400HP with a turbo motor will be a great starting platform, give the Z a chance against the Mustang/Camaro V8 crowd.

Also, the question of weight is going to come into play. I imagine the Z will see an increase like others to probably 3500 starting weight.
I love the new nismo front bumper. plus the look of that Q60 is just pure sex. so if that's the direction plus add in the Z is the performance side of the brand, I think there is miles of potential for the next Z.

but there's the million dollar question.....will Nissan go and make a Z that looks like and is powered by the same powerplant.

the engine I can see being used but not sure about the styling. makes me wonder if the new nismo bumper was just like their way of a small test of the direction of the next gen styling.

regardless fo rumors and speculation, I am very excited to see if and when the next gen info is released. just sucks nothing has been released yet like the Q60. makes me feel like there wont be a next gen Z until 2017MY
