Mark your calendars for April 18, racers, for Ivory Tower's The Crew Motorfest is finally arriving on Steam, seven months after the initial release. But aside from the game being on everyone's favorite digital storefront, let's see what's happening with the Japanese Street Car craze hitting Motorfest this week.
As usual, The Crew Motorfest players get discounted bundles in the shop every week. Nissan fans won't want to miss what's on offer.
The "Blackpanthaa Tagteam Stereoline Bundle" has two awesome rides to showcase: the 2023 Nissan Z (Street Car) and the classic 2004 Nissan 350Z Roadster (Street Car). The bundle is down 20% at 313,599 Bucks or 44,799 Crew Credits from 392,000 Bucks and 56,000 CC.
The RWD Nissan Z has a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 powerplant that delivers 395 hp or 400 ps with 350 lb-ft or 475 Nm of torque. For those interested, the Sport version starts at $42,310, the Performance model from $52,310, and the automatic transmission-only Nismo's MSRP is $65,090. The latter outputs 20 more horsepower and 34 more lb-ft of torque.
Autoevolution tested out the Nissan Z last January and concluded that because it's a two-seat sports car, it's best suited for the open road, not everyday grocery shopping.
While it has exceptional power, timeless good looks, a 6-speed manual gearbox option, comfortable seats, and a high-quality interior, it still has some drawbacks like no convertible body style, wind and tire noises can be annoying at high speeds, the ride can be harsh, the manual is stubborn at times, and there's a glare from the flat hood surface.
No car is perfect, but the most important is that "the Z has the looks, performance, and pricing that are true to the spirit of the original 240Z."

The other half from the bundle, the 2004 Nissan 350Z, delivers 276 horsepower, has a top speed of 155 mph, and can get from 0 to 60 in 6.3 seconds.
Oh, but there's one more thing. You'll get the 1994 Nissan 300 ZX (Z32) Kaido-ou Street Car as a reward if you complete the Main Stage. The 300 ZX came with a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 that delivered 279 hp or 283 ps with 277 lb-ft (376 Nm) of torque. It had a top speed of 155 mph or 249 kph and reached 62 mph or 100 kph in 5.9 seconds.
Lastly, the Custom Bundle contains the 1997 Mitsubishi FTO Version R Nebula Edition, with JDM Toxic Underglow, Poisoned Electricity Nitro, and Pink Storm Smoke.
It's now 30% off and costs 134,330 Crew Credits, down from 191,900 CC. Sadly, you'll have to exchange real-life money to buy this type of currency, which I never encourage.
This is it for this week, aside from the Ubisoft Forward showcase announcement taking place on June 10, and an upcoming Star Wars Outlaws story trailer on April 9.
Codrin just loves American classics, from the 1940s and ‘50s, all the way to the muscle cars of the '60s and '70s. In his perfect world, we'll still see Hudsons and Road Runners roaming the streets for years to come (even in EV form, if that's what it takes to keep the aesthetic alive). Full profile
