If you want to buy yourself the 370Z you should know that the six-speed manual version costs Â£31,650 ($52,000 USD) while the automatic one will set you back no less than Â£33,050 ($54,000 USD).

The Honda FC Sport Concept

This year Honda has unveiled something very interesting at the LA Auto Show: the FC Sport. It’s a three-passenger sports car concept that is built on the Honda V Flow fuel cell tech. Made out of lightweight materials, with an improved aerodynamics and also a low center of gravity, you can’t fail, or so we hope and Honda hopes also.

What we have seen so far from this little “buggy” is very nice, with great shapes and angles, inspired from Formula 1. No specs were released until now, but as soon as we will hear of any, you will be the first to know. Until then, take a look at one of the pictures of the FC Sport.

The new Nissan Cube

Nissan just threw us a some photos of their Cube, includind some with the US-Spec version that will be at the LA Auto Show. The JDM Cubes have inside a 107-hp or 109 lb-ft 1.5L four-cylinder roller with a CVT transmission. There will be two versions, one with front or four-wheel drive.
Inside of the cockpit, so to say, things will look good also, with the return of the bench seats and a mix of materials for more comfort.
If the Cube will be as fine as the JDM we will be in for a new favorite buggy from Nissan.

We give you the 2009 Nissan 370Z

Like and angel of darkness Nissan’s new 2009 370Z sports coupe was unveiled by the boys and girls from Inside Line with a rain of ashes. Nothing new from what have already seen in the pictures on the design. But the pictures have no meaning when it comes to the real-life feel of the car.
The Z34 was also on display and it caught eyes because of the more space for stuff in the trunk. Good news for the ladies i think. we didn’t get too many tech questions answered on the spot, but one thing we were told for sure is that the downshift rev-match option will be on the sport models of the Z and will work through feedback on clutch engagement, brake pedal position, rpm, throttle position and gear selection. Say tuned for more on this baby.

Nissan 370Z convertible “spy shots”

It seems that nowadays spy shots are not what they used to be back in the day. Photographers are not hung up in trees, wearing camo paint all over their faces, waiting for a glimpse of a car to be tested. Now car manufacturers almost call in photographers at the testing site. But enough of this, today we will be talking about some â€žspy shotsâ€ of the all new Nissan 370Z convertible.

But a birdy whispered into our ears that the pictures that flow arround the internet are not the real deal, they are actually make-overs, so we would avoid naming that graphics manipulation software we all know. But we do know for sure that the new Z will have a power-folding soft-top, to drop the price tag and the weight and a new 3.7 liter V6 under the hood. As for other good news, we heard that both 6-speed manual and 7-speed automatic gearboxes will be available since the car walks out of the factories and into the dealers, starting next year after it will be first shown to us un wheels and screws at the New York Auto Show.
