Evolution Of The Species

We Say: the Clock Is Ticking Faster for Traditional Sports Coupes.

- Richard Wiley

Charles Darwin would surely have taken to the Nissan Z series for the simple reason that evolution has trumped revolution with steadfast certainty. That means a biggish displacement, normally aspirated front engine driving the rear wheels – much like 50 years ago.

The newly-announced 2018 370Z marks the first titivation of any significance – a relative term in this context - since 2009, so what you see is mostly cosmetic. You won’t miss the rather garish chrome embellishers surrounding the door handles but the black-painted rear diffuser is more subtle as are the NISMOderived darkened front and rear lamps.
