fyi the search function on the site kinda blows.

if you want to find things on here the easiest way is google search. top results of anything with 370Z in the search typically will be this site.

Honestly the latest rumor from what I heard.... The Z or the IDX. Either or. But only 1 can be built. nissan doesn't want to lose its Z community so it's a toss up. However it may contain multiple selection of engines. It will more than likely not come with a turbo due to all the problems the z32 had w warranty coverage and costs to nissan. That being said they may release a MR2/2JZ version, iron engine to hold boost pressure for after market applications. Let the people build what they want on a solid platform. The question now is. Do you bite on a yellow Z first year or wait 2-3 years for all the bugs to be fixed? Possible a 50th anniversary in 2020?!?

A lot has happened to turbos in the past 20 years.

turbo's have gotten better, but engines in pursuit of performance and light weight have gotten questionably worst in terms of durability.

plus putting FI on a car is putting a lot more wear and tear than one may actually give credit for.

like the CLA AMG... beast engine but seriously question its longevity.

There is no Z its dead just like Supra.

I recently heard that Nissan may use a turbo charged 4 and loose the model number designation and just call it a "Z".

I find it hard to believe they'd wait until 2020 to release whatever the next gen Z will be.

Dwight Frye

It's gonna be called the 380Z. It will be stroked to 3.8 liters to give it increased torque, with 380 ft lbs of torque and 380 HP. It will also have 380 lbs removed in weight which will cut .38 seconds off of the 0-60 time and have an MSRP of $38,000.

Nissan engineers have been working dilligently to hit every one of those parameters. I have a spy in their design center who has seen the test mule and he swears it's true.

LAVA

You forgot the one most important fact...Target demographic is 38, only persons 38 years old will be allowed to purchase the new 380Z.

Mr. Frye, please try to be more diligent when posting factual information about the next gen Z or the ban hammer will start swinging!

Magic Bus

Also heard only 380 will be sold across the US.

LAVA

This is also correct

Z_ealot

Dang, someone will have to notify their production facilities then cause there's been way more than 370, 370z's produced

Eclipz

2020 was a joke but it's been 6 years and we still don't have any solid knowledge of what the next generation Z will be, so i won't be surprised if we have to wait until 2020

Datsun240Z71

Special lease deals and financing offers (3.8%) for 38 months too?
38 month warranty or 38k miles whichever comes first?
