TCC’s Bottom Line

The base 370Z is just about as barebones as it gets, with electronics and interior that were barely up to date in 2009, when the car was first released. Sport models add the right performance bits and don’t complicate the price tag too much.

If you value driving fun over pure power, there’s hardly a vehicle more up to the task than the 2019 Toyota 86.

Two people inside, that’s it
