I think Nissan should start with a more powerful V6 or even better an I6. And then just tune the crap out of it. Think 90's Toyota Supra. This car has very limited appeal, so it doesn't need more engines; it needs refinement. Make it 400 lbs lighter, DSG transmission, higher OD gear, oil cooler, ... so yeah ... pass on a hybrid and diesel - and focus on making the current car better.

Now those are all good ideas. I would definitely go for that.
