Not to shift the focus from the Z, but the supra is for sure coming out. We all saw the functional prototype being tested along with its BMW Z4 twin. Why wasn't this at least shown at the TAS? I always thought TAS was the main source where future production vehicles were showcased (along with other concepts, of course), but I guess there will always be those vehicles that just pop into production out of no where...
This thread made me intrigued/ excited, then doubtful, then angry, then disappointed, and now confused LOL talk about a mix of emotions.

Predictability and leaving the "excitement" out is not what Toyota want for the next supra... my guess I they do some grand entrance with that car to bring it back to life in a new body...
I'm thinking like transformers and the cars they introduced in that movie... maybe like the next Bond car or something along that line.

LA Auto Show - Toyota has a vehicle debut slotted according to the LA Auto Show website. Infiniti will debut the new QX80 there as well. Nissan has no vehicle debuts yet scheduled, but will have the 2018 370Z heritage edition on full display.

LA was where the 370Z debuted, so if there's any hope for a next gen Z, it will be the first week of December this year.

Another perplexing bit of information is nothing about a MY2018 GT-R. At all. Anywhere. The new model year GT-Rs have been released the summer before their respective calendar years every single year except this one. What's the deal?

The surprise may be the GTR with a new design and a $20,000 increase. Now jt will start where the track edition starts. $130,000 Cuz Nissan is delusional with every year that passes.

How about triple badge it. The "Heritage", The "10th" and the "Last Z".

I still don't know why we haven't gone to an electric car with a diesel generator.

What is old, will be new again. Given enough time. Nissan is getting their moneys worth out of the tooling for the Z.

10 year's running & plenty available part's (both oem & aftermarket)...You're able to build your ~Z~ into a supercar-if desired.
Recently seen 700-800+ whp made on pump 93 & e85....So the Horses can be Churned out; as long as you're willing to spend the time & $$$$.
As i live in SC & people know how the State Gov. loves to tax you every year on your property item's,,,it's cost effective to build up an older vehicle vs. purchasing a brand new one.
You have the option to insure it for whatever value you choose,
That's my reasoning for building my own Hot-Wheel's car & repairing my older vehicles vs. planning a future purchase of something new.
A Harley Trike could possibly fall into the picture over the next 3-4 year's.

We're talking, what, like $15K, for an AAM or FI TT kit to put me at a modest 500HP? I'd rather pay for that than a Sentra Nismo.

You're right Dirk, the Sentra Nismo IS one hot ride! However, I'm still holding out for the excellent, sporty and performance focused Nismo Versa! Yeah baby, NV!!!!



Sadly such a model wouldn't surprise me given how Nissan is generifying the Nismo name.
