2020 Nissan 370Z vs. Its Competition

2020 Nissan 370Z 50th Anniversary Edition
Andrew Ganz Andrew Ganz Senior Editor

Truthfully, the 2020 Nissan 370Z doesn’t have a direct rival.

The Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 twins are less costly when similarly equipped and they’re more precise but not nearly as powerful.

V-6 and turbo-4 versions of Detroit muscle cars feel more modern in most ways than the 370Z.

The Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro match the 370Z’s spirited handling and are more livable on a daily basis.

The Dodge Challenger delivers bravado like few other cars, though V-6-powered versions priced like the 370Z aren’t as inspired.
