The Z32 rules! :D I still think the lines on it are timeless.

I love the Z32 and it's looks could hold up today with a little remodel but I don't think it looks exotic...it was a trendsetter for good looking sport cars in the 90's

I hope if Nissan does the next Z, they base it off the Z32 in the looks dept.

I think the Supra and RX7FD lines are timeless, I don't think the 300's are. But it's all personal opinion. I hope they don't base the next gen Z off Z32 looks.

I completly agree

My feeling is that we're looking at the end of an era. Gas prices are likely to head up massively as the economy recovers. New CAFE regulations are likely to put a nail in the coffin for cars like the 370Z. Increasingly the Green Mafia will demonize those of us who drive sports cars (how IRRESPONSIBLE!!). Look at what happened when the Sierra Club started targeting Hummer?

Future sports cars are likely to be hybrids (see the Porsche 918 concept for example). The performance may be same/better, but the days of a rip-rorting gasoline engine making only 21mpg EPA are numbered.

Enjoy it while you can!

The Sierra Club makes me want to cut down trees and pour oil in rivers.

Tou'che, Friend. :rofl2:

That's probably on it's way. But if we could have a car half the spec of this porsche would be nice for the future. Just have to get someone to learn to modify these cars. I really like everything about it. It's definitly the future. I've included a link for those who've haven't read up on this.

They should give it more power boost by 2011. I mean the mustang got one really quick. Their new 5.0 engine seems really good. It went from 315 to 412hp. Come on nissan, how about a little more juice.

It seems nissan made the Z look similar to the pontiac and lotus! Or is it the other way around?

Let's not forget the R34 looks timeless as well (at least for me it is). One of the reason it looks timeless because, well, it never made it to america, second I never seen one on the streets (I live in Sacramento, CA). I've seen lambos, Ferrari's, vipers, prowlers, delorean, R35, lotus(older models at a car show), but not one single R34. I wish I could own one.

I don't see it happening that fast. Nissan usual drops new motors in the Infiniti line before we see them in "regular" Nissans...for example, we saw the 3.7 in the G37 coupe before it made it to the Z. The 2011 Infiniti M still uses the 330-hp version of the 3.7 V6 (no DI or any other power bumps), so I'd be surprised to see any significant changes for the 2011 Z in the power department.

And you can forget ever seeing a V8 in the Z. That puts the car into a different segment altogether.

I'm not a fan of the Z31 or Z32 bodies at all. They don't feel "Z" to me. I would hope Nissan never goes that direction with the line again.

I'll agree on the Z32, I think that body style pretty much shat upon the Z heritage for sure.

Not real quick, it took years for the Mustang to come back to the 5.0 from the 4.6.

I don't see the Z getting too much more horsepower in the coming models. But a Turbo or SC option with factory warranty would be good! :tup:
