how many people think the Z34 is the last Z for a long while?

If they stop making the 370Z, then it's not really good for us current 370Z owners. It's going to hurt aftermarket product availability. By this I mean that fewer companies will be developing/putting out fewer new aftermarket products for our car, which is definitely not good. I think the Z will stay alive though, but Nissan does need to make some big changes soon.

We went from 1995 when the last 300ZX was sold in the US until 2003 with the introduction of the 350Z which transformed the market at that time.

I think Nissan needs to take some time off and come out with a competitive Z that can go head to head with the current market out there.

A V6 is no going to cut it anymore unless they put a Turbo or SC.

My $0.02.

It was 1996 when the 300ZX was last sold, and it was sold in Japan until 1999/2000. Not sure about other countries though.

Would a retuned version of the gtr engine be a viable choice for the next z? Mercedes does this all the time with their 6.2 Amg engine.

The point is that here in the US we went without a new Gen Z for 7 to 8 years.

The used market was saturated with NA 280zx's
