It's been a couple of months since Nissan first announced a special 40th anniversary model (http://www.autoblog.com/2009/10/15/nissan-370z-40th-anniversary-edition-announced/) of its svelte 370Z (http://www.autoblog.com/model/370z), and, following a batch of spy shots confirming the car's arrival, we're about to get our first up-close-and-personal look at the upcoming Chicago Auto Show (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/chicagoautoshow). But Nissan (http://www.autoblog.com/make/nissan) isn't about to let American customers have all the fun, so it's releasing a similar special edition for the European market.

Like its American counterpart, the Europe's 370Z Black Edition celebrates the 40th anniversary of the Nissan Z, and packs most of the same features that distinguish its Yankee brother. That means darkened 19-inch Rays wheels, red brake calipers, red leather interior with a red-stitched steering wheel, special badges and the like. In fact, the only thing that seems different, apart from the "Black Edition" moniker, is the availability of a second exterior color: while the American version can only be had in "quartz" dark grey, the European Black edition can also be had in - you guessed it - black. It also comes with the full infotainment package

The 370 examples will begin distribution in April - a month after the Geneva Motor Show (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/genevamotorshow/) where it's set to debut - with a £33,645 (~$53k) price tag in the UK. That's over £5k above stock, but then the Black edition comes packed full of optional equipment. Full details in the press release after the jump and high-res photos in the gallery below.

I'd rather get the nismo z in white. Does look ok though

does not look like the 'Magnetic Black' of the current usdm z34.
(although it's hard to tell with those photos).

I'm usually not a fan of black paint, but this I like a lot.
