Video: Top Gear – BMW Z4 vs Nissan 370Z
The Top Gear guys are at it again, they are testing out the new Z4 and the new 370Z. Jeremy Clarkson hated the previous Z4 so it makes you wonder what he thinks of this one. He has also always referred to the 350Z as a “Datsun”. On the old 350Z he complained that “how many times have you gone for 3rd and missed 5th?”
Well here he is driving two cars which he didn’t like the previous models of, lets see what he thinks now! Read more

The new 2009 Nissan Frontier brings back some of that old Nissan truck appeal, only this time it offers a lot more.
We tested the new 2009 Nissan Frontier 4×2 Crew Cab LE with the long wheelbase. Our test vehicle came with a 4.0-liter V6 that pumps out a steady 261 horse power and 281 ft-lbs of torque, which is standard on all Frontier crew cabs. The ample portion of power gives this truck an edge when it comes to light to medium hauling or towing. The towing capacity, at 6300 lbs., is plenty coming from a compact truck.

Nissan’s newest Altima has moved onto the big league with its latest design, becoming one of Nissan’s work-horse vehicles with a long consistent history.
At a reasonable distance, it is hard to differentiate the new Nissan Altima from its “big sister”, the Nissan Maxima. Although they share many components, the Altima is still in a different class that could ultimately save you money while providing some of the same styling that makes the Nissan family such a remarkable brand.

The all-new 2009 Nissan Cube is not really all-new, but is the third-generation. Nissan introduced the original Cube, an aptly named box-on-wheels, to minor consumer interest.
Maybe the Cube was ahead of its time, even for the hip, young Japanese.
