Z ® Roadster Touring Model shown in Daytona Blue.

®
NISSAN Z ROADSTER AND COUPE
PRINTED EXCLUSIVELY FOR PASSION. FREEDOM. A LITTLE SLICE OF HEAVEN. The Nissan Z® is one of those
few examples of a pure sports car. On every level. From the 287-hp engine filled with
racing technology, to the high-performance aluminum suspension, to the sleek lines of
the driver-oriented cockpit, it’s an experience you won’t want to share. And we’ve yet
to mention the Z® Roadster * — everything Z® plus a power-operated soft top that is
designed to fold down in 20 seconds, a rear glass window, and available ventilated
leather-trimmed net seats. But don’t take our word for it. Drive one yourself.
