Did not know this. Remind me not to buy another Nissan
I think the Mercedes thing is for the low end, like 4 cylinder engines and what what, maybe even diesel tech since Nissan needs to get into that quickly to compete with the euro TDI offerings and more American diesel cars FINALLY coming to America after being in Europe forever!

They just need to upgrade the GT-R engine to something newer, give the new Z the old engine as tried a true, 380z TT and sell it for 50k starting price with a singe clutch auto and around 500HP (so clearly detuned).
