More details on the 2009 370Z

Inside Line revealed today more details on the 2009 370Z that will make its world debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show next month. Although the the 370Z will be built on the Nissan’s FM platform (same as the 350Z,) the wheelbase may be shortened by as much as five inches for better handling. Other improvements include wider rear fenders and an improved interior.

It will be powered by the 3.7-liter version of the Nissan VQ engine just like the G37 coupe and sedan. The engine delivers 330 hp and 270 pound-feet of torque.

Nissan will reveal first official images of the car on October 29, followed by technical information on November 11.
