The iDX got cancelled. The FRS didn't do that well (fair for me to say, I DD one). I've been out of the G/Z scene for awhile (sold my 04 back in 2010ish). But I am gonna take a wild guess and say the Z will be akin to this...?...

2017 Infiniti Q60 Luxury Coupe | Infiniti USA

I sincerely hope it doesn't take too many styling cues from this because it isn't my cup of tea. But the engine sounds like a natural progression... V6TT to make it relateable to the GTR at 400hp, but not encroaching on Nissan's halo car prowess...

The one thing I hope that they take away from the iDX + FRS + oldschool Datsun "anniversary" idea is lighter weight. I drift now and I realize how heavy my G was and what a big difference that makes. Straight line is great but I hope that the handling is drastically improved.
I would hope that 400hp v6 is our high end engine. I believe the grip Z is the vehicle where you can find future Z styling cues from. People are speculating the "Z" will be a lineup of cars. A 2 Seater, 4 Seater, roadster and crossover. I only have interest in the two Seater.

It is said there will be a 4ChL turbo option. I'm only interested in a 400/450hp Nismo.

It's said it will have a Targa model too. Kool.

It is said it will have a starting price that's lower. Probably on the 4 cyl to compete with FRS.

They said the new gen Z35 will be a departure from being the Q series brother. Maybe Z and GTR will become more closely related.

They said they have no plans of KILLING THE Z or GT-R lineup. Ever!!!

We've been getting a lot of information. Kind of like how Mr. Myagi taught Daniel-San Karate that appeared to have a Kung Fu philosophy. Lol. He didn't know he was learning till Mr Myagi said... "Show me, sand the floor", "show me paint the fence" But Danielsan needed to learn Karate in 2 months. And we are itching to drive Nissan's next iteration.

For this Z34, I was married and trying to be a good husband. Only able to be a part time enthusiast. I'm single now n I'm dying for a Z35 to immerse myself into the culture again ABD hit up all the events. I love Nissan Z's Rx 7's n Supra's. I'd love to see them come back. Even the Mitsubishi conquest was sick and was the inception to modern day Tuning. It deserves its spot as the founder of computerized turbo technology. People are quick to forget that kool ride.

I just want Nissan to show us some respect though. 2017 could at least have a soft touch dash n door uppers with the foglight as standard. And I'd be like. OK, it's something. Just like the Nismo was.... but the engine in the nismo isn't deserving of its price by $4,000.
