Super interior fit and finish

Marketplace Editor

James Wong drove this car and these were their findings:

Hits

She's a looker
Tangible upgrades over standard Z
Old-school character has appeal

Misses

$100,000 on the road
Still remnants of 370Z DNA
Not as fast or as polished as a Supra

Reviews

2024 BMW XM Label Red review

The best of both worlds? The BMW XM is supercar-killing twin-turbo V8 monster masquerading as an electrified SUV.

2024 Nissan Z Nismo review

Nismo's new Z Coupe dials up the standard car's aggression with better performance and handling, but should you spend $100,000 on a Nissan?
