k markup totaling to almost 80k. That’s Bupkis.
@@Blackwing668 disgusting
@@eddiegarcia1560 yeah tell me about it. I could get a Blackwing but it’s also affected by markup as well. Well some of em.
I like these z thanks Joe have a great week and a great Sunday evening ❤
You are so very welcome Todd.
Great work
I def Love How they kept it simple but def Hit all the Rt spots Im a Big fan of the Car staying wider in the Back Unlike the 350 And 370!!
This is the only Nissan I'd ever consider buying. Seiran blue, please and thank you.
Raiti my man. You need a nice vacation lol ☺️
Amazing job and this is my car to get Joe.
I may trade in my ES350 for this car. Love the Z tradition!
Beautiful car Joe 🔥🔥
Hey Raiti. What do you like driving better, the new Z or the Mustang Mach 1?
Raiti is the best, he's not scared to crush the speed limit 😂😂
I couldn’t take my eyes off that sweet LC Convertible in the back Joe, I know you gonna bring us that one soon !!! 🤞🏼
Good eyes!
yepp! when i saw that too in the background,i forgot about the z trying to get more of a glimpse myself
Love to get one Joe........but....... not when my local dealer wants 80k for one....nopeee
I love this car look good and Joe and Lori and keep up the good work and I love the video 👍
Amazing!
Love the 35MPH speed limit and ".... ON THROTTLE..." . Good stuff!
“Get your tissues ready.” I’m dying….about fell out of my chair when you said that.
lmfao @ the same key fob Noah used on the ark 😂
“Jamoc.”..you’re killin it JR..
Love the Z 🔥
Thanks Nicholas for letting me bring it to you!
For the gauge cluster cluster isnt suppose to have 3 style
The turbo mode wasnt blue before ?
The only problem I see are: 1) Nissan should have stepped up to a dual-clutch transmission (like my GoldWing cycle), 2) they have got to make the suspension auto adjust when you select SPORT. Great review.
I got mine last month and I LOVE it! It does have a few issues like the front bumper, wheel offset and exhaust. I think a lot will be addressed with the Nismo and I'll definitely be getting a lot of Nismo parts.
Regardless I don't regret it a bit 😊
That is so fantastic! Thanks for sharing that great ownership input.
What did u pay? First born and a kidney?
@@batman-telephoneman5479 Pretty much😬 I didn't go crazy but did pay over msrp :/
Congrats dude!
@@zedbets change ur username to Daddy Warbucks bro
Love the look of this…….and interior. 👍
Not with the crazy dealer mark ups. A local dealer is selling one for the same price as a G82 M4 😂
That is nuts Danny!
Mr Raiti, this color popps in the Florida sun ☀ great car its Mo Powa to the Moto & I'm looking to replace Ms Sky's 350 convert time to trade in 😮
Stiffening the suspension is pretty easy. I suspect the Nismo will be considerably firmer and have quicker gear shifts, along with a power bump.
Great job
Australia has so many of these second hand for sale. New sells for $80k AUD driveaway all costs included and second hand 1 yr old and 2-5000km, as low as $69k. MASSIVE depreciation here.
Hey Raiti, is this near Crystal River, FL? Beautiful area.
Still waiting to see one on the road in AZ 😢
Another great review and because of your history of ownership before marriage.
I will seal the deal with a
Nismo Z when it launches in the next year.
The Nismo should be bought as a anniversary of your love n reminder of what you always have been which is you.
Last thoughts 💭 is the body roll and all the other kinks will be worked out.
Besides you can afford it bro.
Goodluck ❤
This is the only guy that can make a prop rod look like a feature 😂
I sold my 2017 c7 z51 back in 2021 for a new mk5 supra. Coming from the c7 the supra felt soft and really was not fun to drive on back roads because of how floaty it felt. Sold it to carvana a few months later for more than I paid for it lol.
What do you have now?
Carvana over pays for cars so not a bad place to sell it there
This guy is super funny :) love the review 👍🏼
I appreciate you letting me share the laughs and the cars with you!
@@RaitisRides Heyy, definitely the 'ice cream scoops' had me dying, max airflow baby
What's the red light in the cupholders?
Ambient lighting.
I am kinda digging this new Z. And must say the comedy on this video is top notch, even more than usual. 😂
Thanks Jeff for letting me share it with you!
I've always wanted a Z. I'm a manual guy when it comes to performance vehicles and would like to have seen that one. I'm debating on spending the money for this one.
get a manual versa instead. this midget car is not worth the price. outside looks horrendous but inside looks nice.
Man when Joe goes on throttle I ca hear the turbos pumping all that air!
They made the Z a modern 2 seater G35 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 ALWAYS a great video from you!
Thanks Steve for taking the drive with me!
🇺🇸 *LOVE this NEW Nissan Z* !! *Difficult to argue w/ 400 HP* !! *Looks fun and tossable* !! *Competitive pricing* !! *Wonderful content Joe and Steven* !! #RaitisRides 🇺🇸
Ok bold font lady
Competitive pricing? 50K? No WAY
@@Freddy_Confetti😂😂😂😂
Had a 300zx as a 18 year old. Saved up for it, wrecked it like a dumbass in 2 months. 20 years later and I WAS ready to buy the new Z but the launch kept getting pushed. Bought an STI.
Omg that’s bad ass joe I love it
why didnt you show the rear trunk?
Powerful to have some fun and with enough cargo area to do the grocery shopping.
Great review on Nissan's tribute Z, the swan song for the history books. Now if they ever produce them. I'm dying to test drive one. Base Sport model for me, Rosewood sing color, with 18 in grey split five spokes, if i ever pull the trigger.
Thank you for letting ,e bring it to you!
I tried to get one and there are none to be found. This new model is very reminiscent of the original car. I love this car.
I want it in blue Wangan midnight 🔥❤️
Nissan Z,Ford Bronco,Jeep Wrangler & The Toyota Land cruiser 70series.,These Cars/Vehicles Are Modern Classics & I Love Them To Bits ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I got a dealership by my area that doesn’t do markups. Only thing is I don’t wanna get them right now just so the 1st year problems can get fixed. Probably gonna wait another 6 months.
For every vid I’m here for the “On Throttle,” but end up watching the entire Review 😂❤
Wow!!!!! THATS THE BEST!! SO FUCKIN GOOD!! ILL ALWAYS FOMMENT ON YOUR VIDEOS!!!!
I have not seen one of these on the streets and I'm all over the place in a city where you see some of everything.
Gorgeous car 👍. It's all about those turbocharged car's supercharged car's as well as naturally aspirated car's 👍
Joe, Herr in the DMV (Wash DC burbs) I’ve only seen one. Where are they all hiding?
Hey Joe, is it possible for you to maybe do a review on a 2014 Dodge Charger R/T? If so, that would be awesome
The 240- 260 hood flips forward tho, way cooler looking but harder to repair if crashed
had an 06 rev up Z for about 10 years, was really looking forward to this car. was hoping for more : /
Lmao "We still have the same key fob Noah used on the Ark" 😂
How could you love the headlights??? They look like dark flower petals. Not an aggressive look at all.
The actually looks like the my borrow some headlights from a old BMW z4.
