The current-generation Nissan Z is an amazing sports car that, for a variety of reasons, most people are sleeping on. Now, we can add another one to that list, as its starting price is rising to no less than $1,500 for 2027.
Nissan confirmed the price hike today, while also announcing some updates and retro touches for the new model year. Just look at this: The new color-matched trim around the grille looks incredible, especially in Shinkai Green Pearl Metallic. The design has seen changes to the bumper, including replacing the Nissan logo with a Z badge, as well as 19-inch wheels with black spokes, which really highlight the coupe’s elegant nature without making it look too dressed up or feel too much like a race car.
If you want a race-car look, go for the Nismo variant, which now comes with a six-speed manual at no extra cost (compared to the automatic Nismo). You can read the Nismo manual review here.
The facelifted 2027 Z will be offered in four trims with either auto or manual: Z Sport, Z Performance, Z Nismo AT, and Z Nismo Manual. The starting price for the Z Sport is $45,725, including $1,245 destination. The Nismo starts at $68,505, including destination. All trims now see a price increase of $1,510.
If you’re interested in a 2027 Z, especially in one of the more desirable colors, place your order soon, because as we reported earlier this year, the average dealers will only be getting two to three cars this year.
