Nissan's 350Z has been a wonderful halo model for the company in Australia that has not lost its edge since being launched as a coupe, then a convertible, in 2003. Today's 350Z is more powerful, more refined and no thirstier, and five-speed auto versions get the 3.5-litre V6's full 230kW and 358Nm. The two-seat convertible punches above its weight with outstanding driveability and thrusting, meaningful acceleration. All 350Zs come with traction control, limited-slip differential, ABS, six airbags, 18-inch alloys, Xenon headlights, seven-speaker Bose audio with six-CD stacker, automatic climate control, cruise control, and heated and power adjustable leather sports seats.
