Reviving a classic color
Nissan is making waves in the automotive world as it prepares to bid farewell to the legendary GT-R this summer. In a move that has enthusiasts buzzing, the company has decided to bring back the iconic Bayside Blue color, a hue that has become synonymous with the R34-generation Nissan Skyline GT-R. Starting with the 2025 Z model, this vibrant shade will be available for fans eager to own a piece of Nissan’s storied history. The order books for the 2025 Z have just opened, and the excitement is palpable among car lovers.
New color options and pricing
Alongside the return of Bayside Blue, Nissan is also introducing two stunning two-tone exterior color options for the 2025 Z. These include a striking Pearl White Tricoat paired with a Super Black roof and a bold Solid Red with a Super Black roof. This fresh palette is sure to attract attention on the road. As for pricing, the 2025 Z remains consistent with the previous year’s figures, starting at $44,110 for the base Z Sport model, $54,110 for the Z Performance, and $66,890 for the high-performance Z Nismo variant. All prices include a destination charge of $1,140, making it easier for buyers to plan their purchase.
Performance and features that excite
Under the hood, the 2025 Nissan Z is powered by a robust twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 engine, delivering an impressive 400 horsepower in standard models and a thrilling 420 horsepower in the Z Nismo. The Nismo variant stands out with its exclusive 9-speed automatic transmission, while other models offer a 6-speed manual option at no extra cost. Even the base model comes well-equipped with features like 18-inch wheels wrapped in Yokohama ADVAN Sport performance tires, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and an 8.0-inch infotainment touchscreen that supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. For those looking to elevate their driving experience, the Performance model adds a premium Bose audio system, a larger 9.0-inch infotainment screen with navigation, and upgraded brakes, ensuring that every drive is both exhilarating and enjoyable.
Enhanced Nismo experience
The Z Nismo, introduced for the 2024 model year, takes performance to the next level with additional power, Nismo-tuned suspension, and enhanced brakes. It features Recaro sport bucket seats and aerodynamic bodywork that not only looks stunning but also improves performance. Riding on 19-inch Rays wheels wrapped in Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT600 tires, the Nismo variant is designed for those who crave speed and precision. Interestingly, despite the larger wheel size, Nissan claims that the Nismo’s wheels are lighter than those on the Performance model, showcasing the brand’s commitment to innovation and performance.
A tribute to the Z legacy
The introduction of the Z Heritage Edition, celebrating 55 years of the Z nameplate, was a highlight for 2024. However, this special edition is no longer available, marking a bittersweet moment for fans. As Nissan transitions into a new era with the Z, the return of Bayside Blue and the introduction of exciting new features signal a bright future for the brand. The 2025 Nissan Z is not just a car; it’s a celebration of Nissan’s rich heritage and a testament to its commitment to performance and style.
