Should I buy a used Nissan Z now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Deal availability: The 2024 model has 34.8% good and great deals.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2025 model has the most listings. The Nissan Z offers a classic two-seat sports-car character with strong performance and a distinctive heritage-inspired design.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: One of the best things about the Nissan Z lives beneath its long, shapely hood. There, you’ll find a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine producing 400 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque (420 hp and 384 lb-ft in the Z Nismo). A six-speed manual gearbox or a nine-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters delivers that power to the rear wheels.
• Tech: In all Nissan Z trims, drivers face a 12.3-inch digital display with Normal, Enhanced, and Sport modes. The Z Sport has an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wired Apple CarPlay, wired Android Auto, and two USB ports, while the Z Performance, Heritage Edition, and Nismo add a 9-inch screen, wireless Apple CarPlay, NissanConnect Services with Wi-Fi hotspot access, a navigation system, and an eight-speaker Bose premium audio system.
• Safety: Nissan equips the Z with forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitors, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high-beam headlights.
• Starting price: Pricing ranges from $44,215 to $66,995, including the $1,245 destination charge.

If you're buying used today, the 2025 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
