My personal view for what I think the Z-35 could be:
We will probably see the engine packages that is in the new Infinite line up.
3.0 L, turbo charged and direct injector, this is direction most manufactures are taking to meet the new emissions and fuel standards.
Platform is good, this is great handling car for what it is.
Interior will get some up grades and still maintain the Z theme
As far as the body is concerned Nissan needs to a 100% more better than the patch job they did on the 15 Nismo. Nissan needs to bring in the "Wow Factor" like Ford did with the new Mustang.

I believe the media was pushing power over the senses. And pushing people to believe you can't have both in one car. The Z did fit that bill. But if you go on past threads here.you'll see a bunch of consumer drones falling into that hype, selling their Z and buying a mustang and a lightweight sports car. One did it and 20 followed. But one of them. Came back to a Z and in a personal message to me admitted the mustang had a lot of power, was lifeless n had no soul.

Unfortunately, the truth is the media has too much influence on the American people. And thank God for independent enthusiasts and unbiased Z reviews. Now the unmediafied truth is coming out.

There's two types of enthusiasts. The one that's looking for the car that stirs their soul the most.

And the one that wants to out-perform and out everything their neighbors. Those are the ones that fuel America's economy. They are the true consumers.
Well said

But...the people in here are dreaming to much. We are dreaming of power to weight ratios that even cars 3-4 times more expensive can't come close. Lol.

Be realistic, a 3100-3300 lb z with 450 horse at 45k? That's very unrealistic. We live in a day and age where safety comes first and more and more safety equipments are shoved into our cars, it's only going to get heavier. If the power to weight ratio people are asking for is so easily attainable at the price everyone wants.....

Acura/Honda would've done it to the NSX and not make it a giant 3800 lb 570 hp car. Lol. At the power to weight everyone is dreaming of, you guys can wipe the floor with a 180k super car with a moderate tune and mods. Lol. Be real guys...stop dreaming.

I don't see a full production model with warranty being produced with those numbers and price range. Hint.... Porsche GT4... 85k....2900 lbs 385 hp....dream big but be realistic.
I wouldn't say we are dreaming. They have talked specifically about making the Z lighter... Even if it stayed the same we would be talking 3200-3300 pounds and the V6TT motor VR30DTT with 400hp already exists. So 400hp and 3200 pounds isn't dreaming.

I'm sure years ago when the Mustang GT guys had a 305hp motor someone saying next year the engine will have 425hp... They would have all said no way that's exotic car horsepower... THen the engine drops in.


My guess is the Z will be around 3200 pounds and the motor will be increased slightly (415-420hp) as they always give the Z a little more power then the G/Q platforms. THis will be for V6TT model.
4 cylinder will probably have 240hp and weigh 2900 pounds and the Nismo version will have 440hp

i think it's dumb for anyone to tell anyone that they are wrong or that they are dreaming.

the fact is, no one in here knows anything. it's all speculation. i can speculate that the next Z will be on 26" rims and be a 4x4 and be gold plated. it's become like a b!tch fest in here. i'm right, you're wrong. enjoy what you got right now and worry about the next Z when and if it comes out.

you can bet it will have the Twin turbo 3.0 motor in it. Infiniti just released the specs on the new Q60. There is no way the Z wouldn't have that and the G/Q would. Even the Q50 sedans have it, and two options 300 HP and 400 HP, But we know that

I agree with you 100%. This is how I look at it from my perspective.

Huh?

Oh... you must have gotten that 800lbs from the weight difference between your beloved Porsche Cayman and the Camaro. Well... the Camaro SS already out-accelerates the GT4 with the extra 800lbs. But if you're really curious as to how that works out in your argument with a weight reduction, you'll be able to get a Z/28 with reduced weight for several thousand less than the GT4, and it will likely walk all over it.

For those of us in the room talking about evolving/redesigning an existing product, the Camaro SS of today shed roughly 300lbs from its previous model. It added 24hp and 35tq. That, along with some suspension revisions, translated to a half a second improvement on a 0-60 time, greater lateral acceleration, and better braking. It is also capable of dipping into the 11s on the quarter mile off the lot when the old model was in the high 12s. (WHAT?!) It also does this for a modest price increase of roughly $3,000 from the previous generation. I will save you some math, since that is hard - that is not even a 10% increase in price.

Now tell me, sir, what kind of ramen-noodle-eating, bud-light-drinking, money saving sorcery is this ****?! Please pinch me... I must be dreaming that a company can significantly upgrade and evolve their product and offer it at a competitive price point.

Ford reduced weight and added power on the Mustang. Mazda SIGNIFICANTLY reduced weight with the Miata and provided a more efficient engine, though down on power, and it translated into a faster car.

We can expect Nissan to do the same. We expect them to do so because they have the tools at their disposal to do so. Follow me into the toolbox below:

The Infiniti Q50 is based on the existing FM platform that upholds the Z and G coupes. It is retooled with lighter weight materials. It is now available with a 400hp twin turbo V6. It makes that power using a modest 14.7psi of boost. That motor produces not only 400hp, but an orgasmic 350lb-ft of torque across 1800-5200 RPMs! It's orgasmic because it's peak torque across a broad range. Feel free to google that whole "power under the curve" concept. Because, in most cases, that translates to BETTER PERFORMANCE.

Now, kids... what did we just learn about our toolbox? A lighter platform that is already built to house a higher performance engine! Both of which are in production! Guess what that means, kids? We have a more powerful business case! We may even be able to stick to a similar price point with our new model Z because... well, not only do we have the tools, but OUR COMPETITION IS ALSO DOING IT!

Why are we in business? TO COMPETE.

A 3100lb Z pushing 400 to 450hp for $45k is what we would call COMPETITIVE. FOR 2016. We aren't trying to be competitive in 1970. Gas isn't 86 cents a gallon. Apples don't cost a nickel. Oldsmobile doesn't make cars.

You can spend your $85k on a niche premium branded car that, despite what you may think, is a limited production car (examples are Cayman GT4, GT-R Nismo) and not what we refer to as a full scale production car (370Z, Camaro SS) and be slower than some other sports cars that cost less, but have a gorgeous, exclusive machine that can perform very well. Or, by your logic, buy a 1991 Ferrari Testarossa and be slower than everyone else on this board, but hey, you have a Ferrari, right? Nothing could possibly be faster for the money you spent - that **** was top of the line, state of the art! NO ONE WILL EVER MAKE THAT KIND OF POWER WITH LESS THAN A FLAT 12! YOU MUST BE DREAMING!

I would quote the rest of your posts and obliterate them accordingly, but I'm too busy dreaming. Wake me up later when I'm right.

I read the article and it could come as AWD but I highly doubt it as it is heritage that the Z is RWD. Also, they are joking for sure about FWD. lol
