I got the first Nismo one coming..... Remember??? I done paid fur it. I am first.

I don’t know if what Chubbs says will pan out but it sounds plausible enough to me. My father owned a Nissan dealership for a long time. I know they would show mock-ups to customers in the US before locking in designs so not a stretch if they did it now. If they do make a new Z, they’d be smart to get feedback to insure they launch something that people want to buy. We can all hope he turns out to be right.

Mine's a base model. I can't afford all that extra hp. I hear the hp increase over the base model is going from 18 hp in the Z34 Nismo to a 23 hp increase in the Z35 Nismo :driving:

Looks like someone just got out of art school with that rending. :rofl2:

Confusing is the first sign of old age. ;)

You guys are soooo late. The local junk yard has a totaled Z35 sitting in the back lot. The story is that it couldn't get out of it's own way and got ran over by a lorry. :driving:

Not even, looks like a Jr. High art contest entry. Lol. It's terrible. :icon17:

LMAO...or wisdow!:icon17:

To ZS-Carpenter: Your comment is the get-out-clause of a coward. Pretending to be hard, but leaving yourself an escape route for when you run (as you will).

To Spooler: Eat fewer burgers.

To xfrgtr: You are the contemporary Bard of Avon. :icon23:

To Rusty: Yours is the only sensible, half-intelligent comment of the four that quoted me. To answer your question, the next thing I shall 'come up with' is a big, fat, "Told You So'. My keyboard fingers are quivering in anticipation.

By the way, I agree with the recent posters - that render in blue is the normal load of bollox we see at times like this.


ps - hopefully this post will help you pass a bit of time until you see the new Z.

You are a flat out liar that knows nothing. piss off

Hello pot. Meet kettle. You've yet to make a legitimate comment that could be backed up or even stood on down the road. You hem and haw and hedge your comments so that when the Z does finally come out you can shout it from the mountain top that you said it first. Even though you really haven't said anything at all :rolleyes:

FWIW, I actually spoke with Nissan Corporate yesterday and they said they've never heard of you...

chubbs you're speaking against an audience thats louder than you.

What's your hobby? Hitting people with your handbag? You're just guessing here and sadly for you, you're wrong. :tiphat:

You're quite right! But even when they're loud, keyboards aren't too noisy.
I know some Americans can be a little brash, but when you've been a British football (soccer) fan for over 50 years it's only a few actual kicks in the face that mean anything significant.

Anyway, scepticism is a worthy human trait. If people believed everything they were told, you'd have someone like Donald Trump as your Presid...

...oh, hold on a minute.

:p FWIW 'Chubbs' isn't actually my real name. If you really did ask someone in America if they know Chubbs, they'd probably put you down as a bit of a weirdo.

If you re-read my posts I have actually made statements that could be backed up - it's just that I haven't backed them up, so you're well within your rights to disbelieve me.

When the car's revealed, I'll be tempted to tell you more, because I respect your scepticism. I'd be just the same as you, in your position. However, I think I may not post at all at that point, unless it's to correct anyone's errors.

To be honest, I don't have any interest in bragging - I've just been trying to contribute to a thread which is of great interest to me and to fellow Z enthusiasts (or obsessives, as I am). If you enjoy spending some of your spare time attacking me, go ahead, it's fine. I'm not here to make enemies.

I'm as keen as the next man to see the new Z - fully intending to get one, which will be my 5th over a period of fifteen years. Hopefully the rumours of a 400hp 3.0l twin turbo will come true, because that's what I want. I'm not some here-today-gone-tomorrow internet troll, I'm a genuine enthusiast who has been on this site since 2009 (I don't post a great deal here, because I'm over the ocean from you).

Finally, to your claim that I haven't seen anything at all... ... ...


:horse:


always wanted to use that gif. Happy Christmas to you.

Easy big boy. Need him around for some laughs now.

He can't hit you with a handbag. Because if he does. He might bruise his balls.

Fixed that for you. LMAO

:rofl2::rofl2::rofl2::rofl2:

He is far too committed to his lies to give up now. Look at how he tries to cover his *** in his last post. "after it comes out and i read all the specs I'll tell you I knew all those things I just read" :bowrofl:

CHI auto show is in feb, he'll be here a couple weeks before with the same old chit

Got to keep him around for chits and giggles. :rofl2:

:rolleyes: Who in their right mind would have thought that it was your real name? TBCH... when I did ask them about this guy named chubbs... your posts on this forum were reknowned to them for their ignorance :twocents:

EXACTLY!! :facepalm: :facepalm:

:rolleyes: We all know exactly what you will do... claim to have been the first to know :rolleyes:

:rofl2: If that were true you would keep you mouth shut/keyboard quiet.

Your contributions have been negative. No one is attacking you other than for your useless contributions to the thread. Deservedly so from what I can see.

Good for you. If this had been all you had posted you wouldn't have gotten such a reaction :)

I am a troll, and you sure sound like a troll to me. I'm guessing you brought up nationality for more reasons than the time zone difference :stirthepot:

Too bad you used it wrong :bowrofl:

You're the one beating the dead horse claiming you know secret details on the new Z without any information to back it up :ugh2:

Exactly and its not the first time, He's been saying the same thing since 2017. Check Page 210. He is a mythomaniac.

What is it that people think he’s lied about?

I see that this thread has completely gone off the rails.

So now.... heres a supposed EV sketch of the Z.

https://www.autoevolution.com/news/n...gn-139765.html

Go ahead and ruin the Z.
Thanks to the Ford Crosstang or Mustover? Whatever it's called? Nissan may choose to fvck up the Z like Ford. :koolaidwall:

I can see something like this around 2030.

Detour.

This thread started March of 15. Been a lot written about the new Z35. None of it has been true. Just a bunch of wishing on a star. He's just another one in a long line of people saying it's coming next auto show. And it never does. Guys are tired of it. You going to say something now. You better be able to back it up. Like the test mule. That was a short lived story on the net. Lasted something like a week if that. If it was true. We would still be talking about. That story was only to gain viewers for those websites. I've got nothing against chubbs personally. Just when he says something. Back it up. That's all. None of this a friends cousin's wife's, uncle's, grandfather's, brother, nephew told me stuff.

We have a chubbs on the Power Wagon forum too.

I understand the frustration. I think it’s likely that what Chubbs and others have reported here over the years is or was true at the time. Think back to the episode of “Leno’s Garage” when Jay was speaking to the people that where working on the next Z. That was not a lie or a planned deception. The issue is that Nissan has been in turmoil. I’d bet their plans for the next Z have stopped/started and changed a few times over the last 5 years and that has delayed launch of a Z35. So what people have posted could have been true at that point. No reason to call people liars. The fact no one is talking about the test mule from a few weeks ago doesn’t mean it wasn’t legit. It just means people aren’t talking about it. If you don’t believe it, fine. No reason to make things personal. We are all here because we love Z’s and hope Nissan continues the line with something great.

Yeap, this is a garbage thread. Garbage in and nothing coming out but Hype and speculation. That is why you can say whatever your imagination can come up with. Chubbs in the south aren't people, they are in your pants if you have one.

That's chubby's up north. " I got a chubby in my pants from looking at that hottie".

When did I make it personal? I never did.

I believe Nissan has had plans for the new Z for years. But they have never said anything to lead me to believe it's coming soon. Everything that's been written has been speculation.

Not you directly. Others sure have.

Recently both the chief designer and president of Nissan have said the new Z is coming. I’ll check back here again if and when that happens.

How long did it take GM to produce a mid engine? They actually had several test mules made before most of those commenting were born! In the grand scheme of things time has no reverence other than to man!!!:stirthepot:

President of Nissan has never said that a new Z is coming.

Right you are. It was just Ivan Espinosa the VP of Global and Japan product planning. I guess we can’t trust him to tell the truth.

Please allow me to apologise to all of you. It was never my intention to create friction, or anger and I am truly sorry that this has happened. As fellow Z enthusiasts, we should not be squabbling and clearly it is my fault. This place is a wonderful resource for 370z owners - long may it continue. I wish you all well.

For the life of me I can’t figure out what Ford was thinking when they named it “mustang”.

It’s like naming all your kids the same name. Sorry, Mr. Foreman, no disrespect...

You don't need to apologize to me. I'm only here for the chits and giggles. :rofl2:

Man don't apologize. We're enthusiasts. We follow news, we get excited, some people hear things, some people dont. Sometimes its accurate, sometimes its not.

Just cuz some people mad and they clique up with the same kotex raged emotions about not having solid info on the new Z and they get mad... Your intentions came from a solid place. You dont have a history of trolling or acting out on the forum.

For all intents and purposes, I think what you're saying is true...
Its NISSAN that's bipolar about the Z. So what you heard can now be outdated cuz now they decided to restructure or stall the project.

Nissan is who frustrates us...
Nobody should be getting so mad at one member they're on a 3 page rant just cuz u have 3rd party in information. At best all that needs to be said is, I dont trust that... I'll believe it when I see it. And done.

As for the test mule, j think it was either an engine or suspension test. Not a chassis test. So that's why I think that could've been a mule. Cuz early tests of those parts are often seen in an older car. My middle finger to anyone mad cuz my intuition kicked in.

Does it mean a Z will come out?
No...
It just means they're doing a performance check on parts they plan to use if they go thru with it.

WE ALL LOVE THE Z HERE.

Let's not ride people over faith or lack thereof, of information.

Happy Holidays to all and hoping we get some true azz solid Z news for the holiday!!!
