I don't belive there will be a next Z. At least not for a few years. We might see a hiatus from the Z line like we did after the Z32. At least that's the inside scoop I've got. Milking this Z34 body is exactly what was described to me over 2 years ago by inside folks at Nissan. 2016 should be the final year, as the Nismo convertible will be a one year only type deal for '16.

I can see both sides to the argument. At the end of the day Nissan is like any other car company that's trying to sell units for $$$. Their current Z sales are dismal, but there's still a chance they will offer a new Z that's both competitive and profitable. Performance cars are on the rise, everyone's got cars putting out lots of power and great handling. If Nissan doesn't at least give the Z one last try they are marginalizing themselves and the brand as a whole. The GT-R may be their super car but the Z is everyone's sports car.

If the Z gets put on hiatus, Nissan will just have the soon to be crazy expensive new GT-R and no other performance offerings? That doesn't seem like a good idea since that's one of the few things separating them from Hondas and Toyotas now, the performance.

If Nissan were smart, they'd focus more on the Versa (Note) and less on Sentra. Hot hatches are really popular internationally, but I really have no idea what kind of person buys a performance upgraded Sentra, that makes no sense to me Z should be their money maker in the performance line though. If that means offering multiple engine packages in the z35 I am all for it. Mustang has 3 different engine configurations now, including a turbo-4. The successor to the z34 really needs to try and capture different market segments like its competitors are. |

TO make the Z a worthwhile investment for them, they should definitely have several trim/engine levels to sell more units. They could have one that slots just above the frs/brz, then one that is a m3 fighter.
