I'll wait for the 2018 model hoping to get the kinks out of the way.

I don't try to fall in love with concepts, since they're rarely as-is when launched, but this particular concept, hate to say it, looks ugly and I'm not sure should be part of the Z family. It really does look like an Aston redone by a high school graphics department. Is that a Nike swoosh I see in the door? Diesel in the US doesn't make sense. And hybrid? Being an apartment-dweller, that doesn't impress me at all.

If you want to discuss sexy concepts, try the new Subaru WRX-cum-Evo concept. Now *that* is smexy.

Although for some reason it reminds me of the GT-R...

i highly doubt that based on the displacement of the engine alone. All I'm saying is that i'll take either as long as it has F.i.

I wouldn't give that rendering any thought on how it will actually look. Looks like it's just wishful thinking from someone at GT channel. Heck, I made my own a few months back, lol.

With the exception of the rear window. I think the rendering looks pretty close to what the design execs described what they are looking to accomplish. I think its a translation of what may come?

We're definitely getting the elongated hood.

Would love to see those rear haunches on the real Z.

I'm saying the main thing the new z needs is to shed a few hundred pounds I've seen you mention that before, I hope they can.

Dont worry about the weight part. That was the first thing Nissan guaranteed us. I'm sure we'll be in the 2,900-3,000 lb range when the next Z comes out.
