2024 Nissan Z Nismo Pricing Leaks Early

Pricing for the2024 Nissan Zhas allegedly leaked early, including pricing for the track-focusedZ Nismomodel. According to a post on theNew Nissan Z Forum, the 2024 Z starts at $42,210, a notable $1,220 increase over the 2023 model's $39,990 MSRP, not including the $1,095 destination fee. If you want the Z Performance with the limited-slip differential and other notable upgrades, that trim will start at $52,210 for the 2024 model year.

As for the Z Nismo, here's where the bad news begins. The more powerful, performance-oriented Nismo starts at $64,990, a whopping $12,780 more than the Z Performance. That's also more expensive than the Ford Mustang Dark Horse ($59,100), which has the Z Nismo outmatched by 80 horsepower.

As a reminder, theNismo tuned Z produces 420 horsepowerand 384 lb-ft of torque from its twin-turbocharged V6 engine. Unlike the standard Z, which is available with a six-speed manual transmission, the Nismo only comes with a nine-speed automatic transmission much to the chagrin of enthusiasts. Nissan isopen to the idea of giving the Nismo a manual, but nothing has been confirmed as of yet. At least the automatic gets retuned shift programming and upgrading clutch packs.

Other Nismo upgrades include stiffer suspension, stickier tires, RAYS alloy wheels, larger brake calipers, Recaro sport seats, and a Sport+ driving mode. On the exterior, it gets a ducktail spoiler, Nismo side skirts, and more.
