2025 Nissan Z Brings Back My Beloved Bayside Blue
The new Nissan Z is a sharp-looking car, with visual homages to the 240Z and 300ZX that feel targeted at Me Specifically, but it's always felt like it's missing something in the design department. As it turns out, the car was only missing a color — a color that Nissan has finally added to the lineup for 2025. Bayside Blue is back, and its addition makes the Nissan Z a car that I would actually want to own. Bayside Blue is one of those distinctive car colors that's far more recognizable than you might expect. Sure, it may seem like just one of many blues, but this one adorned the vaunted R34 Skyline GT-R, one of the coolest vehicles to grace the roads of this Earth. A bayside blue GT-R is a more interesting sight than any supercar, and a Bayside Blue Z inherits some of that appeal. Not all of it, to be sure, but enough.

Clearly, we need to get one of each next to each other to compare. If you happen to have both on hand, and live in Brooklyn, let me know. I definitely just want to compare the colors, not to hoon the absolute life out of an R34 GT-R. That's not what I'm looking to do at all. You can trust me. Bayside blue isn't live on Nissan's configurator yet, so it's not yet clear how much the color will cost to add to your car. Colors for the current Z range from $895 to $1,695, and the existing two-tone Seiran Blue TriCoat finish sits in the middle at $1,295. Maybe the simplification to one single color, rather than the blacked-out roof of the Seiran Blue, will make Bayside cheaper. Almost certainly not, due to Bayside's heritage, but we can dream.

The 2025 Nissan Z Isn't More Expensive and Adds an Iconic Paint Color
The 2025 prices are the same as last year, making it a bargain compared with the , which costs about $13K more to start. The Z offers three new exterior color options, including a pair of two-tone choices and the iconic Bayside Blue from the R34 Nissan GT-R. The base-model Z still starts at $44,110, with the Performance and NISMO trims starting at $54,110 and $66,890, respectively. While you can no longer order a new GT-R, Nissan will still sell you another sports car, and it's not more expensive than last year's model. Along with pricing details, we've learned the 2025 Nissan Z is now available with a trio of fresh color options, including a truly iconic shade. For 2025, the Z still starts at $44,110. That's a helluva deal compared with its chief rival, the 2025 Toyota GR Supra, which dropped the standard turbo four that previously had a $47,575 initial ask. Now, the GR Supra 3.0 with the 382-hp turbocharged straight-six starts at $57,385. For about $13K less, the entry-level Nissan Z comes with rear-wheel drive and a 400-hp twin-turbo six, not to mention an optional six-speed manual. The Z's mid-tier Performance trim, which starts at $54,110, comes with additional go-fast bits such as a limited-slip rear differential, Bridgestone Potenza S007 high-performance tires, and upgraded brakes. Even the most expensive track-focused Z NISMO, which ups output to 420 horsepower, features a sportier suspension and wears racier bodywork. It starts at $66,890, just like last year. While the Supra has been the mainstream choice and the winner of our comparison test between the two models, it is also now the far more expensive option. Three new exterior color options have also been added to the Z's seven existing hues. Two of them are split-tone options, including one that pairs a Pearl White tri-coat with a Super Black roof, and the other couples a Solid Red shade with the same blacked-out canopy. The third new exterior paint color should excite any longtime Nissan fans, as it isn't a new color at all. The Z can now be ordered in Bayside Blue, one of the most iconic Nissan paint colors of all time, which first appeared on the R34-generation GT-R before also being made available on the most recent R35 GT-R. With the GT-R now cruising the great Bayshore Route in the sky, the not-so-subtle tribute is a nice gesture by Nissan. And between its performance-to-price quotient and new paint options, the latest Z looks more attractive than before.
