Interesting news. I'll reserve my Love and Hate opinion once the new Z comes out.
For now I am happy as IMO still no car in the market has matched the Z in terms of value and performance. Its not a perfect/refined sports car but with its price range it satisfy my urge for speed and performance while I still dream of a supercar. Maybe I won't even want one anymore. |

But Infiniti does have the Etherea Concept. Which is Infiniti's first FWD 245hp 2.5litre supercharged inline 4 destined to be in Infiniti's smallest 4 door car. Supposedly, this car is supposed to be sporty and run with a CVT. Infiniti Etherea Concept - Future Vehicles - Infiniti Now Notice the key word in the Title name of this Concept ETHERea Doesn't "ether" put you to sleep? I'm sleepy just talking about this car. |
Personally I could care less as I am happy with my Z :cool:

im happy with what nissan did with the Q50. they are going in a good direction. not worried because if the next Z is trash ill get a used GTR. Especially if the Z will be the same price as a used GTR in two years.

My Z isn't going anywhere... So i'm not worried in that way. The Z34 is a keeper. But I will have it paid by the end of this year. So by the year after I will be looking for another sports car.
I really WANT TO add another Z!!! but if not????? I would love a used GTR but the estimate in maintenance costs cost thousands a year. The way i drive, I'd go through tires and Brake pads too often, not to mention basic costs. Besides $60k for something used? I thought about it deeply... Can't do it. I'm interested in what the next gen camaro will offer or the new corvette. The next mustang looks very promising but not sure about owning a mustang. It would have to be "The Shyt" to make the transition. I will probably trade the Altima I bought my wife and upgrade her to a Q50. But the next car for me is in question. |
FWD? Noooo :bowrofl:

Non RWD platforms don't deserve to carry the Z, Silvia or Skyline name... Sounds like it make a great, Sentra/Altima coupe like someone mentioned. Or even designate a new name and generation of sports car. AWD/FWD, it won't be a BRZ direct competitor... It wont sell to the same type of enthsiast. But I'd rather the Turbo AWD than the N/A RWD. The infinit, looks nice but looks like its more luxury than sport. Most infiniti concepts are electric... In Nissan... The Altima sportiness is dumbed down in style though it gained .4 second accelration. Sentra has no SE-R, looks kinda dull and lost 20hp, The pathfinder is the most laughable vehicle. Remember when a pathfinder was an Off road vehicle? |
Looks are a big factor for me, even if the new Z is faster but lets say its like futuristic butt ugly that would really really suck compared to the design right now. I dont see how they are gonna top it! some even the prefer the 370z looks over a GTR that says alot... out.
all i know is im glad im leasing my Z, i can either hop into the new one or buy this one out. I dont think ill be able to afford and M3 or Z06 by 2015... |
been sayin this for a bit i have.
New car slotted below Z. z moved up market. gtr bumps up slightly too. |
