He said sports car, not super car.

The GTR is more of a super car. I think the 911 falls in the sportcar category

Nope, not at all. It's an exotic, for sure, but not a super car. Hell, that's the selling point of a gtr or 911tt. Super car performance without the price tag and you can drive it every day.

I always labeled the GTR as the supercar killer.

I think it's a Japanese super car in terms of performance but at a... very expensive sports car price.

911... hmmm lol I always considered them similar to the GTR. but always leaned more on super car aspect.


imagine if the Z did something similar to the stang.... 4banger 2L TT, 6 banger 3L TT and a 6 bang 3.7 TT pushing 500+ hp... drool :icon17:

Not a civic or corolla?

uhh doesn't sell more than 10k cars a year?

not often on the street?

McLaren/lambo's/Ferrari's/lotus/r8's I would classify as exotic.

even the z is exotic in it's own sense since it's one of the few 2seat RWD coupes on the market.

I think the top tier Turbo is considered a supercar and the cars below are exotics.

Not sure if this was discussed in this thread already, but I don't think Nissan will come out with a manual trans, if and when they make the new Z.

Being very realistic, the C7 sells around 3k a month, and that's the best selling 2 seat sports car. So even if Nissan could somehow match those numbers and 1/3 decide to get a manual trans. That's only 12k (and that's a far stretch) for a whole year. I just don't see how Nissan would get the go ahead from Carlos Gohsn to approve a new manual trans for those numbers.

I guess for those of us who have a 6mt, we'd better enjoy it. :driving:

Why wouldn't they sell a manual? It helps lower the price of the car. I don't think Nissan cares about how many manual cars they sell. I always thought one of the selling points of the Z was price and if Nissan still cares about that selling point then they will still offer a manual.
