Hate to tell you this. But that's an old picture of a GT-R with the V6. Seen it about 2 years ago.

Believe it was on Playstation too.

I like where the concept is going. It's still a bit raw and needs refinement, but I like the direction towards a futuristic version of the 240Z. I especially like the roof line and more slender body. They need to retain the wide rear end though. That's the best angle of the 370Z. What I don't like are all the crazy lines and angles on the panels. It doesn't need it and I doubt most of it will make it to the production car. It reminds me of the GT-86 Concepts. Also, this doesn't look like a Nissan designer created it. More like a very creative artist. I wouldn't put too much thought into it, including all the hate. It's one of the better renderings we've seen so far.

Next Z with a 4 cylinder, smaller, and looks riced out. Pass

I think that's the car they unveiled last week or the week before alongside the new Lexus and Acura NSX.

There hasn't been a V4 for production cars since the 1960's.

Care to try again?

Disappointed. The styling sucks. The original S30 was meant to be the "one and only." Nissan is wimping it down: 4 banger turbo? How about a 6 cyl hybrid instead?

...I'm gonna buy a used 40th anniversary down the road. Or maybe a clean z32 tt or FD3S with a LS7 swapped.

I don't know man. There be V2s out there. Someone might get a hair up their yang and add a couple more pistons. Then Voila! V4 BABY!

EDIT: Feel free to flame me for this.

Beyond that, you'd probably have to go back to the Porsche 944, which wasn't a bad little car.

there's also the genesis coupe with the 4cyl turbo, but not sure if one would consider that a "sports car".

Always funny reading those crazy comments by people.

As long as it has a distinct exhaust note and more horse than the current Z, I'm all for it.

Hey here's a couple of ideas,

1. Why don't we take the Corn that we grow, and turn it into fuel ....!

2. Let's cut all Carbon Dioxide emissions to zero, that includes human breathing, then expect Trees and other Greenery to grow more prevalent!

World 'saved'....
