Before and if the Z35 is released (big/huge IF), Nissan will push a Z34 with a VR30DTT. I know.....'cause I'm Zoltar. The business reason: SUVs and crossovers. The body style is relevant. Add on modern day tech found in their staple sedans and you have a cheap, updated, and appealing sports car. There is no business reason to introduce a new-bodied 2-door sports coupe. The numbers don't lie.

Truthfully, I'm on board with this idea. Give me a Z34 from the factory with the VR30DDTT with an updated interior (along the lines of Nissan's Platinum Reserve offerings, perhaps?) offered with a manual transmission and I'm perfectly fine with that.

To me, that sounds like a significantly less expensive proposition than building a new platform and such. That way, Z purists get something new while Nissan can offer something more competitive in whichever segment Motor Trend wants to put the Z in.

If it's even possible that it stays within the same price range the Z currently sits, it's a grand slam.

I didn't think about this part, but it's possibly more expensive to allocate resources to VQ37 production... I think the Z is the last car using it.

What other Nissan product rides on the Z platform now? I️ know it had shared with the prior gen Q50/60 but those platforms where updated right? Maybe it would be more cost effective to move the Z over to the updated platform than to keep the old one around for just one car.

It depends, they have to get rid of the parts bin before move to a new frame and form. Doesn't make sense to do so when no one is really complaining about the current form.

Default Z35 Pricing Speculation

I have been looking to get into a 370z or 987.2 Cayman S but now it looks like the next gen z is coming. I want to wait to see pricing and styling before I commit to something. My fear is that the next gen z is going to be dramatically increased in price. My max budget would be 36k or so.

Where do you think the next gen z’s will be priced? I’ve read they may increase the price significantly to put it in a higher class. Could it be north of 40k or 50k like some suspect the RX9 and New Supra to be? I feel like beyond 35k they are alienating a lot of people who chose to buy 370z’s over luxury options. If it goes into that higher range, you have to consider buying BMW, Porsche, Lexus etc instead. I’d personally be priced out.

I know this is speculative, but what do you guys think?

I don’t post here much so I’m missing the punchline. Is this taboo or what am I missing?

I personally am not convinced there will necessarily be a ‘next Z’ (as much as I’d love one). Most of what I’ve seen on line are either rumors, speculation, and wishful thinking from enthusiasts, and non-commital mumbling or downplaying by Nissan, with comments like ‘it’s tough to make a business case for a new sports car’, or some gibberish about the ‘spirit of the Z living on in another form’ (probably meaning some SUV/crossover abomination).

IF there is a new Z, I imagine it would almost certainly be based on the current Infiniti Q60 coupe (the same platform sharing as before), which would most likely mean no manual transmission (a deal killer for me) as the Infiniti doesn’t have one, and pricing likely similar to the Q60.

Just my 2 cents, and certainly worth less than that.
