How many Z's were sold in 2014?

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

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.
