End of an Era - There is no 2021 370Z

Cyber370

You may be right but, Nissan would've probably built the IDX alongside the 370z in the same plant because of the front-engine rear drive configuration. It wasn't that much of a stretch as far as setup and tooling costs were concerned since it was probably going to be based on a shortened or slightly modified 370Z chassis. Furthermore, people absolutely went crazy for the IDX proto and it was even featured on Jay Leno's Garage. This was supposed to be the "New" Nissan and an indication of great things to come. Well, we all know what the cancellation of that car did to Nissan's image.

Per recent reports, the main reason they cancelled the project was because Nissan did not think there was any money to be made with another low-cost front-engine, rear drive sports car in a segment dominated by the Toyota 86 and Miata. Sound familiar? What will the bean counters decide with the Z this time. There is even more competition including the Mustang, Camaro, Supra to name a few. Don't get me wrong, I hope they build it but we will see what happens.
