Nissan is making headlines yet again. Just last year, the automaker started green blogs and auto trades abuzz with the announcement of the Nissan Leaf, what will be one of the first electric vehicles to hit the market in the coming years. But that wasn’t all Nissan had up its sleeve for 2010; the manufacturer released the Nissan 370Z in both regular and anniversary editions, and the vehicle was just named the car with the highest resale value in its class of the year.
Winning awards is one thing, but you have to have the overall sporty performance of the 370Z when it comes to driving a sports car. Nissan Indianapolis dealers are already featuring this spectacular drive on showroom floors everywhere, and Indianapolis used Nissan dealers are foaming at the mouth just waiting for it to hit their shelves. Indianapolis Nissan 370Z dealers are already enjoying the benefits of the incredible vehicle.
The 370Z Coupe for 2010 comes in two models, 370Z and 370Z Touring, on sale now at your Nissan Indianapolis dealer. Each model is available with a standard 3.7-liter DOHC V6 engine that pumps out 332 horsepower and includes Variable Valve Event and Lift Control, as well as choice of a choice of six-speed manual transmission and available SynchroRev Match synchronized downshift rev matching system or a seven-speed automatic transmission. Kelley Blue Book was right to name this car the best resale value in its class, and Indianapolis Nissan 370Z drivers are reaping the benefits.
Kelley Blue Book editors said, “Regularly compared to performance coupes and convertibles that would cost you an additional five figures, the Nissan 370Z can be considered a bargain to begin with, which can be an important part of the resale value equation. Redesigned for 2009, Nissan's latest Z is the most powerful, most fun, most desirable iteration yet. Whether for a coastal cruise or a day at the track, we'd be happy to take one - new or used.”
The special 40th Anniversary Edition of the 370Z adds a few extra perks to the already snazzy package. In spring 2010, you can buy the car with red leather-appointed seats and red door panel inserts, 40th anniversary logos and stylings throughout the interior and exterior, premium smoke finish wheels and red caliper finish, and the exclusive “40th Quartz” colored paint for the exterior. But you can only get it on the Touring package, so be ready to upgrade.
And get this: you can also purchase the 370Z Roadster model – a convertible version of the solid vehicle. Just imagine yourself behind the wheel of the stylish car, the top down and the wind in your hair on a warm Indiana afternoon. Warm thoughts for this frigid winter. Regardless, it would be a fun drive, and I plan on testing her out when at my new and used Indianapolis Nissan dealership in the coming months.
What better time to buy a 370Z than on the Z-series’ 40th birthday? Take her out on the open road and see what you think of her.
