Some Interesting Facts
Drop-Top Version of the 370Z Coupe The 370Z Roadster is the convertible counterpart to the 370Z coupe, offering the same performance and handling with the added appeal of open-air driving.
Powered by a 3.7L V6 Engine At its heart is a naturally aspirated 3.7-liter V6 (VQ37VHR), producing 332 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque, delivering strong acceleration and a throaty exhaust note.
0–100 km/h in Around 5.5 Seconds With its powerful V6 and lightweight chassis, the 370Z Roadster can accelerate from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in about 5.5 seconds, making it a quick and capable sports convertible.
Available with Manual or Automatic Transmission Buyers could choose between a 6-speed manual gearbox with SynchroRev Match (auto-blipping downshifts) or a 7-speed automatic with paddle shifters for dual-mode driving fun.
Power Soft Top with Glass Rear Window The 370Z Roadster features a fully automatic fabric soft top that opens or closes in about 20 seconds, with a heated glass rear window for year-round usability.
Enhanced Chassis Reinforcements To maintain structural rigidity without a fixed roof, the Roadster includes extra bracing and chassis stiffening, ensuring precise handling and reduced body flex.
Luxurious GT-Style Interior Options Higher trims like the Touring and Sport Touring added features like Bose premium audio, leather-appointed seats, heated and cooled seating, and navigation, enhancing its grand touring appeal.
Sporty but Comfortable Ride The suspension is tuned to balance agility with comfort, making the 370Z Roadster suitable for both weekend canyon carving and relaxed top-down cruising.
Aggressive Z-Car Styling With muscular fenders, a long hood, and a short rear deck, the 370Z Roadster retains the classic rear-wheel-drive proportions that define the Z-series, even with the roof down.
End of the Line in 2019 The 370Z Roadster was discontinued after the 2019 model year, making it the last convertible Z-car (as of now), since the newer Nissan Z (400Z) debuted only in coupe form.
Nissan 370Z Roadster - Price
The 370Z Roadster is Nissan’s last pure sports convertible—a 3.7L V6 with 332hp, rear-wheel drive, and no turbos or hybrid nonsense. Rarer in Europe than a Porsche Boxster but far more affordable, it’s a future classic for analog driving enthusiasts.
