So when did Nissan and Infiniti ever fit in the same style family? Since when was this about the Q50? Since when did your opinion matter? You troll all day proclaiming the Z sucks... You gonna go to an Infiniti forum and tell them how you feel too? Pretty sure they won't care either.

I love my Z and if it's more of the same, with evolutionary improvements, fine by me. It doesn't need an entirely new platform. The GTR's platform is called "Premium Midship" platform, which is just an improved version"Front Midship" platform. If the GTR can do what it does on similar underpinnings, it's not old or broken. The VQ motor is already getting over 30mpg in the Altima using port injection. I don't think it's unrealistic to anticipate 29-30 mpg with the upcoming Z. Weight will be similar and direct injection will improve fuel economy and increase performance. These are just my thoughts. I really think the entire platform can go another generation with improvements.
