a lot has changed since that video though...

The iDX got cancelled. The FRS didn't do that well (fair for me to say, I DD one). I've been out of the G/Z scene for awhile (sold my 04 back in 2010ish). But I am gonna take a wild guess and say the Z will be akin to this...?...

I sincerely hope it doesn't take too many styling cues from this because it isn't my cup of tea. But the engine sounds like a natural progression... V6TT to make it relateable to the GTR at 400hp, but not encroaching on Nissan's halo car prowess...

The one thing I hope that they take away from the iDX + FRS + oldschool Datsun "anniversary" idea is lighter weight. I drift now and I realize how heavy my G was and what a big difference that makes. Straight line is great but I hope that the handling is drastically improved.
