When can we expect news on the 2012 Z?

OtaconZ · 04-20-2011, 05:31 PM

Hey guys, the lease on my 370 is up in a few months and I would like to buy it out. However, if the 2012 Z is improved I might just pick up one of those instead. I was hoping news of the 2012 would be released at the NY auto show, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. Does anyone know when we can expect news on the 12s?

Thanks

I was thinking NY auto show as well.....oh well.

Honestly, it depends on whether there is news. I don't believe Nissan will be making any major changes, so it probably won't come out through an auto show.

aren't they doing a "GT" version.

other than that there will be very little. I expect 2012 to be the last year for the Z for a couple...

Eh, fortunately for the value of all of our cars. We could be like all those people with the DE 350z's...

I called Nissan North America yesterday, the rep told me the 2012 should be out sometime in September. From what i read, the 2012 is supposed to have better suspension, quieter cabin, and not be so coarse as you approach the redline. I know this is for the European version, but i don't see why here in America we wouldn't get the same revisions. New Car: 2012 Nissan 370Z (EU) - CbcNewsReport.com - CbcNewsReport.com

Not sure. I know the date of the article was April 1st of this year.

Production for the currecnt model year usually stops around the third week of June. Expect some news in August since there was some kind of disaster in Japan that may slow down retooling and production.

So its just another car feel then?
