[OFFICIAL] Discussion for the next new Nissan 400Z Z35?

1. It will be debuted in 2018

2. It will weigh about the same and cost about the same as current offering.

3. It will come it at least three trims (not counting targa or verts): Regular, Sport, Nismo. A fourth tier, Nismo Turbo is possible, assuming it isn't simply the only "Nismo" badged option, which is quite likely.

4. Expect overall performance across the board to be a bit better than it's advertised for the Q60, in a proportionate degree to the current difference.

Naturally, the boosted option will have lots and lots of aftermarket potential. If you plan to boost, just buy that one and lump the extra cost up front, rather than boosting the N/A motor -- less blown engines.

5. Without starting a whole debate over "sports car purity" or whatever, expect all tiers to have a 7-AT option, and all but the base to have a (viscous) LSD.
