The Nissan Z Coupe received a major redesign in 2009, so we didn’t expect anything crazy to come on board when the 2011 model came around. And, as everyone predicted, the 2011 Z Coupe strolled right in with no major updates.
Well, saying that there were no updates is a little unfair. Nissan is offering the addition of a RearView Monitor to the optional Navigation Package and one new exterior color, Gun Metallic. The 2011 Z Coupe will be available in two versions: the 370Z priced at $30,610 and the 370Z Touring priced at $35,280.
Under the hood there is the same 3.7 liter V6 engine with an output of 332 HP @ 7,000 rpm and 270 lb-ft of torque @ 5,200 rpm. The engine is mated to either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed automatic transmission.
The design for the Nissan takes some lessons right out of the 240Z style book with its sleek aerodynamic shape, a "dynamic motion" feel with a dramatic cantilevered roof, and a "low visual gravity." The interior offers Nissan Hard Drive Navigation System with 7-inch VGA touch-sensitive display, 9.3GB HDD Music Box, USB connectivity and iPod connection, XM NavTraffic with Real-Time Traffic Information, RearView Monitor, automatic phonebook download (select phones) and Bluetooth Streaming Audio, Bluetooth Hands-free Phone System, and standard Nissan Intelligent Key.
Press release after the jump.
