I feel like a lot of you missed the point that it's primarily being made for China and IS NOT COMING TO THE US!

the article said... small amounts may go to europe and is being considered for the american market. considered doesn't scream it will come to the U.S., but doesn't negate it from coming either.

So in the event of that small possibility? im just saying...

Direct quote from MT
"China is thought to be the car's main market, but Japan and some European countries are destined to receive small batches as well, with the U.S. still under consideration."

Yeah I read the article. Sure there's a small possibility that it could come to the US, but most likely it will not.

One nice thing about Z's is that the quality control was done in Japan.

If I can buy something not made in China, and it costs up to ten times more, I do. Ten times and I draw the line.

Another major difference will be design. The Mini-Z coupe is expected to follow in the Juke's footsteps and employ some unique lines, eschewing the traditional sports car proportions of the Toyobaru. One insider says the Nissan will be close in size to the Honda CR-Z.

Translation: It looks like poo
