Would you buy a 250Z?

soCo · 05-08-2010, 03:21 PM

I voted no in the slightest, but i hit the wrong button. It really depends on all the specs.

ZKindaGuy · 05-08-2010, 03:33 PM

No because I don't subscribe to all the "green"

. In fact if Nissan ever does this to the Z I will sell the Z and never buy another Nissan again. I had to go through this environmental

for 30 years starting in the 70's. I sure as hell am NOT going to be forced into it again for a second time in my life.

there is a rumor going around that the g25 which actually be the lead in for the new nissan s series replacement. think 250sx

JACKPAC · 05-08-2010, 04:47 PM

I would look at a 2.5l turbo (either I4 or V6), or better yet I5 ala audi TT-RS!

susu · 05-08-2010, 05:18 PM

Ha Ha , Why do we buy the Z?. For me its the power and sportiness. If I wanted a smaller engine I would have gone for a miata or the S2000. Besides I feel it will cheapen the Z name if they are going to call it a Z. By all means go for a G25 just like their smaller CUVs looking like a mini Murano.

It wouldn't be a Z if made. Not even the slightest bit. No replacement for displacement.

Nissan puts a engine making all of 190 horsepower in a Z, I'll go buy a Mustang

As some people here have already said, if this 2.5 L was along the same concept as an MX5 then yes, cause the performance would be good from lighter weight that would benefit performance, handling and braking.

G Fo12ce · 05-09-2010, 06:18 PM

If that read VQ25DET(T) I'd be all for it.

wishihadnav · 05-09-2010, 07:31 PM

250z?...hell 2 da no!..haha

kailua · 05-08-2010, 08:57 PM

If they brought back a rwd 250sx I would totally buy it. They can keep the Z as the flagship below the gtr but there is a huge gap for cheap sporty category.

If the pricing is around $23-27K then it could compete with the likes of the speed3, gti and genesis.

Cheap fun RWD car? Yup, I'd buy that in a heart beat too.

When my big heavy RWD car dies I'd like to replace it with something small and fun, so something like that would be on the list.

I wouldn't buy a Z with a 2.5, but the G25 looks interesting. If it were light and came in a coupe version (unfortunately sedan only) I think it might be a cool replacement for my DD

FuszNissan · 05-08-2010, 10:49 PM

Just buy an altima coupe

Nope. No more FWD vehicles for me.
