Nissan’s classic Z sportscar gets a significant redo for 2010, but improves in every way. The engine is now a 332-hp 3.7-litre V6 with a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic. The car is actually smaller than the 350Z that spawned it, meaning a more nimble package. Coolest feature is the SynchroRev Match option that will automatically match the revs perfectly for downshifts when the clutch is depressed. Styling mimics the themes started on the Maxima, including the arrow-shaped headlights. Interior is much improved, with better materials and ergonomics.

Pros

Faster, lighter

Cons

Still expensive
