So how long will it be?

flashburn

I haven't a clue yet. I've had the thought of getting a Boss 302 next year, and if I did that I might keep the Z, or depending on it's value trade it in for a Juke. If Nissan announces that the next Z is TT from the factory, that would completely change things, I'd probably trade in the 370 as soon as I could for it.

So, yeah, no clue, could be only a year, or it could be 10+.

Not trying to derail the thread but a factory TT Z is not going to happen.....ever again......unless they stop making the GTR. A TT Z would be a threat to the GTR and Nissan is not going to let that happen.

Back when the TT 300z was out there was no US GTR......now there is....so that rationale wont work now.

daisuke149

actually, they could bump the gtr to 600hp ish next iteration of it

and put the Z car at a smaller engine TT to around 400. wouldnt be a threat.

Also despite the HP, there is alot more to the GTR that the z doesnt have.

Also with mileage/efficiency in mind, a smaller motor with TT would be ideal and alot of companies are going this route.

And yet they sold the 300ZX with the Skyline in Japan and other countries for years....hmmm.
Nissan could easily throw on a TT kit and put it at 400HP-450HP and put the GT-R at 600HP. Still completely different cars, RWD/AWD, Manual/Double clutch auto, 2 seat/2+2 seat, etc.

Will Nissan do it? Probably not since the green movement is winning right now and a V6TT while nice would go against that wonderful green movement the general population is into right now.

Nissan has cut production of the 370Z and they are cutting cost on it by not including an oil-cooler. I doubt they are going to put a TT setup in the car as that would require a lot of re-designing and not only that, but certification with all the govt. pollution agencies and on and on and on. A lot of red tape for a mid-model change-up on a car that they have cut production for. It WOULD be awesome, but it's just not cost effective from Nissan's view I don't think, based on their other actions.

I don't know your situation, so take this at face value based on JUST what you posted above, I think you mean FORCE instead of APPROVE your X paying for the car.

--Pay for your own damn car.--

If there is more to it, feel free to disregard as I don't know the story, I only know what I read above and there was no explanation provided beyond the obvious.

I had mine for 23 months, and I'll probably drive the Jag for about the same amount of time. No car payment FTW.

4r3s

the plan for now is to drive it till the wheels fall off.

Mine's paid for, but I probably won't keep it long. I estimate at less than 2 years.

bleufiend

At least 4-5 years so long as something drastic doesnt change in my life.

I am a cheapskate, so I went crazy and bought my car new, and so I'll probably keep it for 10+ years, as a backup car at least - if I get bored with it. My boys will be driving by then, so I'll want extra cars around. I might add to the garage with something like a GTR, Z06, or Cayman in 5-7 years. So I do have more expensive car aspirations, but I also want a vacation home, so we'll see how well the stock market treats me - and how much the wife earns in her hobby career (paralegal). It's been quite a ride for the last few years, I bought the hell out of stocks after the crash in 08 (when most morons were selling) and doubled my money.

mick

it depends on what the new c7 will look like.
if it looks anything like the stingray concept, i think i am going to trade in my z. Sorry guys

SophiaZ

I plan on keeping my Z til it dies..but with all the crap going on in my life...if the judge don't approve of my soon-to-be ex-husband paying off my car, than I'll have to say goodbye soon

ProfessorDave

That does not sound good. And you just got the blue one!
