What's your next car?

Probably a Porche. But we'll see what Nissan has to offer in 3 years.

Saving for the next gen BMW M3/4 (whatever they decide to call the coupe). I'm on my second Z and I've loved both cars, but all of the rumors point toward Nissan going soft for the next generation and making the Z more entry level. Hope the rumor mill is wrong, but it wouldn't shock me. If anything, I'd want the next Nismo to break 400hp stock and lose some weight.

im hoping nissan will release an all electric Z or a turbo diesel Z, those would be major torque monsters(especially the electric Z)
but if they dont than probably a gtr or something

i can guarantee you that it will be much faster in an 1/8 mile and 1/4 mile than most petrol based cars will be, and it will be easier to mod and maintain because you only have 1 moving part

you should look up white zombie, that car is a 10sec all electric datsun 510

oh and if you think turbo diesel is slow, clearly you havent driven the audi suv with the v12 twin turbo diesel making over 700hp

How do I drive across the country in an electric car ? They take hours to charge... I like going on epic road trips and I cna't do that in an electric sports car so no thank you .

ok, than wouldnt diesel be the better choice if they made a turbo diesel Z?

diesel will give you more torque and it will take you twice as far as petrol ever will

and you act as if you wouldnt stop at a hotel or something on your "epic road trip" which btw you can charge your car up there over night

Oh wow just saw this post. I greatly disagree. The Z isn't made for pure performance, it's made to be a pure sportscar. I don't care if electric would yield better anything. It would dilute the Z name and what it stands for. I believe if it is electric, a lot of the ppl here who said next gen z will change their mind.
Sorry. Back on topic..
