2013 was the change for the sport coupe, 2014 is all about the Nismo edition.

But the price will no doubt increase to show for it. Yada yada, I know inflation, yen/dollar rate, etc.

:wtf2:

I figured as much. All that speculation :rolleyes:, I guess we can just be glad they didn't can the Z altogether.

:twocents:

I figured as much. What's sad is how Nissan has seemingly forgot about the 370z since the GTRs release in 2009. Everything the 350z wasn't was addressed in the 370z, and then they just put the whole thing on the back burner and just focused on the GTR.

I almost feel like the Z35 will be a half *** attempt from Nissan as well considering how they've ignored the Z34. Such a shame to do to the iconic "Z" name.

Chuck33079 07-18-2013 12:51 PM

The 370 was released right as the economy went into the toilet. Sales sucked as a result. I'm half surprised they've even kept it around. They're not going to spend a lot of money on a redesign for a vehicle that sells <10k units a year.

As was the GTR, and look what they've done with that.

JungleZ 07-18-2013 01:10 PM

New bumper looks to much like 350z... Love the fangs

When the GTR was released, it cost a hell of a lot less than it did now. They've raised the price pretty much every year. Granted, the performance had kept pace with the price. It also had a lot of pent up demand since it was the first ever USDM GTR.

b15 07-18-2013 02:23 PM

Very true. Being the Halo car, it gets the R&D attention and money. I just wish the Z wasn't so neglected :(

Montez 07-18-2013 02:42 PM

I feel the Z and the Max have both been neglected for the most part by Nissan since their intro for the 09 Model year......

coolvans1988 07-18-2013 05:18 PM

I think the maxima for 2014 got redesigned, but its too pricey in my opinion.
Rather get a g37 sedan for the price.

Umm nope its the same, Z and Max based on what I heard latest both are suppose to be new for the 16 model year.

b15 07-18-2013 06:23 PM

With how far Nissan has brought the Altima, the Maxima is pretty irrelevant. Even with the discounts, I'd rather just get a G37x/Q50x

The BlueMax 07-18-2013 07:48 PM

low production #s
 
Low production numbers is why they are doing very little to the car, profits are thin, but at least we don't see ourselfs going up & down the road all the time like corvette, mustang & camero owners.

forza370z 07-18-2013 08:05 PM

350 lasted 6 model years. I am not surprised 370 will do the same.

Magic Bus 07-18-2013 08:09 PM

:iagree:

The car or the front bumper.....

enkei2k 07-19-2013 10:30 AM

OT - I am interested to hear that they will be releasing a next gen Rogue finally. I was about to get one for the parents but I will wait and see how this new one is.

:iagree: that's a significant change they did between the pre2013's and 2013... even the stereo wiring and all is different per Big.

Brutal 370Z 07-19-2013 10:37 AM

Not complaining about the lack of change. Longer they wait, the more money I save! lol

dirTy_shoeZ 07-19-2013 10:37 AM

if they should do anything id say keep perfecting the chassis they got, ive had one of each and this sucker is BAD!, after a couple aftermarket adjustments and its to much fun. Personally im glad they havent messed with the body cause i have a 2010 and it still looks like a new one lol

peleincubus 07-19-2013 01:28 PM

I was hoping the would drop to about 23k with the exchange rate. Haha

beltonr 07-19-2013 01:56 PM

On the other hand . . . you are still driving the "new" model - you are not stuck with the "old" model!

Was there speculation over this?

I think its tied into assumptions about the release of the 2014 Q50 and what that may (or may not) reveal about the next gen Z.

The Z35, I believe, will not be revealed/released before 2015-16.

Old model?

That's the "classic" edition :shakes head:

( Click to show/hide )
Actually, it really is -- a model that corresponds to the design and build of Z on its 40th anniversary

There was a lot of chatter about how the new Z was going to be smaller, lighter, turbo & BLah blah blah. Doesn't really matter I'm not a car swapper anyhow (Don't need the latest every 2 years or so) I've got the car I want. ;) YMMV

spearfish25 07-22-2013 08:34 PM

I still think the 370Z looks like a car that could have been released last week. Such a modern sleek styling.

LiquidCrewZ 07-22-2013 10:18 PM

Keep the cars exterior the same and add more HP under the hood. DONE!

Agreed. I parked my '08 350Z next to a stock '10 370Z a few years ago, and my Z33 looked fat and outdated in comparison. I never thought I'd get over the headlights and fangs, but here I am.
