Here is a post I found for all worried about a merc Benz engine in a nissan... it appears to be the other way around Nissan to build Mercedes engines in Tenn. plant | Autoweek
This is really a MERCEDES engine, being built at the Nissan plant, not a Nissan engine.
The plant produces a Daimler-designed engine out of engine blocks, heads and crankshafts imported from Germany.
The engines are assembled on a Nissan-designed production line that incorporates Daimler engineering processes.

i think the EPA should focus more energy on factories, smoke stacks, and those companies that dump neon green stuff that glows illegally.

Leave me and my combustion engine alone.

I should really rename my straight pipes to "freedom fighters" then right?

ww2 didn't stop germany from becoming a huge manufacturing power house it is today...

don't get me wrong... i think there are issues with the environment that need to be addressed. my problem is there are corporations / people / groups that game the **** out of the system and yet we as the consumer get punished.

i still don't buy that having a 2l FI'd engine with the same output as a 3.5L NA produces less emissions. i haven't seen any graphs/charts hooked up to the car while driving to prove this to me. just these bs ratings the company provides.

it's like getting stock pick advice off the internet. if it was such a great pick why are they posting about it instead of making the money?

when they are doing this out of self interest and not truely for the greater development of techonology there are problems.

EPA should probably be outright abolished (along with ATF, but that's neither here nor there), or at the very least severely curtailed.

Benz engines are solid. The other parts not mentioned will have Nissan tweaks. It's a great thing!!!

All this makes me glad I bought the used 2015 last week. It seems every time I get to liking a car, they change it.

You say this until the next Z comes out with a 350-400hp V6 Twin turbo

Every time something new is out or coming out a lot hate it, reminds me of the 2006 350Z headlights all were hating on then 2 months later it was the must have mod. THe 370z coming out all the 350Z guys saying its ugly, looks like a catfish you name it, then trading or selling their 350 to get a 370z haha

I'm not sure how you can hate what hasn't been created... And for that matter hasn't even really been given a solid spec on engine, exterior or price....

As I stated earlier, Mercedes blue prints

Nissan will not tarnish their reputation of solid built motors taking over Merc benz engines and being unreliable.

Have you guy seen the new QX30 and Q30? They are quasi-Mercedes too, and they have the god awful tachometer and speedometer to prove it lol:



This era of amazing interiors and gauge clusters and this is what you present?!
