Yeah that is sad... but important statistical details are being filtered out.

Well, first off, most of the statistics are useless without a detailed understanding of the included and excluded information, as you mention. The media is excellent at finding numbers that meet their needs and using them to promote false narratives.

If the experts are correct and we don't have a vaccine before then, we could be looking at 2/3 of the population with some form of covid before humans overcome the virus (i.e. presence of antibodies in enough of the population). That's like 200M+ people in the US alone and 4+ BILLION people in the world (although I'm guessing we'll never see case numbers like that due to lack of testing). If the mortality rate reaches 1% at those numbers, that's over 2M people in the US that'll die and 40M in the world :eekdance:

JARblue 05-28-2020 08:07 AM

For the record, I don't think it will get that bad. I'm guessing a vaccine will be found before then.

FPenvy 05-28-2020 08:21 AM

The flat rear end is my only concern. Not sure how it'll look. Time to sell my car for the whole 5k it's worth and get this thing I guess.... after 5 years of it being out, buying used, and having Nissan work out all the issues the first 2 model years will inevitably have.

What's new? The body kit? It's a Z34 with a Q engine. Both are old news. Guys have been doing this in their garage for years now. Isn't there even a kit available now for fitting a VR30TT in a Z34?

Is the chassis different? I don't think Nissan is calling it a Z35 even though everyone is saying next generation. Sounds like the 300Z major overhaul mid-model.

i dont care what they call it and the current Z chassis is fine if they update some stuff on it stiffen it up etc...

i like the way my current Z feels and it's an 09 lol

toss big boy power, new body, new tech, new suspension, and you son of a bitch i'm in lol

already messaged people if they can take a down payment yet. also, fully 100% leaving GTR stock until i see how much the new Z is gonna hurt me.

FPenvy 05-28-2020 08:52 AM

the giant gap in all the cars at the end of the ad makes me like the open spot for another godzilla soon too but i wont get that til probably the 3-4 year update like when the 2012 GTR got all the good updates like TCM update, more power, nicer front bumper/wheels, etc...

FPenvy 05-28-2020 08:53 AM

also, the owner emailed me today and that Z35 forum we had he renamed.

anyone new since it's been like 5 years now? her's the new name.

http://www.the370z.com/****************************

AK cant yell at me for advertising a new forum on here since he hasnt been on in 5 years himself lol

Fair enough. Who gives a fùck what it's called if it comes to the table ready to go :driving:

Power: :tup: (:rock:)
Body: :eekdance: (I'm concerned with some lines but hopeful)
Tech: :rolleyes: (IDGAF but I know many do)
Suspension: :confused: (I haven't heard a thing about the suspension)

and yea no word at all on the suspension or anything along those lines.

I love the hatch lines. I want to see the rear bumper lines though. And front bumper. Hope it doesn't have a big gaping mouth up front with projecting over/underbite from a splitter etc.

The tech in cars needs to stop being proprietary bs that is worthless after a few years. Just use the Apple Play and equivalent Android connections to use mobile apps that actually get updated occasionally :tup:

Let's be real, we'll end up replacing about a third of the car anyways so...

But it would be nice to have a tech system that isn't fancy pants proprietary trashbag.

FPenvy 05-28-2020 09:20 AM

heres the real question.....will it be a 2021 because that then means it'll be released this fall.

i assume it has to be a 2022 and will drop next year.

they said they plan to launch 12 new models in the next 18 months.

Leingod 05-28-2020 09:21 AM

I still wonder if a day will come when you can rib out the factory nav and NOT have it break a ton of other stuff in the car.

We had to do PT in MOPP4 with all our kit in the sand, full mags, full canteens etc. With our weapons. I was the unlucky sob carrying the 203. :mad: The HQ squad had to run with the 50 cal - receiver, barrels and tripod, more like a slow shuffle after a few minutes.
