First public appearance at the Los Angeles Auto Show on 19 November 2008.While Nissan has adopted the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" kind of mentality for its new sports car, nevertheless the 370Z will boast a more powerful 3.7-liter V6 engine -same as the one used in the Infiniti G37- with power channeled through a 7-speed automatic or a 6-speed manual gearbox, as well as a shorter wheelbase for better handling and a significantly improved interior.
