Celebrate 50 Years Of Z Cars With The New Nissan Heritage Edition

Nissan has been creating cars since the 1930s, and with each year they strive to make their models stand out from the competition with revolutionary design choices and premium technological features. Each year, every car is updated in looks and features, including the Nissan 370Z. The first Z car was introduced 50 years ago and in 2018 Nissan is celebrating this milestone with the Heritage Edition of the 370Z.  Come celebrate with us at Coast Nissan with tremendous savings on Nissans in San Luis Obispo.

2018 Upgrades

All Nissan 370Z trims will sport a sleeker and more aerodynamic design, as well as some performance changes. The styling is bolder this year, especially on the Roadster version, and there are several new exterior paint options so you can customize the car even further to your liking. The Coupe offers four trim levels and the Roadster offers three, all of which improve particular aspects of the car such as acceleration or precision turning. The tune and clutch are also being upgraded to allow for smoother transitions and all trims can be ordered as a seven-speed automatic or six-speed manual. The NISMO variant is also receiving new features that make the car more like its big brother, the GT-R.

Heritage Edition

The Heritage Edition features a limited-edition styling that you can’t find on any other Nissan sports car. Customers will be able to choose between a bold black on yellow paint scheme or a silver on black version. These color choices carry over throughout the interior with custom trims and detailing that bring the car together as a whole.

Change Your Entire Driving Experience With A Nissan Sports Car

Nissan Sports Car

One of the most treasured qualities of sports cars is their ability to inspire excitement and enjoyment when driving. Many people consider driving to be just another boring activity that they must do to get from place to place, but with the right engine and style of car, it can be exhilarating. It is truly amazing that simply owning a Nissan sports car can completely transform one of the most integral parts of everyday life. At Coast Nissan, your source for new and used cars San Luis Obispo, you can experience the thrill of driving a Nissan GT-R or Nissan 370Z, our most popular sports cars.

Nissan 370Z

The Nissan 370Z Coupe is the perfect model for drivers looking to make the switch to a performance vehicle, thanks to its easy-to-use features and affordable price. The V6 engine produces 350 horsepower that easily accelerates the car thanks to its lightweight construction, while also maximizing fuel efficiency. The car’s handling is nimble and athletic even while at high speeds because of its innovative design, and the optional manual transition gives drivers the opportunity to enjoy a more “hands on” experience. Also be on the lookout for a possible upcoming Midnight Edition at your local San Luis Obispo car dealer.

Nissan GT-R

If you want a true sports car that competes on the track as easily as it accelerates down the open road, there is no better model than the GT-R. With an incredible 565 horsepower on the base model and 600 horsepower on the NISMO version, going from 0 to 60 mph is a trivial task. It also has better seating than many other sports cars, so you can bring up to three additional passengers along for the ride. Several luxury features also come standard, like zero-gravity seats and a Bose audio system.

Nissan Unveils New Sports Car and Electric Hybrid

Smart and sport don’t generally go together, especially in the world of cars. Most hybrids or electric cars lack the engine power to provide a stunning and exhilarating level of acceleration, and most sport cars have a low fuel efficiency and fewer technical features. Thanks to Nissan though, you will soon be able to have the best of both worlds. Recently, Nissan unveiled its new prototype EV sports car, nicknamed the #BladeGlider, which will be available in the near future at dealerships like Coast Nissan.

The latest Nissan trailer featured famous actress Margot Robbie, who test drove the car out on a closed race track in Monaco. In the short video, she shows off the incredible maneuverability and speed the sports car shows by piloting the car around one of the most famous corners of the racing world: the Fairmont Hairpin. The car effortlessly glides around the track, highlighting the never-before-seen power of the powertrain electric engine. Manufactured by UK-based Williams Advanced Engineering, this new engine can accelerate the car 60 miles per hour in under five seconds, and can reach a maximum velocity of 115 mph. This latest setup also features two 130 kW electric motors for each wheel that can compensate for understeering through a process known as torque vectoring.

 

Other notable features of this new sports car include a new seat configuration that has one driver in the front near the “nose” of the car and two seats behind it. This makes the driver feel more immersed in the experience much like an airplane pilot in the cockpit. The #BladeGlider has been in development for over four years, dating back to a concept car in early 2013. Since then it has been refined and improved using the latest in electric vehicle technology, so drivers can both be exhilarated and environmentally comfortable.

 

Look for this efficient and good looking sports car to arrive soon at dealerships like Coast Nissan, where we offer the best deals on other electric cars like a new or used Nissan Leaf. All our cars are backed by our customer support and five star Nissan service, so give us a call or visit us online at www.coastnissan.com.

Find Your Ideal Sports Car From Nissan’s NISMO Division

nissan performance

Nissan has a particular division responsible for the creation of their high performance and sport vehicles known as NISMO. This group was founded on the cornerstones of power, agility and technology, and they perfectly incorporate all three of these elements into every car. One of the longest standing NISMO models is the Z line, which has evolved over the years from its first model in 1969. The latest Nissan NISMO sports car, the 370Z, creates a unique and exhilarating driving experience at an incredibly affordable price point.

 

The 370Z NISMO Tech starts at a little over $46,000, and is so loaded with power and features that Business Insider called it, “…an incredible value for the money in sports cars.” The 350-horsepower V6 engine accelerates the car quickly to breathtaking speeds, while still maintaining the agility and precision that are so important in sports car design. This is why agility is a major focus area of NISMO, as speed is useless if you can’t safely and effectively control the car. The design allows for an aerodynamic and stylish look, which is accented by the powerful raised hood and integrated spoiler on the back.

 

The interior also will leave you breathless. Fine leather on the seats with a great color scheme is comfortable and will hold you snug at higher speeds. The infotainment system provides navigation assistance, multiple audio inputs, Bluetooth capabilities and smartphone connectivity. The trunk area even incorporates a hatchback into its design to provide enough room for suitcases and gear for a weekend getaway.

 

The #NISMO370Z was summed up as, “…easy on the wallet and fulfilling when you put the pedal down and dig into a corner.” This sports car is exciting and fun to drive, and you too can test drive one at Coast Nissan, or you can find all of our new 2017 models online at www.coastnissan.com.

Nissan Unveils A GT-R For True Racing Fans

nissan performance

When it comes to sports cars, each company works hard to find the right engine and build that really makes the car come alive. For Nissan, its flagship GT-R model that only appeared in March has already been a top seller, thanks to its sleek design and incredible feel. This car has shown such great success that Nissan has recently unveiled a new Track Edition which tweaks the car to provide better performance.

 

The Track Edition was developed by Nissan’s NISMO racing division, which excels in putting out race ready cars. The crew managed to add some more horsepower and better stability. The engine is a hand-assembled 3.8-1 twin-turbo monster that power out 562 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque, slightly above the engine in other GT-R models. This provides top of the line acceleration and speed.

 

To go along with this extra power, #Nissan altered the design in order to make it as aerodynamic as possible, minimizing the impact of any wind. The straight-line stability and cornering ability has been improved to keep the car on the ground when making the tight turns you can find on the track. Nissan also installed bespoke Bilstein Damptronic suspension and an anti-roll bar which can stiffen up the car but ensures the weight is kept down. After all, what is the point of going fast if you can’t do it safely?

 

This GT-R track version will first be available in Europe, but Nissan has plans to quickly transition that market to America at dealerships like Coast Nissan. If you need a new sports car, come test drive the Nissan GT-R in any of its forms for an exhilarating driving experience.

Nissan Is a Performance Brand: The Top 5 Proof Points

nissan performance

Nissan is blazing an exciting new path and we’re loving the ride.

 

A lot of people would not associate the word “performance” with the global car manufacturer Nissan. We get it. After all, the Leaf is made by Nissan. Can the Leaf be considered a performance car? Probably not.  The Leaf is just the start of the direction Nissan is going, though. We think it’s pretty cool that they can push off their long-developed technologies for electric vehicles to speed ahead in the performance arena. They usually stun with a new car, or a win, at Le Mans, so that’s nothing to sneeze at. And they are great at combining the fuel technologies of tomorrow with performance builds. We don’t see any other car manufacturers that have the same kind of focus and that makes Nissan unique. Here’s more proof that Nissan is owning the reputation of a performance brand:

 

  1. They were rated one of greatest Japanese sports cars of all time.

Maxim magazine ranked the Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 as one of the top sports cars ever coming out of Japan. This car is now considered practically an antique, but it shows that Nissan has a history of performance know-how.

  1. They were a top performer at the Olympics.

Nissan stunned the world with the unveiling of their 2017 BladeGlider prototype in Rio last August, touted to be one of first ever all-electric sports cars. It is the embodiment of future technologies, and demonstrates where Nissan is focusing their brand (on the future!)

  1. They are bringing even more performance to their EVs.

The infrastructure for electric vehicles continues to grow both here in the states and across the pond, and Nissan is keeping up with demand by constantly improving the batteries and other performance factors in their electric vehicles—proving that performance is their mission in every country and for every model.

  1. They are learning from the past and building on their success.

Speaking of the GT-R R32, wait until you see how Nissan has revamped it for 2017. It’s the most gorgeous muscle car we’ve ever seen.

  1. They keep revving their engines.

Nissan clearly understands the power of a powerful engine. You would be hard-pressed to find another automaker that has produced more performance-oriented engines than Nissan. For people who care about going fast, Nissan always delivers the horsepower.

 

Why not find the Nissan of your dreams at Coast Nissan?  Our award-winning team is here to help you.
