The new Z looks incredible and drives well enough to make you forget what you're signing up for.

Here's the thing — Nissan built a gorgeous shell around some decisions that are going to cost you down the line. And nobody at the dealership marking these up $10K over MSRP is going to mention any of it.

We broke it down in this carousel:
→ What Nissan quietly carried over (and why it matters more than the VR30 swap)
→ The ownership costs that hit after the honeymoon period ends
→ The transmission situation nobody wants to talk about
→ Who this car actually makes sense for (yes, there is a case)
→ What else you should cross-shop before signing

This isn't a hate post. The RZ34 is a good-looking car with real potential. But "potential" shouldn't cost you $55K+ and a prayer. Too many people are buying on nostalgia and dealer hype without understanding what they're actually getting into compared to the competition at that price point.

Save this for your buddy who's about to put a deposit down. Or for yourself if you're on the fence — knowing the full picture is how you make a decision you don't regret two years in.
