2016 3xx plan

I'm keeping my current Z. No 4 cylinders for me. I think Nissan needs to focus on a platform that is both lighter and more fuel efficient. We have Corvettes

It is the Corvette, not the 4 cylinder Z, that has my eye.

A turbo four banger ,hybrid with 400 ft lbs of torque would be sweet. But so would a 4 cylinder turbo Cummings.

Replace the cat head with the hamburger. Think the guys who styled the Z and the F Type went to the same design school. I see some of the overall design ideas in both cars.

No worries Roddy. I just hope that you'll agree with me that every person in this world has a different level of communicating their message to others. Especially in a kind and respectful manner. Some are excellent at it while others could use some improvement.

Unfortunately, I was not born with this gift. However luckily for me, over time my parents, teachers and reading books like these have improved my skills in this area. So while you may not agree with me, I believe a person who could effectively communicate their message in the 1930's would almost certainly retain that abilty in 2014.
