- Nissan 370Z - World's Most Complete Roadster -





COSTA MESA, Calif., Nov. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- NADAguides.com, the leading
provider of vehicle pricing and information, today announced that the 2010
Nissan 370Z Roadster has received the coveted NADAguides.com "Car of the
Month" award for November. The 2010 Nissan 370Z Roadster is in a class of its
own combining the very best in performance attributes both under the hood and
in the interior. The NADAguides.com team selected the Nissan 370Z Roadster
after testing several other contenders in this competitive class. The 370Z
Roadster simply stuck out as the clear leader of the pack.  

"Without a doubt, the 2010 Nissan 370Z Roadster is the world's most complete
Roadster. There are very few cars that really get your adrenaline pumping and
the 370Z Roadster delivers. What makes this car a standout is the exhilarating
feeling you get when you press down on the gas pedal and to hear the roar of
the exhaust makes you want to drive the car faster," said Michael Caudill,
auto expert, NADAguides.com. "But, it's not only the performance that makes
this 370Z Roadster a standout, it's the attention to detail in the interior.
Nissan's design team did a magnificent job in engineering a classy interior
that has the right amount of sportiness, combined with creature comforts you'd
expect to see in a higher priced convertible." 

The interior of the 370Z Roadster is highlighted by suede door panel inserts
and leather attributes from a leather-wrapped dashboard and steering wheel to
the soft and supple heating and cooling leather seats. The instrument cluster
is one feature that really gives the driver a sense of exciting performance.
All of the dash gauges point directly towards the driver and are illuminated
for clear visibility. The steering wheel is clutter free and has the right
number of buttons and switches designed for ease of use. Touch screen
navigation is optional and comes with real-time traffic. The Surround Sound
System by Bose cranks out the tunes with eight speakers and also integrates
Sirius Satellite Radio and an iPod/MP3 Media Interface. The Bluetooth offers
clear and easy hands-free phone use as well. 

Under the hood of the 370Z Roadster, the 3.7-liter, V6 picks up 26 horsepower
and 2 lb-ft of torque (332 horsepower @ 7,000 rpm and 270 lb-ft of torque @
5,200 rpm) compared with the previous 3.5-liter V6's 306 horsepower @ 6,800
rpm and 268 lb-ft of toque @ 4,800 rpm found in the previous 350Z Convertible.
The absolute best feature on the 370Z Roadster is the 6-speed manual
transmission with Nissan's SynchroRev Match(TM), which as Nissan explains;
"allows drivers of any skill level to experience professional-like gear shift
performance. The SynchroRev Match(TM) function automatically controls and
adjusts engine speed when shifting to the exact speed of the next gear
position, essentially "blipping" the throttle to smooth out any up/down
shifts." The manual transmission with SynchroRev Match is part of the Sport
package and a 7-speed automatic with downshift rev matching is also available.


The standard 370Z Roadster wheel and tire package features 18x8.0-inch
front/18x9.0-inch lightweight aluminum-alloy wheels with P225/50R18
front/P245/45R18 rear Bridgestone Potenza RE050A summer tires. Available as
part of the optional Sport Package are 19-inch RAYS forged lightweight
aluminum-alloy wheels with Bridgestone Potenza RE050A P245/40R19
front/P275/35R19 tires.

The Nissan 370Z Roadster's starting price is $36,970 for the base model. The
Touring Sport package starts at $43,320 and comes complete with Nissan sport
brakes, SynchroRev Match(TM) (manual transmission), viscous limited-slip rear
differential, 19" RAYS® super-lightweight forged alloy wheels, Bluetooth, Bose
eight speaker audio system and Sirius Satellite radio with iPod/MP3
connectivity.
