Nissan 370Z Forum - The370z Useless Thread Part IV

I see the Z going the way of the Toyabru. Smaller engine. I think with both the Toyota, Subaru, and turbo 4 genesis coup that market is getting tight. And the Z doesn't have back seats.

What is the Z's identity? A poorman's Porsche or an expensive toyubru?

smaller engine yes, but not 4cyl, and possibly turbo again... :tup:

Both? Might be part of the problem... It's underpowered for it's competition, or it's overly expensive for it's competition...

Bigger question would be the Name... If they go smaller displacement, can't call it a 300Z again... So what do they name it?? :confused:

they could call it a 300Z as there was never a 300z... only a ZX..

:iagree: or bring the fairlady name here?

True... I guess that would be easier then it doesn't matter what platform they drop into it...

I see them dropping the number if the engine goes smaller. I also see them continuing to try to be the poor mans porsche.
