Next Generation Z?

I saw this article while I was researching the Z's before I bought mine. I have no idea if it is true, but I know it's NOT what I want!

There are rumors around the net on the same subject, and for the Infiniti line as well. However, it surely does not demonstrate any confidence in Nissan by Nissan itself that they cannot design for both emissions and performance if all this comes true. Scary.

If any of that is true then our generation may just hold it's value. I personally don't like the idea of being down graded to a smaller sized engine. The hybrid is a nice idea if they can still put out 350+ horsepower on the tap.
