In the latest episode of Top Gear, Mr. Clarkson drove the all new BMW Z4 and Nissan 370Z. Both cars are fresh on the market and offer very sporty ride.
370Z uses a 3.7-liter V6 that packs 332 hp, Z4 uses a 3.0-liter twin turbo that packs 302 hp.
The two are not really comparable, as one is a classic coupe and the other is a luxury hard top convertible. It would have been a better comparison if they had used a 370Z Roadster. Real test/competitor for the new Z4 is the next-generation SLK that is likely due next year.
Take a look at the video below to see what Mr. Clarkson has to say about the two and how fast both “Z’s” lap the Top Gear test track.
