2010 Nissan 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition — US
Explore the 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition — US: history, verified identity, specification references, rarity evidence and real credited photos.
The US 2010 Nissan 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition combined 40th Graphite paint, a red cabin and the Touring grade with Sport Package equipment. Nissan states a one-thousand-unit limit for this edition. Its manual-only configuration and defined US identity distinguish it from Japan's Fairlady Z anniversary offer, which used a different sales boundary and included an automatic. The two belong to the same celebration but should never share one production total.
A particular American anniversary package
Nissan's anniversary retrospective identifies the 2010 370Z edition as a Touring-based model with manual transmission and Sport Package. That combination defines the profile more precisely than a generic fortieth-anniversary badge. It also prevents ordinary 2010 Z34s from being counted as anniversary examples. Model year, market and factory package documentation remain important even when a surviving car has acquired the correct wheels or a similar interior.

Sport Package foundations
Nissan lists front and rear spoilers, Sport Brakes, nineteen-inch RAYS forged wheels, a viscous limited-slip differential and SynchroRev Match among the package's equipment. These are meaningful features of the base configuration rather than claims of a separate anniversary engine tune. Some also appear on other Z34s, so their presence alone cannot authenticate the special edition. The original configuration record is the connection between the equipment list and an individual vehicle.
Graphite outside, red inside
The manufacturer retrospective names the finish 40th Graphite and describes red brake calipers, anniversary badging and a red leather interior. It also identifies debossed anniversary seatback logos, leather door inserts and red stitching on the steering wheel. These details form a coherent presentation, but they are not all permanent or impossible to reproduce. Document original paint and trim codes separately from the condition of replacement seats or repaired exterior panels.

Commemorative objects and the allocation
Nissan says each car came with a commemorative plaque and a premium satin cover. Such objects can support a well-documented vehicle file, but they should not be treated as standalone proof when detached from the car's records. The stated one-thousand-unit limit belongs to the US edition represented here. It does not establish an extra thousand cars for every market using a similar anniversary name, nor a present-day survivor census.
Nissan: separate Japanese anniversary announcement
Keep the Japanese edition distinct
Japan's original announcement describes a Version ST-based Fairlady Z offered for one year, with six-speed manual or seven-speed automatic transmission and several colours. That is a different boundary from this US manual Graphite package. A sensible identification file records original market, grade and anniversary equipment first, then follows later importation and modifications. Moving a US car overseas does not turn it into an additional Japanese-market anniversary example.
