But it's also on an existing platform, using an engine they've used in the Q50/60 for a few years, and probably has a ton of parts carrying over.
That's the only way it would be financial viable. Especially in Nissan's current financial state.
If Toyota is doing the same, that they had to partner up with bmw and Toyota said it would cost to much for them to build a new sports car, than nissan doesnt have a chance to build a new sports car.
Unless they partnered with another company like Mercedes or something.


I'll be in my bunk!
