We’ve been waiting for this for . After what feels like years, — a chance to explore, to play around, to share our perfect designs with our peers. That’s right, that thing we’ve all been holding our breath for has arrived: The .

The new Z may lack a distinguishing number, forcing us all to call it “the New Z” until time spent on the market turns it simply into “the Z,” but it does have options. , interior specs, wings and splitters and floor mats oh my. Let’s take a trip through the configurator and see what we can come up with.

To start, I’m picking . The biggest appeal of the upgrade Performance line, for me, is the limited-slip differential, but I’d rather give to solve that that than fork out $10,000 at a dealer. True, by skipping the Performance trim, I miss out on some more upgrades, including the option to choose the incredible blue leather interior, but I can’t pair that with the yellow exterior anyway. C’mon, Nissan.

I know, I know, configuring my Z in is basic. I considered the absolutely gorgeous maroon or the two-tone blue and black, but I had to go with my heart. Yellow cars rule, so I’m going with yellow. Plus, that maroon is downright classy — too nice for a 400 horsepower, rear-drive hoon machine.

The maroon exterior and blue interior, for reference. You can’t get these together either, which is a crime against me persnoally.

I spec’d the front lip and rear ducktail spoiler too. You can’t go sliding around in your boosted sports car without aero bits designed to work when you’re aimed straight-ahead. That’s just the rule.

The interior, being a base model, is pretty bare-bones. I eyed the optional built-in dashcam and weatherproof mats, but I’d rather turn to the aftermarket for those too. I’m picky.

You’ve seen my Z, but there are plenty of options I omitted — and probably some I overlooked. Hit up , and post your perfect Z below for all to see.

At $18,500, Could You T-Top This 1982 Datsun 280ZX?
At $18,500, Could You T-Top This 1982 Datsun 280ZX?
The X in today’s 280ZX stands for X-sports car, as the model is more a GT than a corner crusher like its immediate predecessor. Some people do like their cars to be a bit softer, but will this classic coupe’s price put you between a rock and a hard place?...

The 2018 Volvo XC40 Is Extremely Elegant And A Little Annoying
The looks cool as a cucumber in the back of a fridge, inside and out. But after putting about 800 miles on one and living with it for a week, I have to say I found this car frustrating in a lot of little ways. My good friend and colleague...

The 2018 Kia Stinger GT Versus Other Good Cars You Could Get For $45,000
I just spent a week abusing the –a $45,000 365-horsepower rear-wheel drive sport sedan made by a company that was largely invisible to driving enthusiasts 10 years ago. Suddenly Kia makes a legitimate practical performance car, and we all want to know how it compares to logical and maybe some...

At $3,700, Could This 2001 Toyota MR2 Spyder Be Your Rough Rider?
Toyota MR2 Spider prices are all over the map, but you don’t usually have a pin drop on one that’s as rough as today’s candidate. Could its low price make it worth investing in a little polish? Based solely on the joyous comments on yesterday’s you’d think we had just...

At $4,000, Could This 1992 Mercedes 300TE Be Your Long Term Longroof?
At $4,000, Could This 1992 Mercedes 300TE Be Your Long Term Longroof?
Mercedes is a fine exemplar of the phrase ‘they don’t build ‘em like they used to.’ Today’s 300TE is an example of the standard that’s no longer being met. Could its price build on that? Man, people are all about the ‘80s these days, what with Radwood fever sweeping the...
