i have a pretty solid source that passed along the info that they have it, it's solid, final design not locked in yet but it does have the 3.0TT.

i believe this source and the info. timeline is what i'm uncertain of.

i do believe they wanted to finish out the Z and GTR on the milestones this year. then they will drop new bodies/platforms as a new era.

I find the 3.0TT to be fairly believable, and everyone knows it's past time for a new Z, but I'd also be surprised if they find a way to release it profitably. I'm hopeful but not expectant.

last few quotes i saw was they know its a niche car and dont really care since their other sales are good. but they would like to bump the numbers to be top of the market segment.

Turbo's will last a long time with today's technology. Ever since they went
water cooled center sections they will last over 100k miles easy. The oil technology has also improved greatly.

if there is another Z i hope it's 1-2 years out.

i can get one at launch or after the year one kinks are ironed out.

now, i will say the VQ was released before the Z to iron out issues in the G.

now the VR has been out 2-3 years strong so it could be time.

No, back in the day you did good to get to 80k miles before the turbo bearings went. Now days, you can go well over 100k before you see any failures. Everything fails over time. Just the way it is. Warranty period is 5yrs/60,000 miles or something like that. If you are basing your purchase off a warranty I got some crap in a bag I will sell you with a warranty to boot.
