A little birdy has told me that the 390Z might be released in 2013. Does anyone know if thats true? Will it be at the start or end of 2013? Is it worth waiting for, or should I buy the Z now?

Thanks

Here are a list of birdies.

1. The 2011 year will introduce a turbo model
2. The 2012 year will introduce a hybrid model
3. They will make a mercedes based engine that will be smaller with forced induction on the new Z.
4. The new Z will be completely electric.
5. The next generation will bring back the ZX.

I'm sure some other members can add to the list. Truth be told. Nissan doesn't say sh1t about what's next in there cars unless they are brand new concepts. Everyone thought no changes at all would happen in 12. All of a sudden, the car is out and has an oil cooler. My advice is either buy now or wait a couple of years and hope for the best??? If low sales doesn't kill U.S. importation? That would be rumor number 6.

Unless there is concrete information that the next model year is going to be materially better than what's available now, buy it now and have fun!

That's what I did. I have a 2012 on the way and will hopefully be here next month. Not that I'll be able to/want drive it during winter. At least it'll be pretty to look at in the garage.

You can play the waiting game forever. If/when the next gen car does come out, I'd personally want to avoid the first couple years so they can get the bugs worked out, especially if it has a bunch of new technology. By then, you're at least 2-3 years out. Get the 2012. It's an incredible car, and you can have fun now!

And when you do want to upgrade to the new hotness, trade in.

Just my 0.02.

I vote for rumor number 6...that would make the 370Z more desirable.
