Well folks, the 370 was leaked a few months before its debut. I think it was Nov or Dec of 2008. They were "released" for sale Feb of 2009. So I would assume that Nissan will let the cat out the bag about 3 months prior to the Z35's release....They don't do it 6 months or earlier....because they don't want to give potential customers anxiety, because it's like a double edged sword: If the diehard Z people are anxiously awaiting its release, they don't want to disappoint them by any sort of delays e.g. bugs, underdevelopment, potential safety recalls, etc. Or, if it's those people who never owned a Z i.e. pretty much those who aren't loyal to any make, they will veer towards a different car if that one is better than the new Z. In other words, they don't want to give diehard Z people blueballs, but are also afraid of getting upstaged by another automaker.
So when the Z35 is leaked, you can assume its release will be about 3 months later.
