I’d bet we see the car officially next year (maybe early next year) and car available early ‘22.

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

Not happening from my source. He just shook his head and said it will be rhe weakest link in speaking to the auto.

The way news was moving. It looked like this year. But since its not. When you start seeing camo Z's on track... it should be 6 months later production begins. If history serves correct.

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.

They are not to make the Z a little GTR lol. They history is to stay with what works for that platform. Until they make a wholesale change with the Infinity line they are not doing anything different with the Z.
