I'm feeling a little more hopeful.....just a little.

And here's another:

Still a bit skeptical about Nissan giving the green light until it's confirmed directly from Nissan themselves.

This is the same thing they said around this time last year... so I'll believe it when I see it.

The most cost-logical thing they can do is platform share with the Q50/Q60 and rinse and repeat. AMS has demonstrated that they have a lot of headroom in the new VR30DDTT (they just dynoed around 800whp in their project Q60), so if they made a 450hp version of the Z to properly slide it against things that compete within the target price range (Camaro, Mustang... I know the Z isn't those cars but for the money it is going to draw those as alternatives, and Nissan knows that, and Nissan needs conquest sales for a next gen Z), it's doable and there's a decent business case for it.

I don't know where all the Mercedes BS is coming from... they don't need Mercedes to do any of this. At most, they make a bottom-tier trim like the Q60 that plucks that garbage Mercedes 2.0 turbo with its garbage transmission, but that's it. They don't need anything else from Mercedes.

Lol I told you guys Z news would heat up again in 2018, then die again...as for that autocar website, what those idiots don’t know is that the Tokyo Motor Show only happens on odd years, I seriously(hopefully) expect that they release a concept next summer.

400Z apparently just green lighted. Q50 and Q60 doppleganger

Kaizoku · 03-19-2018, 07:29 PM

Is this real or what?

I read this also hopefully it's not just another false rumor. Fingers crossed, although it will most likely be out of my price range.

cooltoy · 03-19-2018, 07:57 PM

3.0 L - shouldn't be called 300Z? Oh wait - we've been there already.

Kaizoku · 03-19-2018, 08:07 PM

Can we just get a marijuana powered 420z?

And it would be legal in Canada.
