How many Z's were sold in 2014?

Also have to remember that the Camaro/Mustang/Challenger all have multiple engine options with a 2+2 design. So people feel easier thinking they have more room for others, plus if they don't want to spend big money on the 'fastest' version they can get a basic model for fairly cheap (which is about about 70% of the American cars are).

With numbers this low are we sure there is going to be a Z35?

It would be a hard sell to the stockholders. Even if Ghosn can work some magic (like bringing back the Z33).

The plus is the Z platform is shared with other models in both Nissan & Infiniti so that helps.
I think the big question is how are they planning to do the next gen model. The iDX was unique but Nissan said as a single platform it will not work but could it be combined with the Z platform maybe to help? Also the G (or q whatever) seems to be going its own direction and might not share as much with the Z other than engine possibly.

That's a fair question.

Chevrolet Corvette Sales Figures - GOOD CAR BAD CAR

A 2 seat sports car is definitely in a niche market, and with the Corvette being number one by far in this market, selling almost 37,000 last year. I am guessing the Nissan execs would have to think, in order to make a profit and go forward with the Z. They would need to have a car competitive enough to the Corvette, to actually steal sales from them. If not, the Z may be idled till they do.

Being an optimist, I have a feeling Nissan has something special in the works and are excellent about keeping it silent. Let's hope I'm right as this new Z could make an impact in this segment, just like the GTR did upon it's arrival. I'm happy that the C7 is a great car and hope it spurs other manufacturers to be competitive with it as well.

It's one or the other from what I heard. z or idx.

The Z will survive or at least the name.
If anything we will see a Z with two engines possibly for the first time to help offset the 'performance' model of the v6. Similar to what we see in the Mustang/Camaro where the v6 keeps the v8 on the road.

Yes we are rare. That's why people often think the Z's are SUPER cars

Of course I like it a lot.

Didn't want to start a new thread...

Just looked at the latest US Z sales figures ytd for the Z on Good Car Bad Car. So... 370Z sales are averaging 310 / mo (~3700 annualized). That's down from 4600+ in 2017, ~5900 in 16, and ~7400 in 15. Nissan is currently selling 1/2 the # vs just a few years ago.

Will Nissan just let this model die on the vine in a couple years?

I think so, I believe they are sinking all of their time and r&d into SUV's and alternative energy cars. On the sports car side it's all going towards the GTR which is a shame being the normal working man cannot afford one. Love your Z like it's the only one left.

The less 370z on the road, the more valuable and collectable? Along with all the wrecks, the non-modded 370z's will be on future mecum shows. Haha

Well, here's to exclusivity!!!
