True. But the Z34 was revealed in Nov 2008, and released Feb 2009. So they let you know 4 - 6 months in advance. That's just my train of thought.

A lot of you are decrying an "upmarket" move. But you forget, that the Z32 TT was that upmarket move 26 years ago. The Z32 was Nissan's 3rd or 4th iteration of the Z car, and it was time to make that...

Well folks, the 370 was leaked a few months before its debut. I think it was Nov or Dec of 2008. They were "released" for sale Feb of 2009. So I would assume that Nissan will let the cat out the bag...

$60K is not a lot of money for a brand new luxury car these days. It's not cheap, but it sure isn't expensive.

The Z through all its generations never had a dud like the Mazda RX8; the late 90s to early 2000s Mustangs (even the 4.6 wasn't all that then); the Eclipse after they did away with the turbo motor;...

No. It is because the r32gtr wasn't allowed into the US then, hence the z32tt being nissans flagship sportscar then. I am aware that the s30 was meant to be an affordable no frills sportscar, and a...

That was towards the end of the Z32's run, but specifically the mid 1990s because the japanese yen was too expensive in exchange rate to USD. All the twin turbo Japnese sports cars suffered the same...

The Z32 TT was a $35,000 car in 1990. That's 1.03^26 = 2.15; 2.15 x $35,000 ~ $70,000 in 2016 money. The Z32 TT price was unprecedented, especially for a Japanese sports car then. But people were...

I'm sure tuners will find a way around it. Maybe not soon, but in a year or two.

Well, now that it's confirmed that the q50 has the v6tt with 3/400 hp, rest assured that z35 will share that same engine. 12 sec 1/4's all day, no more "I'm going Mustang, Camara because Z isn't...

Well, it's most certain that the next Z will be turbocharged. These Infiniti coupes are essentially cousins to the Z.

Back to the Z32 TT days! Turbo, big boost, and 500 hp no problem!!

The Z32 TT was a $60K car in 1990 dollars. It jumped 2 steps (in terms of price, image, performance) above the Z31. I think the Z32 TT merited the price jump. It was a competitor to the C4 Vette back...

Not everybody wants a straight line muscle car. Some people want a more balanced approach such as handling, braking, etc. I'm not saying the Mustang can't do these, but it seems that it puts more of...

$60,000 is not a lot of money for a brand new, hipo car that pushes at least 400 hp. $100,000 is the "new expensive."
