Nissan 370Z 50th Anniversary Edition breaks cover

The Nissan 370Z 50th Anniversary Edition is now on sale, after it was launched at the New York Auto Show earlier this year. This special edition model is part of the company's celebration of the anniversary of its iconic Nissan GT-R and ‘Z’ badged models. Only 22 of these special 370Zs will make it to the UK, and buyers will need to pay £38,995 - quite the premium over the £29,870 starting price of the current model.

Powered by the same 324bhp 3.7-litre V6 engine as the standard model, the 50th Anniversary Edition features a six-speed manual gearbox sending power to the rear wheels, and can get from 0-62mph in 5.3 seconds before reaching a top speed of 155mph.
