Glad I got my Passion Red 2020 when I did; feels great to have the final model year.

Don't be silly, gas only cars are going to be banned. There is no more endless supply of gas, M/T sports cars; time to hoard for my expected lifetime. I will be buying a 400Z and KEEPING my 370Z.

The guy who wrote that article is an idiot.

"While 370Zs ride on 20-inch wheels, the Proto rides on 19-inch wheels." He didn't do his research.

It's just a collection of old clickbait jumbled together

It even links to the "test mule at the ring"

Don't worry, there is enough in the oil sands to last several generations.

Lol, probably the biggest attempt I have seen in taking something out of context.

No more gas Corvette after 2035:

Yes there is! Unfortunately, tree huggers will do whatever it takes to keep it in the ground.

The truth is that there aren’t enough natural resources in the world to manufacture the number of batteries required to replace even half of today’s ICE cars. Unless we give up our cars for bicycles

, ICE cars will still be around for a long time, using extremely efficient and clean burning engines.

I'm not worried about oil, they'll never stop growing corn and ethanol isn't hard to make

With the way Nissan is struggling financially and trying to re-invent itself, I will believe it when I see it. I wouldn't be surprised one bit if the 400Z never sees the light of day. Remember the Nissan IDX proto (510) a few years back? It was paraded all over the world as a sure thing to be released very soon. Never happened.

huge difference between building a completely new car and a mild refresh of an old chassis with parts already on the shelf. It's more Z34.5 than Z35

You both have points... but Nissan has fvcked up the most basic of things. Gives Cyber_370 credibility.

very true. I even said somewhere in the Z35 thread that the Z was more likely to get shelved for a few years before getting a new one if we even see one.

But even with the turmoil going on I think this refresh is cheap enough to make it to production.

If the put out the z35 in 2017, the idx in 2016. Kept the juke 180hp inside that tiny kicks, and used DCT like hyundai. Nissan would have sold more of everything. They wouldn't be in this situation.
