The Infiniti G and Q Coupes are basically 2+2 ZX's. Makes sense why Nissan decided to go back to Z for Y2K....

I think Z32's are more luxurious than the upcoming Z. Ignoring the typical push of modern progress, the intent for luxury in the Z32 era was greater than the upcoming Z. The Z32 had trick AC controls on the binnacle, option for back seats, leather and T-tops and it stood out against other cars in the market. The modern Z35 has nothing an Altima won't already have....aside from a serious approach to performance.
Yes I agree the modern Q60 is the hard fork from the Z32 2+2.

About the T-tops, with the reliability issues the Z34 Roadster faced, a Japanese source stated that this time for the Z35, Nissan was considering some sort of targa removable roof panel to debut in the 2nd or 3rd model year instead of a retractable roof roadster model.
