2016 Nissan Z: Sorry, Z Fans, No Return to Roots Just Yet

I'd be disappointed if they keep the current 7AT instead of developing a cheaper DCT (the GT-R's trans alone would be half the price of a Z). An evolutionary improvement

I'd be disappointed if they keep the current 7AT instead of developing a cheaper DCT (the GT-R's trans alone would be half the price of a Z). An evolutionary improvement would be good enough though. Adding DI and better cooling for brakes and oil with a few more lbs of weight reduction in the front would probably be good enough to keep the Z in the game for a few more years as performance car.
