The new Nissan's arent boring or bland, but they arent exactly striking either. So far what we have seen from Infinity is scary.

Plus the new Infiniti's have no new powerplants.. bleh.

when the new bodystyle for the current g37 sedan came out, it had the carryover HR motor in it and the next year when the coupe came out, they renamed the sedan (and coupe) g37 b/c the new 3.7 was in it (and the Z).

I wouldn't be surprised if the new Q50 or whatever the g replacement is called gets a new powerplant options for '14 when the new coupe comes online and that should give us a good hint at what may be powering the Z35 which should debut around '15.

From Avis, yes... From Hertz... NO!

The Chevy's are all shiftable on Tapshift which is fun. The Mustang no unless you get the 12 or 13, for rental, But Hertz has the exclusive Black and Gold Mustang Shelby GT, also a manual. They have manual corvettes as well. I haven't rented a manual Camaro yet but did the manual Corvette. I will rent the Shelby Gt500 one day? It's hard to get. You gotta reserve far ahead for it and there are no specials. pricey too... The 5.0, vette and camaro go on special all the time.

I sure hope so

The hatch is awesome. Tons of space.

I feel like it will be if you take out the spare. but otherwise it looks similar to the Z in rear storage.

It looks like it's a bit more space than in the Z. Definitely enough to be a decent DD.

No, thats similar to the current corvette trunk. It has a lot of room back there. I've rented them. The vette is a bigger car than the Z inside and out.

m4a1mustang · 01-26-2013, 12:31 PM

The behind nav storage is really trick. That's awesome!

brucelidat · 01-26-2013, 01:22 PM

looks like a great performance value, but still out of my price range. Hopefully, the next Z will be pretty nice

Jasonle · 01-26-2013, 05:05 PM

took some pictures at the car show in St. Louis. ZR1. Besides the zr1..i Didn't see the new one with the back lookin like the camero?

FPenvy · 01-27-2013, 02:41 PM

So I had a thought this morning and idk if anyone has touched on it but any word on a launch control in the new vette?

They have Synchro Rev Match. why not?

bigdog1250 · 01-27-2013, 04:16 PM

^ I'm sure it will have it, at least in the automatics. It's 2013 for gosh sake and they are looking to compete on all levels.
