Nissan has trimmed the 370Z’s starting price in Canada by $10,000.
That’s right: for 2016, a base Nissan 370Z will set you back a hair under $30,000 – $29,998, to be exact. Not only is that on par with U.S. pricing, but based on today’s exchange rate, the Canadian model actually works out to be cheaper.
The base 370Z coupe, now known as the Coupe Enthusiast Edition, comes standard with 18-inch alloy wheels finished in black, HID headlights, automatic climate control, a cloth interior and Bluetooth connectivity.
Nissan’s 3.7-litre V6 is still under the hood, pumping out 332 horsepower and 270 lb.-ft. of torque. A seven-speed automatic transmission is available, but buyers who prefer to row their own gears can opt for a six-speed manual with available rev-matching technology – just in case you mess up those perfectly-timed downshifts.
If you’re looking for more performance, Nissan is offering up the 2016 370Z NISMO for $47,998, while the open-top 370Z roadster starts at $49,498 for 2016.
For comparison’s sake, the Hyundai Genesis Coupe starts at $29,499, while the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ retail for $26,670 and $27,395, respectively.
