Next Gen Z will likely have smaller engine.

First time poster, long time browser. Interesting article on motortrend.com. States the next Z and it's engine will likely be smaller. Also the Silvia may be returning.

if it gets any smaller I won't fit :/

azn370z · 04-10-2012, 10:22 PM

I would really like something the size of the cayman. The cayman and 911 looks so much leaner and not as bloated as the z. I would also like a much smaller gtr.

Boo. I really had my heart set on a 400Z.

Z34 Nismo becomes instant collectible as most powerful Z made in history of Z cars. Love it!

Z goes down market to fight BRZ.

Ugh. Make the car smaller/lighter but please don't downsize the engine!

Rui Z · 04-10-2012, 11:04 PM

Now I'm rootin harder for the FRS BRz to succeed

brucelidat · 04-10-2012, 11:05 PM

smaller boosted engine would be great along with a lighter car. High 300 hp range and better mileage along with a lighter car would make me seriously consider trading in for it as long as its new iteration is as sexy as the current one.
