But perhaps like Dustin said, a small 6 cylinder rather than a big 6. The car could def use some weigh lose. Nissan does worry me though when they want the next Z to widen up the customer base: meaning they are looking to make the car more practical with a 4 seater. I'm not a big fan of that at all because that's what the G37 is for.

Is it true that they may not make a new GT-R? I think Nissan at this point has not given any green light for R&D to start the development nor is it in the plan. They said they are putting more emphasis on this next Z.
It seems to me they will be retrying the Z32 formula without selling out 240z roots. which may be interesting??? As long as v6/v6tt options are avail

That means they would offer both 2 and 4 seater versions. Infiniti already said 2 years ago that they will be swaying away from the fairlady and skyline kinship. They will be two separate cars altogether in the future.

My main concern... with the yen and dollar going in two different directions, AGAIN!!! we better buy the Z35 in the first two years. Otherwise, we may see a $20,000 jump over 6 years just like the Z32. Sometimes I think these economic destabilizations are rigged purposely between gov'ts and corporations.

The GT-R... I think it will be a JDM only car again after 2014.
