This was the Nissan rumour that made me barf in my mouth every night. Thank the Car God that this is in black and white. Just a few days ago they were writing about EV Z's and GT-R's. Maybe Ghosn being fired saved this car? Who knows? Who cares? Just give us a smaller, lighter GTR with either the same power or more?

Now Nissan. Bare us some fruit!!!
We're waiting!!!

Woulda been really nice to see a hybrid system, but that likely would have inflated the price even further. I remember back when GT-R's could be had loaded AF for 5 figures.

Looks like Nissan wants to go the chevy route and build a mid engine?

This will probably be more of a mc laren competitor in price. If it ever comes out. Nissan playing games. Not even sure they deserve the purchase. Lol.

Funny how GM can make a $<60K mid-engine car that does 0-60 in under 3 seconds in base trim, and Nissan would need McLaren money, eh?

actually 15 min after i posted that, an article came out saying the Z drops next year.

sooooooo idk maybe my 2 year release is off. no official word yet. i am watching live updates of the show though.

every new model and facelift shown for nissan so far lines up with info i was given months ago so i am a bit optimistic.

Who me? Hate? On a GTR? LOL.
Why u take it so personal? I just found a video n thought it was crazy... maybe u right? Or maybe that new Nissan 3.0l has a lot of untapped potential?

The Q60 was trash in most ways EXCEPT the engine. That engine is screaming for a better chassis, transmission & suspension. I can see someone in a straight line getting amazing potential out of one.
The GTR is a an amazing car. Just old and fat. I don't hate it. I just want a new one as round cuz I'm tired of the old one already. Just like the Z.

i like to argue. you present opportunity not a personal battle.

also, yes engine is amazing. q platform is trash aside from AWD being an option.

new Z will be here in 2 years with the VR30DETT engine and i assume they wont screw up the chassis/suspension....i hope.

also i would enjoy a good body design. could be the factor that sways me one way or another on buying the next Z.

Would be nice if it came with a manual.

If they do the right thing and pair it with a DCT? The Z will be crazy! If they still use that jatco like with the Q60? It will be a disappointment.

Agreed. They need to move to a dct even though it falls in line with the gtr especially with the engine but it’ll still be half the price and 2wd smaller lighter etc.

I am betting that it will have the new 9 speed that debuted in the Titan this year.

The new 2020 Nissan Titan and Titan XD should certainly be a excellent quality build and superior in it’s class still keeping the reliable/dependable 5.6L V8 power plant 400hp/413tq Nissan claims impressive. The Titan should really benefit from the 9 speed transmission I think it will be a better unit from previous years and an improvement/upgrade. Also plenty of towing power and fuel efficiency. If I was considering a truck the Nissan Titan or Titan XD would be on the top of my list.

I have an 8 speed in my Coupe and its about two too many driving in the city with speeds below 40mph. Always searching for a gear. Sport mode solves that problem but still...
