The black or white Nissan 370Z GT Edition
Nissan has churned out a limited edition 370Z – the Nissan 370Z GT Edition – evoking Nissan’s GT Racing with a focus on high speed handling.

In terms of toys, Nissan has thrown in the Premium Connect SatNav system, which also incorporates a rear-view camera – tyre pressure monitoring and a new ‘Snow’ mode on the seven-speed auto ‘box
Nothing to get too excited about, but it’s a decent package on an already decent car. You can order a 370Z GT Edition now at £35,000 with first deliveries due in June.
