The Nissan 370Z Nismo is an exciting sports car -- but it's too old, and it's overpriced. Today I'm reviewing the 370Z Nismo to show you what I mean, and I'm going to show you all the quirks and features of the Nissan 370Z Nismo before driving the Nismo Z.

Rent your car out to Doug and watch it depreciate
You really think Doug's opinion matters to people.I don't
mbsnyderc you really think yours does?
The only time Doug can really be critical of a car is when he rents it himself. It would be interesting to see how he acts about a car (even an extremely expensive one) that he borrows while still being completely honest about everything pertaining to the vehicle
@@mbsnyderc to be fair he does seem like an influencer for car people.
He almost made me change my mind
Doug suffered from not having an owner available for this video. I am a huge Doug fan, watching all his videos. However, I had a Z back in 2010 (and it was fairly outdated then) and went down the rabbit hole for the few years I had it. I modified it to address some of the gripes he mentioned. However, there are some big misses here, that are just because he didn’t do enough research before creating this video. My main issues are as follows:
- The “effects” setting involves the animation and “gauge swing” when starting the car.
- The tire reminder is worthwhile, because I typically got 3-5K miles out of a rear set, before they started slipping in even mild rain and required replacement
- The “key slot” is not to store your key. The keyless entry is optional (or was at one time) so the slot is where you inserted the key to start it. Even if you had the option (I did, mine was a loaded sport touring), it was still valuable because the slot charged the key batteries
- the visor extender was still useful when facing forward as it can slide behind the rear view mirror.
- The blank switches on the center console are for the heated seats (ventilated as well on the convertible) and yes, convertible top. The Recaro seats in the NISMO aren’t available with heating, ergo they are blanked out. Most Zs do have the heated seats.
- The red light in the center of the diffuser is a rear fog light in international markets. I agree it looks much better installed and is available as a brake light aftermarket.
- There is a spare tire in the Z. The subwoofer is actually clever packaging and sits in the upside down spare. If Doug had dug a little deeper, removing the black styrofoam around the sub, he would’ve realized the sub was just sitting in the wheel and there is indeed a spare, hence the very shallow load floor.
Overall, I agree the Z is horribly outdated, but when I bought mine, it was much smaller and more nimble than a mustang, but with far more power than a Miata, S2000 or MR2. It bridged a gap between sport roadster and muscle car, that the other didn’t do, though perhaps it did neither well. Regardless, I enjoyed mine years ago, and it’s sad that it’s exactly the same today. I found it funny that mine was a 40th Anniversary Edition from 2010, and the 50th Anniversary Edition was still the same, virtually untouched model. 🤦🏻♂️
Thank you for taking your time to write this underrated comment! I hope you're having a wonderful day
Thank you Clay.
Before I bought the car I said “wow no spare tire that’s crazy.” Fast forward 2 years later, really Doug 😂😂. Nissan does hide it pretty well though…….he’s a reviewer shouldn’t be making these types of mistakes he’ll have somebody thinking they really don’t have a spare tire during a emergency situation/flat
Once you drive it with a single exit exhaust, possible even equal length headers. It sounds so exotic.
@@BuildFly Oh yeah, an exhaust makes a huge difference. I modified mine with a Fast Intentions 18" resonated exhaust with their resonated high flow cats, as well. It sounded great, and people would ask me all the time if I had done a V8 swap, because it sounded so deep and smooth.
I have a video on UA-cam here: ua-cam.com/video/yYyUHs8-RpE/v-deo.html
I remember how awesome these looked when they came out, and 10 years later, they still don't look terribly outdated compared to brand new cars. nissan did well and I'm not even a fanboy

People complain about 370z being outdated, but when Nissan stopped making it everybody complained that "nobody makes true raw sports cars anymore!"
Frankly, I don't know how people have so much money that they can get bored of their car and buy a new one every couple of years, or trade up to the new model of the same car. If I end up buying an RX-8 S2, or a 370z (with heated seats and sunroof) or a Corvette (C4 or C5) I'm going to take care of it and drive it until it blows up or wears out. By then, there will be a flood of additional vehicles that I've never tried before that I can buy on the used market.
I think being a car reviewer can really break one's perspective. Most of us drive five to ten cars throughout our lifetimes. These guys are driving five to ten a month!
Imagine being on Turo

The first day in the military, our Lt literally ordered us to advance 5 minutes our watches. On time is too late. (he also said you may only take it back to the "right" time once we achieved captain rank and higher)

@@randomperson7135 that's his point
I love the z sound. It’s very unique other than sounding very similar to the GTR without the turbo sounds. A nice set of exhaust that aren’t too overwhelming really makes it sing.
“Finally, a Doug review on my car!” Oh
Your car is over price ugly crap
“Outdated” isn’t necessarily a bad thing. For example hydraulic steering, naturally aspirated power, manual transmission option. Honestly the styling still looks great. I understand it’s not exactly worth it paying 40-50k for a car that’s 10 years old. But I think the car still looks relative and besides being slightly low on power, I think it’s still a very enticing package. I used to live next to a tuning shop that specialized in these v6 engines (350/370z, Infiniti’s) and with a simple turbo kit, they were pushing close to 500 to the wheels. Some were in the 600’s. Basically a Nissan GT-R but rear wheel drive and stick shift.
Is 350 horsepower really "low on power"? I'd say that's pretty much exactly what a car like this should have. Once you start getting into 400 horsepower range, you're really pushing the market you're in.
What color are those pants?
Doug: Well, they're my favorite color, Traffic Emphasis.

Doug is the type of guy to review an Automatic 370Z Nismo and give it a 6 on Fun Factor
Darksyne yeah I was pissed when I realized he did that, still scored it higher than I expected for value though
Nissan is toast
Its a 12 year old design. There has been MUCH funner cars released in the last 12 years.
Like he said in the video. a much faster, much more advanced mustang can be had for $10k less.
@@TheRickyH It's an oldschool rear wheel drive, 350hp+ naturally aspirated sports car. With a manual its the kind of sports car most people want, the only thing holding this car back is the outdated infotainment and the automatic... So I agree with Doug calling a brand new Nissan 370Z outdated and over priced.
Automatic is better though
Traffic emphasis has always been my favorite color
That key slot isn't for storage, you put the key in there in case the key fob battery dies. It senses the key and turns on the car. Also this is not a fully loaded version of the car. It comes with a touch screen if you get that option. But like usual Doug does minimal research and then makes up stuff about how things work.
this man is literally flying out to review a cool car and reviewing a cool rental car before hand.

Everyone has different standards, some people I guess have none.
Old and outdated are getting more and more valuable than new and trendy. If you make a car that's look old or outdated, 3 pedals, a shifrer, RWD and fun in this day and age, people will do anything (may including doing Fast anf Furious truck heist with Civics) to get their hands on that car.
Go for it. I did and I'm still absolutely thrilled everytime I get into it. It's an old school RWD car with plenty of hrsprs and a 6spd manual. also, I think it has a timeless design. The side lines, the huge a55 rear fenders....looks just so good.

The vvel tech is actually still pretty cool tech. It’s a fantastic engine. The car is def over priced, and you didn’t note the nismo exhaust is different. Also, the 7at with the rev matching downshifting.
I've always set my clocks 5 minutes faster to avoid being late for things. But I always end up subtracting 5 from the displayed time and am late regardless.
How about you set your time to normal time? Or ask your friend to change it back to normal time when you are not paying attention?

I love it, everything about it is perfect for my style, and driving habits. It has flaws, but is perfect for me. I'm glad they're overpriced. No ones gonna' buy em, then out of the few people who do, will mostly end up selling them to get the new 400Z, and then I'll be able to afford it. Then, years later, the Nismo will be the most desired Z of that generation, and the car will end up going up in value, and paying for itself. Possibly even going on to be a rare classic, worth tons due to its rarity, versus driving experience... I'm glad it doesn't have all those nannies, or a modern guage cluster. That's the type of stuff that ruins a car for me. I end up having to do tons of research on how to bypass, and disable all that junk. I want information on the engine, my speed, rpms, and the time, and that's it. That Nismo 370Z is one of the greatest sports car ever made. Doug may not get it, but history will show us that it was one of the last great analog sports cars, and ALL of the last generation of analog sports cars are going to end up skyrocketing in value, aroud 20, 30 years from now... So don't believe Dougs hype. Get that car with a manual 6 speed, and I guarantee you fall in love with it... and it'll only be around $25k by 2025...
As much as I also love this car, I really don't think it will be one of the standouts down the road as far as collectibles go. Nothing about it is really that "special", and I can't see it holding the same value as stuff like the 90s Japanese cars. You could be right for all we know, just my take.

The dash looks like it’s from the 1990’s.
and for some people its a whole vibe
no not really. it looks like it's from 2000s. 300zx (second run) looks like the 90s.
Good
It looks like a 2010 Infiniti which makes sense cause it’s Nissan...
@@loosy_odt exactly. It’s a whole MOOD
I can't stop playing that cargo floor thing over and over again😂😂😂😂
THIS is a 2019 Doug DeMuro, and he is pretty good.
Doug was born this year? Man... Dougs sure grow up fast.
@@lotusamg6997 XDDDDDD
It should be "THIS is a 2019 Doug, and he is pretty DeMuro".
The cargo shorts were an optional extra. But pretty much required for a Florida DeMuro.
No it's not, check out cracks on leather while Doug adjusts the seat.
The 3 gauges on the middle of the dash are a throwback to previous z generations. My 280zx has oil pressure, voltage and a clock
We can tell. It would be a good place to add more useful gauges, especially if you are going to tune it.
@@niccadoodles yup, a redundant clock instead of like oil temp/pressure, so dumb.
@Chris Alexy yeahh but not in the middle of the dash where it would be nice to have.
tokuzumi1 you have a 280zx i envy you
So did my Altimeter SE-R when I had it but instead of a clock it had MPG gauge.
I like a good harsh review, helps Nissan get on their game. 👍🏾
That red reflector on the rear bumper is likely the location of the rear fog light. Rear fog lights aren't mandated in the usa so they probably just placed a reflector there
I painted my house Traffic Emphasis. That's how much I love it.
Alan Jones 😂
Where did you get the paint? I went to Home Depot and they were just confused when I asked.... useless employees...
Traffic emphasis and dui checkpoint is what I painted my doghouse
The secret of the "Effects" option solved. Quick Google revealed the following from the 370Z owners manual.
EFFECTS
Select this menu to set the dial effects
described below to on or off.
- The indicator needles sweep in the
meters when the engine is started.
All of my clocks around me are 4-6 min fast.
You forget about it fast and have few minutes spared in case you need.
Works for me perfect and even my kids are used to it now.
It’s like having extra few liters, when your tank shows empty, but much more often needed.
Got a 2020 sports touring certified $30k 1500 miles. Has more than the nismo minus the HP increase. Better seats, the 3 buttons are for heated seats and trunk release. Love the Z . Fun and fast. I do miss the blind spot detection but $8 blind spot mirrors work just as well without the beeps. It’s a hell of a car and the 400z comes out soon. If you can find a sport or sport touring in your price range grab it. I would stay away from the base model unless you are going to to tear it apart anyway to make it a drift car.
Doug's the type of guy to use turn signals on a race track.
Well actually you *do* use them on a track - to signify you're letting someone pass.
@@m00hk00h you do?... I didn't know...lol
muh kuh you would want to let someone pass you when you’re racing 🤨... i mean i guess
This exact "joke" was already on 3 other videos. Nice one.
jalen saunders if youre driving a mustang and an Arial atom comes up behind you, you let them pass.
Some non car person probably saw the Nissan GT-R and was like wow that’s nice and went to the dealership and accidentally bought this
Anon1993
Hahaha. Good one! 😂
@@mikem1194 Not really.
It’s just a budget gtr lol
Anon1993 your stupid
Brian Anxieton and then brakes down constantly because it’s now German shite
I like the traditional style gauge clusters
Science teacher - what effects are we talking?
Doug- I don't know
Outdated and overpriced describes 95% of the Nissan line-up.
So what about the gtr
Oooh the GTR is amazin and also the Passat and the tiguan
chris jamez Passat and Tiguan are VW? Either I’m missing a joke here, or that is criminally insulting towards Volkswagen
@@abdullahrashid6175 5%
@@abdullahrashid6175 The GTR is awesome but it is also very much outdated and overpriced.
4:00 well.... I don't know.
THAT was hilarious phrasing!
You meant 3:48, for context
lehmanpolarbear70 it was great👌🏼😂😂😂
I’ve owned the 90s 300zx TT as well as the couple of 350z(DE). Never owned the 370z but I did have the g37 sedan and coupe. I currently own a 2014 q50 basically majority of them are VQ engines. With the Z line I really love my old 300zx TT I get so much respect from people on the road and compliments than my 350z. Especially that mine was pretty modded love the power on that thing didn’t have much off the line but has top end power. I had the ugly red or maroon carpet interior lol but I changed it out all to black even the door panels to black, changed the seats to leather man oh man it was a lot of work to do that. Swapped it out from a different 300zx.
Thanks for putting up the annoying Ads that you can't skip Doug lol! I have owned z cars since a teen and will Always love them,no matter what you say Doug. My buddy at work bought a 2013 for only 10k. Great deal and fun to drive. To each his own.
doug the type of guy to say ‘traffic emphasis’ when someone asks him his favorite color
Guy who owns car: Aw sweet Doug Demuro did a video with my car!
Doug: this car is severely outdated and blows chunks. It does have a cool lock near the trunk release though.
Guy: **Hangs himself on his ceiling fan**
Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
Nah, Doug is just the worst car enthusiast on the planet.
@@NaruSanavai Found the owner
@@nishankharel4842 Ha! I _wish_ I owned this car.
@@nishankharel4842 Doug is kind of an idiot tbh. No I dont own any Nissans.
I recently picked up a 2020 Sport Touring model and I absolutely love! It's my daily and really puts a smile on my face everytime I walk up to it. I also used to drive a 2017 sport trim model and the interior in my 2020 z is MUUUUCH nicer!
i been looking for a sports car like a 370z, 2021 supra or the new 2023 nissan z's which other cars around the 40k price would u recommend/
I offset my clock because I live with slow people, infuriatingly slow I have to trick them into doing everything early if I want to get anywhere in life with them.
You might need new or different people. Have you ever thought of shape-shifting alien reptiliens?
This, exactly -- I use it to lie to people.
Cell phones, cable boxes and wi-fi enabled everything have really diluted the effectiveness of this tactic sadly.
If I was married I'd set my wife's car's clock 20 minutes early because we know women can't make it anywhere on time.
Same same. I changed the clock in a friend's car on the sly. He stopped being late. Best psyop ever
10:14 Doug is finally doing 0-60 videos 👌😂👌
Ayyaz Mahmood LOL
Trueeee
I’ll be honest
I love the exterior and think the interior is alright
Im a big Z FAN....I own a 1994 300zx Z32........im not a big fan of the newer models but Doug once again gave a great review
