This post claims the Z35 will use the CV37 Infiniti Q60 coupe platform, which is itself based on the same FM platform that started in in the 350Z/G35. In other words . . . this is gonna be a Z34.5

a long version of what we've all heard before, with history thrown in

I bet SPL is gonna love this. All their arms and crap are going to be easily adapted to yet another car

Mildly updated FM platform + VR30DETT + new front/rear end = 400Z
