Changing, sure. But until they pry my Z steering wheel out of my cold dead fingers, my Z will never die. Or until I am no longer able to source parts for it.
Rhetorical question. (I guess it's a bit early for such discussion ) I don't, however, from what I've read on this forum, many seem to think so.

It's group think. Sports cars are alive and well, just not at Nissan...

You felt the need to start the thread for a rhetorical question?

6spd nailed it. Nissan isn't too interested in sports cars any more it seems. But there are others who are and are doing well

I understood what you posted just fine. You made a statement and then posed a follow up question as though to elicit a completely contradictory response and then called it rhetorical. What I didn't understand is why you posted it. You didn't have to take it as an attack because it certainly wasn't intended as one.

Frankly, I'd love to drive a car that does 0-60 in 1.9 secs. I was hoping you'd provide more details on it. I'm too lazy to search **edit** I guess it's just the new roadster .. so not really a new model
