Yeah...... totally.

I get it's just a rendering of what it might look like. But if they want to out do bmw supra, they will need a bit more of a pop.
Of course lay down the right amount of power.

I mean... 2023 release? I'm not gonna wait that long for a Z. Hopefully when they do drop it? I'm praying they'll give the Z a deserving transmission?

I'll just bid the waiters enjoyment and I'll be a fan from the sidelines.

it'll be out next fall unless more rona nonsense hurts things.

however, if it looks like that i may pass. i already have a nissan with a TT V6 lol

i'll wait to see the Z06 C8 or just stick with the plan for a mclaren.

A few articles came out yesterday claiming a fall 2022 reveal. Sales for 2023... I agree about its looks. Ive been struggling with that since it came out. The Q60 looks waaay better, but that transmission has to go. The 2008 g37 had the same problem. But at least back then Nissan went from 5 speed to 7 speed in 2009. So far im really digging my camaro's performance. So maybe ill get a used red sport. Do you think the GTR DCT would fit in the Q60RS? If it did.. would it have to be an AWD model?

the GTR DCT wouldnt work without a new chassis. well i cant say for sure but based on the design and being rear mounted in the GTR i'm just assuming there would be placement and engineering challenges to make it work under a Z.

It will work. It depends on how much money Nissan wants to throw at it.

Not the Z. The q60. So the GTR is not an FM platform vehicle?

sunkist350z · 08-28-2020, 12:18 AM

I like the rear reminds of the Ferrari 812 super fast.

NissanFreak81 · 08-28-2020, 06:56 AM

Not waiting that long. Guess I will be moving onto something else.

God-Speed · 08-28-2020, 07:01 AM

Oh Crap.

Those articles are basically the same (sourced). I don’t believe the ‘23 date is accurate. There is a Nissan insider and a person that works for a Nissan supplier that both say production starts in 9/21.

If this were a new chassis, I could see a delay. The new car will use the existing chassis, a current engine and drivetrain so hard to see how it would be delayed.
