Not a new member, but I am a new 370z owner.
I bought my 370z recently although the speculation of a new model is all the place. My reasons was an acceptable weight, great engine, reasonable price and availability of aftermarket parts. Saying that, I wouldn't mind a turbo engine as it would mean higher capability for power plus a lighter chassis. But I have a thing for naturally aspirated engines and this was why I didn't wait.
Now about Z35, the positive of the rumours we have
- Weight less than current generation.
- Multiple power plants (means better market share).
- Cheaper.
The negatives:
- Mostly, new engines will have less power (I think Nissan will be satisfied with having the same performance level of 370z unlike us).
- Turbo? It has its good points but I would choose NA any day.
- I expect the bigger engines to be more expensive than current generation.
- Convertible only? I won't touch it at all.
On current information available, I can say Z35 is a no. Better keeping my 370z or going to Porsche. (Recently I tried the Carrera S, GT3 and Turbo S in the track, tbh I am trying to avoid splashing all my savings on the GT3, this machine is a monster
I will be a happy poor man lool)
Anyway, we will wait the Z35 hoping it will be better.
