I'm ok with it. The actual car will be toned down but that's deff a step towards the future.

An automatic is like a B&W tv agreed. Or a date who keeps her pants on.

I like it, too. The front end looks pretty nice. Be nice to see the rear views.

That thing looks like a large mouth bass. No way. The Z frontend has always been wedge shaped.

ChaseZ · 01-26-2017, 10:10 PM

There have been a bazillion different renderings already and will be a bazillion more before anybody has a clue what it'll look like. Just like the Supra

ChaseZ · 01-26-2017, 10:11 PM

I will say though there are aspects of that one I quite like. And others I do not of course.

cooltoy · 01-26-2017, 10:13 PM

Any look can be changed with a body kit. 500 HP sounds good though.

Are those mirrors or bug antennae?

500hp for 50-60k will eat through the GTR sales. I don't think Nissan will let that happen when they debut the new GTR next year.

At most it would wear 410-420 hp utilizing the Q60 red Sport engine (just like squeezing a few more hp more than the same G37 engine).

I'm more interested if they will offer awd to utilize the power or not

But it sounds good.

Concept mirrors that are completely useless in reality

Maybe it will have OEM Craftsquare mirrors?

ChaseZ · 01-26-2017, 10:20 PM

I do hope the new Z whatever it will look like doesn't adopt this trailer quarter glass or whatever they want to call it that they started using in many of the new designs. Just not a fan personally.

cooltoy · 01-26-2017, 10:40 PM

ChaseZ, I think you need a black avatar.

triso07 · 01-27-2017, 08:49 AM

That's just a shitty rendering. I wouldn't pay attention to that visual there. The details about the powertrain are exciting though. Hopefully they offer a manual as well.

Redglare · 01-27-2017, 09:01 AM

No manual, no thanks. If I wanted a dual clutch gear banger i'd get a golf R. This is hobby car for most of us, corvette seems to know that and their sales reflect that.

"Folks always like to know what the breakdown is with the 7-speed manual transmission vs the new 8-speed automatic. For the 2015 Corvette Stingray, that breakdown was 25.6% manual and 74.4% automatic. For the Z06, the take rate on the 7-speed manual was 51.6% while the new 8-speed auto accounted for 48.4%. The automatics started production a little over a month after the 7-speed manuals so perhaps this will change for 2016."

This is a perfect example of a hobby car, and hey look its 25% and 51% manual sales,

People will still buy it and enjoy it for what it is, but many of us will move on.
