As the future of the Tokyo Motor Show remains questionable, Nissan has confirmed with InsideLine that it will unveil the Nissan 370Z Roadster at the 2009 New York Auto Show in April.

Don’t expect a hard-top convertible like the Infiniti G37 Convertible but you can definitely expect the same 3.7L VQ37VHR engine with VVEL that makes 332-hp with a maximum torque of 270 lb-ft.

The Nissan 370Z Roadster will arrive in showrooms just in time for the summer. Pricing will be announced closer to launch.

Recently InsideLine was lucky enough to test drive the new 2009 Nissan 370Z that we won’t get to see until the 2008 LA Auto Show. Now the insiders at Edmunds are providing the first look at the 2010 Nissan 370Z Roadster.

At first we thought these were real spy shots but upon closer inspection (or more like paying attention to InsideLine’s fine print) we learned that these are just photo illustrations as to what the next-generation 370Z Roadster will look like.

Power for the Nissan 370Z Roadster will also come from the 3.7L engine from the G37 coupe. It will make 330-hp with a maximum torque of 270 lb-ft of torque. Power will be transferred to the wheels from a 7-speed automatic transmission with an available 6-speed manual.

According to InsideLine the 2010 Nissan 370Z will be unveiled at the 2009 New York Auto Show.
