Released on July 2002 in Japan at reorganized Nissan Japanese dealerships called Nissan Blue Stage, and Augin the U.S., the 350Z coupé was available in 5 trim packages: '350Z' (Base), 'Enthusiast', 'Performance', 'Touring', and 'Track' editions. The 350Z's interior does not have a conventional glove box, but has storage compartments located behind and between the two seats. Touring models are equipped with the Bose sound system get a six CD changer and 8-inch Bose subwoofer mounted behind the driver's seat. Additional gauges are mounted in a center triple gauge cluster (similar to the 240Z/260Z/280Z). The main gauge pod is mounted directly to the steering column allowing its movement to coincide with steering wheel adjustments. The Interior design has brushed aluminum accents.
External design highlights include: sloping fastback style arched roof line, unique brushed aluminum door handles, high waistline, and bulging fenders that are pushed out to the corners of the vehicle. The vehicle has the long-hood short-deck design common to the Z-Car family. This program was inspired by the successful reception to the 1998 240Z concept model. The 350Z is a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive, two-door, two-seat sports car designed by Ajay Panchal of Nissan Design America in San Diego, California in 2000. Automotive critics described "it would be cool but get a new model." This design served the intended purpose of creating interest, in the public and the corporation, for a new Z car. The designers used an original 240Z to provide inspiration and the concept was created in only 12 weeks. It was thought a less than worthy successor to the line. It was fully functional car with its 2.4 L 4-cylinder KA24DE engine from the Nissan Altima producing 200 bhp (149 kW) and 180 lb⋅ft (244 N⋅m) of torque, and not the Z-car's traditional 6-cylinder engine. In a reference to the original, it was a bright orange two-seater with swept-back styling. The concept was based primarily on a design sketch by Manny Baker of Nissan's California design studio. Nissan unveiled the 240Z concept car at the 1999 North American International Auto Show, then later at the Los Angeles Auto Expo. The 240Z Concept displayed in the same "Lemans Sunset" color seen on the 350Z The car then underwent a minor redesign and was eventually assigned the 3.5 L VQ35DE engine, hence becoming known as the 350Z. The Z Concept was unveiled in Detroit Motor Show two years later, which was similar in body shape but with a new front end. During a press conference in February 2000, president Carlos Ghosn announced plans to produce the car as he felt the new model would help to assist the company's recovery. Nissan was unhappy with the first design as they felt the original 200 bhp (149 kW 203 PS) 2.4 L KA24DE engine that was going to be assigned made the car feel underpowered, they also felt the car was considered too "retro" or too "backward" resembling a futuristic 240Z hence, a redesign was commissioned. The 240Z concept was produced for the Detroit Motor Show during the following August and September. The design, representing a modern vision of the 240Z, did not please the original 240Z designer Yoshihiko Matsuo, who compared it to the Bluebird and Leopard. Yutaka Katayama, regarded as the "Father of the Z" unveiled the Z concept sketch to the public when he received a motor industry award.
