Back in 09' the Z was faster than most of the V8 "muscle cars". I can't wait for a Z that will blow that Ford 5.0 away, and with the new Inifinity TT V6 I can see that happening pretty easily as long as they keep tradition of upping the power in the flagship engine for the Z. If that actually happens I'll be waiting for the Nismo before I buy. Looks like I have until about 2020 to save up for it LOL

Disagree.

I'm pumped to see what it looks like.

Curious if they're being funny saying concept and it'll be out in spring. That would be tits

triso07 · 01-27-2017, 08:47 AM

Dual clutch and 400hp twin turbo hell yes.

NissanFreak81 · 01-27-2017, 09:05 AM

Hopefully the dual clutch will be able to hang with the pdk system.

Nissan can do it if they've zeroed in on where they want to compete. They did it with the GR6 in the GT-R against the 911 Turbo (Nissan was very clear that they benchmarked the 911 Turbo with the R35).

Yes, I know they can, just hope that they will, because the new Z and Q60 are begging for a good dual clutch!

Disconcerting absence of a manual transmission in all that talk on C&D.

The better news is that it will share a platform with the Infiniti siblings instead of that modular platform that it was rumored to share with the next-gen Juke.

7 Speed Dual Clutch makes sense in that it will absolutely be shared with the Infinitis that are very due for that, but I'm worried it may be sourced from Mercedes (the only dual clutch offered by Infiniti currently is the QX30, and that's paired with the Merc's 2.0T)... I'll bet money it's either Mercedes-sourced, or Borg Warner has something cooking for this (that would be my preference)

All in all, it sounds like that $60k figure will absolutely be seen once you option this sucker out.

I always wanted back into a Z, but if they make a manual in this new Z mated to the VR30DDTT, it's possible that drivetrain configuration could make it into a Q50, and a 6MT twin turbo Q50 will be my forever car without a doubt.

Now we can all finally look forward to Tokyo and see what happens!

To back up your point I currently have a 2015 merc with the 2.0 and dct at my disposal and it is not very good. Hopefully they go with another choice than that or that unit with much better tcm and better clutch packs.

Sidenote the missing mt talk gives me a chubby
