Wether or not this may be the next Z it's a good bet, chances maybe the same as to flip of a coin.

Don't ever underestimate the stupidity of Nissan. I say that with a grain of salt. Why? Money. They could care less about "enthusiasts " with Z's. If it's not banking its scrapped. Don't blame them either.

^this ^ is what i had in mind, but those clips showing the 240 and all the talk around the internet about the next Z being a crossover really freaked me out

On the other hand, it doesnt make enough sense to change the Z in such a dramatic way.

We can speculate all we want, we will just have to wait and see

i think what they're going to do is put the new car on skinny-road bike tires.

cooltoy think the 370z can fit road bike rims?

is not the next Z... i read an article somewhere that said is the Juke replacement... is another crossover

Damn you Nissan for playing with our minds using a 240z in the teaser clip.

its not the juke replacement,everybody new it was a crossover, a Z crossover
"Klein did however say that the 370Z remains a success and Nissan had “no urgency” for a replacement, although he did say that “standard evolution is not best for this kind of product”. “We won’t see a 390Z or 400Z,” he said, as it “doesn’t make a lot of sense” in the current market."
