How much does the Nissan Z cost in today's market?
Used Nissan Z prices span a wide range depending on model year. Here's what the market looks like right now:
| Model Year | Current Avg. Price | Year-Round Range |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | $42,401 | $41,514 – $44,427 |
| 2024 | $42,521 | $41,631 – $43,795 |
The Nissan Z's current nationwide average price is $42,476, and over the past year it reached a low of $42,165. Recently, prices have come down for the 2024 and 2025 models, making now a good time to shop recent model years.
Is the Nissan Z a good car?
Yes — the Nissan Z earns strong marks from owners and stands out as a compelling sports car choice. The all-generations owner rating is 4.62/5 across every model year in the data.
Owners consistently praise its classic design, powerful performance, and thrilling driving experience. The Z also gets credit for its heritage-inspired styling and its clear sports-car character, while some shoppers note that the ride can feel harsh on rough roads and that cabin space is limited.
Expert reviews rate the 2023 and 2024 models among the highest across all years.
The main trade-offs are the choppy ride, the steering feel, and the older-feeling technology in some versions.
34.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
Are Nissan Z models reliable?
Owners consistently describe the Nissan Z as a car with strong performance, classic styling, and a rewarding driving experience. Expert commentary also points to its appealing heritage, powerful engine, and overall enthusiast appeal.
- Owners rate the Nissan Z between 4.5 and 5.0 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.
For used buyers, long-term ownership risk looks manageable if you prioritize a well-kept example and stay on top of routine maintenance.
What should I look for when buying a used Nissan Z?
Across all model years, accident-free inventory is excellent at 94.5% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
| Model Year | Accident-Free % |
|---|---|
| 2026 | 96.9% |
| 2025 | 95.2% |
| 2024 | 94% |
| 2023 | 93% |
Key things to evaluate:
- Safety package: Nissan Safety Shield 360 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
- Infotainment: 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wired Apple CarPlay and wired Android Auto; 9-inch screen with wireless Apple CarPlay, NissanConnect Services with Wi-Fi hotspot access, navigation, and an eight-speaker Bose premium audio system
- Fuel efficiency: Nissan says the twin-turbo V6 requires premium gas and should return between 19 mpg and 22 mpg in combined driving. Our test car had a 20 mpg EPA fuel economy rating, and we observed 21.4 mpg on our Southern California evaluation loop.
Which Nissan Z trim should I buy?
The 2026 Nissan Z offers these trims:
- Sport: The entry point with the 8-inch touchscreen, wired Apple CarPlay, wired Android Auto, and the core Z driving experience.
- Performance: The best-value trim for many shoppers, adding the 9-inch screen, wireless Apple CarPlay, NissanConnect Services with Wi-Fi hotspot access, navigation, an eight-speaker Bose premium audio system, SynchroRev Match, a mechanical limited-slip differential, performance brakes, and 19-inch forged aluminum wheels.
- Heritage Edition: Based on the Performance trim, it adds Midnight Purple paint, bronze 19-inch Rays forged aluminum wheels, a carbon-fiber rear spoiler, retro-inspired Twin Turbo graphics, special floor mats, and unique door kick plates.
- Nismo: The most track-focused version, with 420 horsepower and 384 lb-ft of torque, chassis bracing, revised steering, upgraded brakes, exclusive suspension tuning, wider rear wheels, and high-performance summer tires.
What Nissan Z do most buyers choose?
The Nissan Z years with the most listings are 2024, 2025, and 2023.
| Model Year | Total Listings | Good + Great Deals % |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 316 | 35.1% |
| 2025 | 315 | 35.9% |
| 2023 | 215 | 34.9% |
| 2026 | 130 | 34.6% |
| 2027 | 29 | 31% |
Higher-listing years tend to draw more shoppers because they usually offer more inventory to compare, which can make it easier to find the right color, trim, and price. They also tend to be the most visible choices in the used market, so they often become the default starting point for buyers.
What is the Nissan Z's resale value?
| Model Year | Current Avg. Price | Year-Over-Year Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | $42,521 | −2.45% |
| 2025 | $42,401 | −1.0% |
Prices have moved lower across both model years shown here, which is good news if you're shopping used. The changes are relatively small, so the market looks stable rather than volatile. That also means you can focus more on condition, mileage, and trim choice instead of waiting for a dramatic price swing.
The 2025 and 2024 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
Is the Nissan Z safe?
- 2026: 5/10
- 2024: 6/10
- 2023: 7/10
Nissan Safety Shield 360 includes 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.
For the safest used buy, the 2023 model posts the highest confirmed score of 7/10.
Should I buy a used Nissan Z now or wait for the next model?
Buy now if:
- Price trend: The 2025 model is at −1.0% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −2.45%.
- Deal availability: The 2025 model has 35.9% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 35.1%.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings at a current average price of $42,521. The Nissan Z offers a classic rear-wheel-drive sports-car character with strong heritage appeal and a focused, enthusiast-friendly personality.
Consider waiting if:
- Powertrain/efficiency: The twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 produces 400 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque, and Nissan says it should return between 19 mpg and 22 mpg in combined driving.
- Tech: The 9-inch screen adds wireless Apple CarPlay, NissanConnect Services with Wi-Fi hotspot access, navigation, and an eight-speaker Bose premium audio system.
- Safety: The latest model adds 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 destination.
If you're buying used today, the 2024 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.

I love the car but the paint chips easily and it should be easier to pause media. Also just a few more inches of space will allow tall people to get in

Nissan Z test drive
overall
The 2026 Nissan Z deserves more love and respect than it typically gets.
Revived in 2023, the Nissan Z is essentially an update of the sixth-generation model, sold from 2009 to 2020. It remains a two-seat coupe with a liftback design, a six-cylinder engine, and rear-wheel drive (RWD)—a recipe that dates back to the first-generation 1970 Datsun 240Z. Of course, the 2026 Z is much more powerful and technologically advanced than its forebears, and slots into a segment of the market with no direct competition.
Verdict: Being based on the previous-generation 370Z can make it seem out-of-date, but we like the 2026 Nissan Z. That’s especially true of the new Heritage Edition, which wears a compelling paint color, bronze wheels, and retro graphics and badges. Nevertheless, the car needs a tech update and better steering ASAP.
