The Fairlady gets performance and visual upgrades that make it grunt and grin better than ever

Nissan has face-lifted the 2013 version of their 370Z sports coupe. The 370’s history has become tradition as the 370Z dates back to October 1969 when the world first saw superiority in design and performance as Nissan rolled out their first Z tagged sports car called the ‘Nissan Fairlady Z’ and many that followed the successful series thereafter namely, the 240Z, the 260Z, the 280Z, the 280ZX, the 300ZX, the 350Z and the current 370Z that have all earned the best selling sports car series tag of all time since their inception and Nissan has never compromised on looks, reliability, performance, and affordability of the vehicles, making them any true blue enthusiasts’ manageable goal to achieve. The hot new fair lady is attractive, active and agile as always, producing 332 horses from its 3.7 Litre, V6 mill given the choice of a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed automatic transmission gearboxes.

New additions on the Z facelift are features like the vertical LED daytime running lights, rear reflectors, 19-inch aluminium-alloy wheels, and Euro-tuned shock absorbers that sound promising overall for a mere facelift. Apart from these things the lady will have two new paint colours - Magma Red and Midnight Blue. Also, the brake callipers get a red finish. The coupe will be available as a convertible and in the official in-house tuner masked Nismo which will put out an even more impressive 350PS and 276Nm of torque that equals serious track-conscious road-hugging performance. The 370Z has an power to weight of 206 bhp/tonne, which proves that the lady hails from a family of highly focused track bred sport coupes that have proved their mettle year in and out to enthusiasts and kept tradition alive to this date.
