More info on the next 370Z
 
I hope your right but I really don't think you are. I don't think nissan is looking at the mustang as much as there looking at the s2000, supra, and a potential new RX-7. All the info we've gotten so far sounds an awful lot like the info we've gotten from Toyota and Honda. So for 30,000 I would expect the turbo 4 and I just don't see that beating the 5.0. The car market has changed a lot since the 300zx. I for one would pay 60k in a second if the car is worth it.

Where can u get a new 911s for 60k? Last I checked those car's start at 98k.

i honestly wouldn't pay 60k for Z, even if it did have 400hp. That's just crazy. You have people here who invested about 15-20k and are having 500-600+ whp cars. so why pay for one with 400hp that's 60k. o.0

Ive been saying 6 cylinder hybrid for over a year now. Theyll use the existing Q50 stuff, tweak the crap, boom 410+ HP, 5.0 fighter for $30-ish base. They ALREADY have existing hardware to match/best it. Just like the G37 was to the 370. They dont need to re-tool all that much for a Z35. And by the time the Z35 debuts they will have all the hybrid, drivetrain kinks worked out.

Yea, but a starting $60K Nissan? Thats the price point Im seriously staring look at a 911. Id never pay $60K for a Nissan either unless they dropped the price on the GTR lol

We shall see. I didn't think about the Q50 equipment so you do make a good argument. Still how do explain the two different engine options that we have here'd so much about. By your logic the turbo four model would have to start considerably lower than 30k.

yea, probably an 86 fighter for low, mid 20's, then you step up to $30-32K base, some nice options with tech package etc maybe $39K, much like now, maybe a bit hiher due to inflation but relative for the 5.0, S2000, Supra etc level.

This can't be the new S2000 you all are talking about comparing to the Z, right?

Me? I havent looked up anything about a future S2000, just going off what others stated. That link shows a paltry vehicle for competition for a Z35 platform.

watson853 08-13-2014 10:00 AM

This article is much more recent and what I was referring to.

Also here's the supra info

That Supra, if it comes to fruition is going to be a beast.

Eclipz 08-13-2014 10:10 AM

So many people were dissapointed that the new supra is going to be a hybrid turbo 4. Many people expected a turbo inline 6

And if 350 hp is for the engine plus hybrid, thats pretty disappointing, considering the cla amg is close to that with just an engine

watson853 08-13-2014 10:13 AM

I agree. I also think that the s2000 being mid engined rwd is pretty amazing.

Eclipz 08-13-2014 10:16 AM

Yeah I just love the way mid engined cars look. You can push the wheels to the edges of car, and get great weight distribution
