Tech wise we're pretty damned outdated as well - Case in point....To this day we still need the Nav Package to stream BT Audio while the current Altima can stream it with no problem, without nav....My Wife's '15 Sonata Limited is mind blowing. The car damned near drives itself and it starts at 20k is about 30k fully dolled up like hers is.

Also, Hyundai BlueLink is BAD. ***. I really hope Nissan steps it's game up and adds something like this to it's lineup.

Power wise if we don't have 400+ HP, We're a failure - No questions asked....the V8s are kissing 450hp out the box nowadays.

IMO the 370Z was damned near perfect, it just needed more power.

I would pay $60k for a 3.7 TT Z. Heck i would pay more.
i dont mind the 'outdated' engine.
I have done it once and i will gladly do it again.

I said 3.7 with a twin turbo.
The tt is worth 10k alone..if we are getting all that with no downtime..it most definitely seems worth it

If I were on Nissan's board I'd say screw the average consumer and let's only offer a TT 6MT hardtop with adjustable coil-overs, launch control and variable boost... but maybe that's why I'm not in business. They'd sell like 5 of them.:rofl2:

You would be the only one. The Z32 died because of this. Nissan simply cannot be THAT fricking stupid again. Amirite?

They can get a nicely loaded Z35 with 400+HP, new engine, everything, for mid $40's. The tooling and platforms are already there. Thats what keeps the current Z pricing reasonable. Its not going to be a Q, itll be exactly where the Z34 is. faster, harder than the G, but fewer "things". For cheaper. And thats the way it should be.

DEFINATELY don't need a built motor. It's not gonna hurt, but people make over 500 without touching internals. I added price of fuel pump and injectors into cost. Also, transmission not necessity but a z1 flywheel/clutch combo are always very reasonably priced. Even if you built the motor, you would get out for less than 60k. That's my point haha. Like everyone has always said I just hope there is a factory turbo option, otherwise 60k is gonna be a hard sell
