Powertrain Options and Availability
Originally, only one engine was available in the 350Z: a 287-horsepower 3.5-liter V6, mated to either a six-speed manual or five-speed automatic transmission. A 300-horsepower engine went into the 35th Anniversary Edition of 2004, and by 2006 was standard in manual-shift models. For 2007, all models have a 306-hp 3.5-liter V6 engine, which replaces a pair of 3.5-liter V6 engines of 287 and 300 hp.

NHTSA Crash-Test Results
Test 203 350Z
Front Impact, Driver 5
Front Impact, Passenger 4
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) tests a vehicle's worthiness in front- and side-impact collisions and rates its resistance to rollovers. Front-impact crash-test numbers indicate the chance of serious injury: 5 = 10% or less; 4 = 10-20%; 3 = 20-35%; 2 = 35-45%; 1 = More than 45%. Side-impact crash-test numbers indicate: 5 = 5% or less; 4 = 6-10%; 3 = 11-20%; 2 = 21-25%; 1 = More than 26%. Rollover resistance numbers indicate the chance for rollover when the vehicle leaves the roadway: 5 = Less than 10%; 4 = 10-20%; 3 = 20-30%; 2 = 30-40%; 1 = More than 40%.
