Look I'm excited they are making a new Z it's a long time coming I just have reservations about price and reliability (lots of people with blown vr30 motors). The other thing I am worried about is they make it too technology advanced and cripple the car. I drove a q60 and it absolutely sucks there is no soul in that car. The drive by wire, terrible automatic (thank goodness this will have a manual) and awful exhaust along with terrible soft boring suspension.
Should be interesting to see where they mark this price wise. I'm excited for a new Z, but curious as to how it will all come together. The Z platform is known for having a true driver/car connection, and a great driving experience. Hopefully its not muted in that sense like you were saying about the q60.
