2003 Nissan 350Z Preview

On sale this summer, Nissan's 2003 350Z will be lighter and more affordable than the previous version 300ZX. A 287-hp version of their award-winning 3.5-L V6 - also available in the Altima, Maxima, Pathfinder and Infiniti I35, QX4 and G35 - will drive the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual transmission. A sequentially shifting 5-speed automatic will also be available. While totally modern from every angle, its subtle 240Z and 300ZX styling cues won't let you forget where it came from.
