I'm not really a sedan guy, but I really dig the new Genesis!

That?? Nooooo. They showed a long wheelbase a couple days ago as a mule car. I'm hoping, it's not a legit project. More engine config/drivetrain.

Anyone not interested in a hybrid sports car might wanna start watching Mazda.

Nice find. Can't wait to see what it looks like.

I find it hard to believe anything written with such horrible grammatical errors and from such a shoddy looking site.

Yea....I know. Only thing "new" in this "article" was a firm number, 408. Sounds fishy.

I agree, I'm pretty much not going to believe anything until it's confirmed by Nissan.

Well agreed but... just because you have inside information does not make one a writer. :ughdance:

408 just sound right for a "modern" factory 3.0L turbo and in IMO what the platform needs to compete in the horsepower wars. (It is also about what the 3.0L TT 2015 Porsche Panamera S has). With the weight savings and up 58 HP from the Nizmo you would have quite the beast.

originally when all the talk about nissan ditching the V6 for a 4 banger i wrote off ever getting another Z.

now with the rumors of a turbo V6 and possible targa top my interest has peaked more than i could have imagined. if nissan comes through with a 400hp turbo 6cyl and a targa top i will be first in line lol

the big ticket would still be the turbo engine. look at all the 370's that go boost and have nothing but trouble. NA motors just arent meant to be boosted sometimes lol now you take a turbo stock engine and you can play :)

this has more to do with the iDX, but it does mention a tidbit about the iDX being built on the next gen Z chassis which is extremely good news for the weight part of the equation since they have said the iDX is going to be under 2700lbs or somewhere close....... Nissan Will Build IDx Coupe, But With Styling Changes - Boldride.com

No matter what a smart man should have 3 to 4 years to wait before purchasing the new Z. We still don't know when it's going to come out and even once it does only a fool would buy it in the first 2 years of being out. Way I see it, a 50th year sounds just right
