Hopefully Nissan has learned from Toyota's example, the A80 Supra. Toyota over-priced that car and in dollar equivalents it would have matched the GTR price tag in its day. Speaking of the new Supra, I would think that Nissan will have an answer to Toyota's new car. I'm thinking that it all comes down to price point too and which target market you feel has the best chance for sucessful sales. Looking at some of the pics of the new Toyota (with a mechanical rear wing!), I would say that their car would be much higher $$$ that a revamped Z. It would make better sense for Nissan to use the Infiniti Q50 V-6 engine (405hp).

I love my 2015 white Nismo Tech AT and can hardly wait to start adding some "goodies" (i.e.: Resonators, Cool intake, oil cooler). But I will be sitting on the sidelines wondering & salivating about the next Z. Just have to wait a little longer, won't we? Happy driving everyone
