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

*J*ap***V*et* · 09-15-2020, 08:04 PM

I like it!! I just don't love it....

Rusty · 09-15-2020, 08:05 PM

I'm hoping the Nismo version looks better. Hoping they keep the 6/4 brake calipers. I like the rims.

Andaesthetics · 09-15-2020, 08:05 PM

In video I will say it looks slightly better. The side profile looks good for sure. The front grille NEEDS to be redesigned though. The rear isn't dreadful, but it doesn't look like a sports car when looking at it behind. Too blocky.

Looks like they just put a new skin on the current model.

That said, I kinda like it.
The front is a little weird but the rest is definitely an improvement, especially the interior.

It's seems that chrome "Katana sword" is here to stay, not just a bad dream.

danegrey · 09-15-2020, 08:10 PM

too much talk on design and not much on specs........ not sure.....
left me going is oh.... maybe it will look better in person.... but come on, what are the specs

OCPanther · 09-15-2020, 08:12 PM

I'm thinking the same thing.

I have not made any comments in this thread. After watching the reveal, here are my thoughts.

The manual is awesome of course.

Trips · 09-15-2020, 08:14 PM

I approve!

Nissan needs to take a lesson from Andreas Preuninger or Gordon Murray on a proper unveiling.

Winner.....winner......chicken dinner. There is not much wrong with the 370Z frame structure. It's a little porky, but it's stiff. The rear camber curve needs changed.

optiontrader · 09-15-2020, 08:20 PM

I really like it - my only reservation on the exterior is the grille; but I'm sure the aftermarket will take care of us. Love the interior; was not expecting a virtual dash.

Providing the performance is as we expect (300/400hp, manual [obviously included - yay], and nicely tuned handling), I may really consider dropping into a new Z instead of my original plan of a used Lotus (used, and twice the price...).

Rusty · 09-15-2020, 08:22 PM

If the under pinning isn't changed too much from the 370Z. This will be a tuner's dream. As some parts from the 370Z will fit. I see a lot of bumpers being made for it.

This is one of the most clumsy release events that I’ve ever watched.
I hope the quality of this release doesn’t speak to the quality of the car.
Almost an hour so far on “the heritage”. Please kill me now.
