From the start, Nissan was clear that the latest version of its Z line of sports cars is for enthusiasts. The base model Nissan Z is just that, and designed to be a base for tuners, although we enjoyed it as a grand tourer. Then there’s the Performance trim for out-of-the-box performance, and the Heritage Edition for those who are truly invested in the Z line. But then there’s the Nissan Z Nismo – and it’s for those who want a car that can brutalize a back road or a track, straight from the factory.
