Thats why I don't pay attention to resale value. Fact of the matter is, any new car will start to depreciate as soon as you drive it home. I just buy what I like and sell it when I'm bored of it

lol

yeah but 10k in a year c'mon but no point in trying to make a point, hybrids are really not a good value considering the price, the damage they do to the environment (nobody thinks of the battery), lack of room and performance loss, anyway I'm happy with my Z as is...nice read thou

On what planet does a GTR come with 800hp from the factory?

I feel hybrid technology is not optimized enough to put into an entry level sports car. hybrid system in a prius works well because its designed to be eco, and hybrid system in a p1 or 918 work well because it is highly advanced (and expensive) technology and purely for performance. if Nissan were to make a hybrid Z, their priority with the system will be to make the car more efficient, not necessarily to perform to maximum potential.

Nissan has what looks like is going to be the most successful electric car lineup in the world. It makes sense that they can put a cheap and reliable hybrid component into their sports cars. Torque-fill FTW!

Not interested, not buying.

Z + Hybrid + mid-engine + twin turbo = mini mclaren p1

I fixed it for you. I hope they don't drug test where you work

Here are the new supra details and while I'm not thrilled about it I can see nissan going the same direction.

Sports hybrids/electric cars are on the horizon it seems... lets see what is on the market (and the price) in 2017.
