A 2 seater and 2+2 model on the nissan name. I see the G37 taking on its own identity seperate from the later ZX models. I see these ZX models starting at $45k goin up to $70k.
Sounds kinda like history will repeat itself in my prediction huh. Lol
Expect the Z to go upmarket again and a new silvia type car to be the 30 to 40k car.
I doubt the Z-car will go upmarket, because that along with the overvalued yen is what killed the Z32. I think Nissan and all the other Japanese car manufacturers learned their lessons from the mid 90's.

You know why the 300ZX had an "X" right? It implied "luxury." This deviated from the original concept of 'affordable sports car' that Datsun intended for Z-car enthusiasts.
