Nissan has announced UK pricing for its updated 370Z range. The good news for prospective buyers is that the entry-level coupé now costs £26,995, a reduction of £3,005.
On the other hand, anybody who has recently bought a pre-facelift model is likely to be unimpressed by the instant depreciation hit on their car.
Perhaps that price cut is in response to the arrival of the Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ twins, which both have £24,995 price tags. Like the Nissan, they are rear-wheel drive coupés, yet their four-cylinder boxer engine can’t match the 370Z’s V6 motor for power or performance. However, a GT86 / BRZ should be cheaper to run thanks to superior fuel economy and a significantly lower vehicle excise duty rate.
And then there’s the six-cylinder BMW 125i M Sport Coupé. Now marginally more expensive than the Nissan, it almost combines the efficiency of the GT86 / BRZ with the 370Z’s pace:
Apart from the revised prices, changes to the 370Z for 2013 are limited to a redesigned front bumper that gains some daytime running lights.
As well as the basic 370Z and a new higher-output Nismo variant, the other available trim grade is the GT. Offered in either coupé or roadster guise, it additionally comes with larger 19” alloy wheels, red brake calipers, satellite navigation and a superior audio system.
