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

SINISTER

Humanity in general is fake ...so why not fake news?
Steroids, plastic surgery, nepotism, materialism, self worth = your net worth, racism, politically correct, not what you know its who you know, rich kids acting like they "earned it", Hollywood in general ...etc etc.
Were historically proven to be insane, and the fungus of the earth...

Back to the thread...60k for a Z? Only if it can do quarter in under 12 seconds.....

ChaseZ

The next one is going to have to be a 12 second car off the lot just to be competitive

chubbs

...and that's just the people in the White House. Heaven help the rest of us.


Yes, it definitely needs to be 0-60 in sub 4 seconds.

I agree with both sides. It makes no sense Nissan would make an announcement and suddenly a month later it doesn't happen. But then again. Mazda does it all the time with the RX-9!!!

Point is made when they stated that it came straight from the horses mouth that there's an air of hope for a Z to come out but things are still up in the air... Maybe he's eluding us? Maybe there's some truth?

What I've learned is... Nissan PR sucks balls. Nissan is inconsistent and their version of creating excitement for the Z is more prone to drive away enthusiasts than actually generate them. It's the worst PR of any car company.

Don't even get me started on Mazda. I'm a former third gen RX-7 owner and super modaholic when it came to that car. Imagine your Z with 600hp and 1000 fewer pounds to haul around. I'd get my hopes up with every rumor only to be let down time and time again. I think, maybe, I gave up. Last week. I kid but I don't give it any credence at this point and I moved on some time ago. It's a bad, bad experience. Hope the Z/G/Q guys don't have to go through the same thing.

I owned two Gen 1 RX-7's back in the day.

Frankly, if the RX-7 ever came back as real sports car, not that three-door abomination we last saw, I wouldn't even be on a Nissan forum.

I loved those cars!

I'm a former FD owner so I understand... clearly.



Nissan stopped selling the Z here in mid late 90's but it kept selling in Japan till the 350z debuted.

I dont ever see the Z being completely killed off. As long as Nissan is around theyll be a Z in the line up or in very near future line ups. The model is an icon, damn near level icon status of Mustangs in my opinion. Sure, Ford has NEVER had a Mustang hiatus ( I think) but oh my God, they did put out some awful, embarrassing vehicles. IMO no Z has EVER been embarrassing.

If they killed the Z it wouldn't be the first time.

Hiatus and kill off are different. Z has seen a hiatus, never killed off. Supra has seen hiatus, NSX has..etc. Maybe the Z35 needs some time to percolate, like the z33 did? Way too much history for it to be killed off forever IMO.

Keep in mind that the ss Camaro is around 10k more than the base 370Z and the Mustang GT at least 5k more. For that money, you could do some serious aftermarket work and have a much more unique and exciting car. In my opinion Nissan provides an excellent base platform for which their are many intriguing mod options. Personally I'd rather build a beast piece by piece than drive one off the lot.

What about Toyota killing off the Supra and Mazda killing off the RX rotary. They were all icons for those manufacturers. It didn't matter in the end. And by the way, the Mustang basically did die in the 70's and was replaced with a Pinto. Sure the name was still there but they were nowhere near to being a Mustang. If Nissan were to decide to make a new Z based on an SUV or CUV, then they would basically killing the Z.

LOL, from a marketing perspective their media efforts are working because they are keeping the Z relevant and at the forefront of its enthusiast. Fake news or not we have taken the bait hook, line and sinker because we are hopeful and we don't want Nissan to follow Mazda's lead.
