Used 2024 Nissan Z for Sale nearMilwaukee, WI

How much does the 2024 Nissan Z cost?

Prices have softened 2.22% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 323 listings available, which gives you a modest amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2024 Nissan Z a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Nissan Z earns a 4.5/5 user rating and a 6.67/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel and Performance.

Owners consistently praise the vintage-inspired design, strong performance, and driving experience that feels like a true sports car. The car also stands out for its handling and for offering a manual transmission, which adds to its appeal if you want a more involved drive.

The trade-offs are familiar for a sports coupe: cargo space is limited, value is not its strongest suit, and the ride can feel harsh on rough roads. That makes it best for you if style and performance matter more than everyday practicality.

With 40.2% of listings marked as good or great deals, there is still some room to shop carefully.

Is the 2024 Nissan Z reliable?

Owners rate it 4.5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a car that feels exciting and dependable in the ways sports-car shoppers care about most, especially when it comes to driving enjoyment and overall satisfaction. The expert evaluation also emphasizes that the Z is built around a focused, proven rear-wheel-drive sports-car formula, which supports confidence in how it should hold up over time.

The warranty coverage includes three years or 36,000 miles of basic coverage and five years or 60,000 miles of powertrain coverage, which helps reduce early ownership risk. For used buyers, the main long-term concern is less about complexity and more about how hard the car was driven and maintained.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Nissan Z?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 94.4% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially because sports cars are often driven harder than average. Focus on tire wear, brake condition, and signs of curb rash or track use, since those can reveal how the car was treated. If you are comparing listings, pay close attention to whether the car has the equipment you want, because the trim split changes the driving and tech experience quite a bit.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base Z Sport uses 18-inch alloy wheels, while the Performance and NISMO grades move to staggered Rays wheels and more aggressive tire setups. The NISMO also adds model-specific styling, Recaro seats, and red trim, so the lower trims are the ones to inspect closely if you want the simplest setup.
• Powertrain: All models use a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 with rear-wheel drive and a limited-slip differential. Sport and Performance models make 400 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque, while the NISMO raises output to 420 horsepower and 384 lb-ft and pairs only with the nine-speed automatic.
• Safety package: All models include adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, and forward collision warning. There are no trim-specific safety gaps called out in the data.
• Infotainment: The base car gets an 8-inch touchscreen with wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Performance and NISMO models upgrade to a 9-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay, a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot, and a Bose eight-speaker audio system with active noise cancellation.
• Fuel efficiency: EPA fuel economy ratings for 2024 models were not available in the data.

Which 2024 Nissan Z trim should I buy?

The 2024 Nissan Z is offered in 3 trim levels: Sport, Performance, NISMO.

Here's the short version:

• Sport: This is the entry point, and it gives you the core Z experience with the twin-turbo V6, manual or automatic transmission, rear-wheel drive, and the standard 8-inch touchscreen. It makes the most sense if you want the Z’s style and performance without paying for extra hardware you may not need.
• Performance: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the 9-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay, Wi-Fi hotspot, Bose audio, and upgraded wheels and tires. If you want the most balanced mix of equipment and price, this is the one to target.
• NISMO: This is the most track-focused version, with more power, stiffer chassis tuning, upgraded brakes, Sport+ mode, Recaro seats, and unique styling. It is the right pick if you want the most capable Z and are willing to pay for it.

All models include the same standard driver-assistance features, so you do not need to move up a trim just to get the core safety package.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Nissan Z?

It looks like a buyer-friendly moment if you are shopping carefully.

• Deal availability: 40.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 323 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.22% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 94.4% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $41,638, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Nissan Z's resale value?

The current average of $42,613 sits slightly below last year's $43,581.

That softer pricing suggests the market has cooled a bit, which can help you buy more confidently now but may also limit upside if you plan to sell soon. For a future seller, the key is to preserve condition and documentation, because a well-kept sports car tends to stand out more when buyers are comparing similar listings. The current price range also shows that the model still has a meaningful floor, which can help support resale if demand stays steady.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Nissan Z safe?

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) hadn’t released crash-test ratings for the current-generation Nissan Z at the time of publication.

It earns a 6/10 safety score from our experts.

All Nissan Z models include adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, and forward collision warning. That gives you a solid standard driver-assistance package across the lineup.

Should I buy a 2024 Nissan Z or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 40.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 94.4% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.22% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• For 2024, Nissan adds more performance, and the NISMO returns with extra power, a stiffer chassis, and upgraded brakes.

Consider the 2023 if:

• It introduced the redesigned Z and established the current-generation formula.

The bottom line: If you want the stronger current-year market conditions plus the added performance and trim continuity, the 2024 is the better default choice. If you are mainly chasing the lowest entry price and can live without the 2024 updates, the 2023 remains a sensible alternative.
