[OFFICIAL] Discussion for the next new Nissan 400Z Z35?

Jordo! · 06-04-2016, 01:43 AM

Yeah... I was kind of bummed to see that if the Q60 isn't coming out until 2017, then we're looking at 2018 for the Z35 at soonest.

Speaking of 2017, although it would need FI to really haul ass, has anyone taken a look at this sweet new iteration of the MX-5?

Now there's a "baby Z"

I want to see one in red and also black...

V8 Hybrid AWD. Much like Nissan is thinking about doing with the GTR but with the V6TT, engine propelling the rear inline with a smell electric motor and two more electric motors running the front two wheels. I read somewhere they are tryin to perfect the "super track attack" mode that will launch the GTR 0-60 in 1.8seconds.

Haven't seen you in a while FP. I agree. Also, I'll be pissed if the next gen Z is EPAS. I'm praying they stay tried and true.

First year they sold a lil over 15k units.... then 10k, then 7k, then it hovered around 5k units a year. Many people's bought Z's in the first year traded out by the 3rd year. I think this new Z will be more competitive so I think we'll see closer to the 8 or 10k mark with about the 15/18k units the first year. That turbo engine is going to attract more buyers...

It's clearly a Nissan. Just look at the gas cap

Yea I've been a bit absent lately due to actually having to work for a change lol

But I'm with you hoping that the turbo will bring back a lot of people who've traded the Z for better things. Numbers should be higher like you said.

Review of the 2016 Infiniti Q50 400HP Sports Sedan. Is this how the future Z35 is going to drive?

brucelidat · 06-06-2016, 01:04 PM

Yeah, reviews on it are not good, but I don't think the Z will drive like the q50.

B&W_Evader · 06-06-2016, 02:34 PM

LOL great video. Hope they don't ruin th Z like that! We'll take the 400hp but they can keep the rest of the BS off.

FPenvy · 06-06-2016, 03:51 PM

Oh god I saw that video earlier and that car looked awful trying to go hard on the track.

I'm going with the others and agreeing the Z won't be like that. For one the sport will have a lsd and I would hope they leave out that stupid direct adaptive steering bs

I wouldn't compare the sedan to the upcoming Z coupe if it happens. Smaller, lighter, better weight distribution, different suspension tuning. Engine and rear diff are probably the only things they will actually share.

Infiniti stated way back in 2012 that the Q series will be separating in philosophy from the Z they will no longer share as much as they used to as infmginiti will try to expand in technology and the Z is supposed to expand in driver performance. So don't expect DAS in the Z, thank God... EPAS is what scares me though.... let's stay hydraulic... please!!!! I'll take the gas penalty. Can't be worse than the 15.6mpg I get combined... lol
