Default Next z model

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?!?

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.
