2014 390z
 
Just receive the May issue of Playboy yesterday and read the next “generation Z” will be a 2014 390Z. I get all the car magazines and do not recall any of them ever mentioning a 390Z! Maybe the secret was revealed in the “Grotto”!!

It will still be 3.7 au natural.

Since this is Playboy the articles must follow the lead of the models and photoediting department and always be enhanced.

:icon18: WOW......... Well every five years a new model comes out. The 370Z & G37 came out in '08. So it would make sense that the '14 would be something different possibly.

MattP725 04-24-2012 11:13 AM

I call BS... no one pays for p@rn anymore... especially not print type.

yellogixxer 04-24-2012 11:20 AM

Yeah, I'll have to borrow my wife's issue of Playboy and check it out.

I really like the photo of the 390Z from woodyscarsite.com………. might be the time to trade in my 370ZR

Those sketches of a new Z body style being running around for a long time now.

Jordo! 04-24-2012 02:30 PM

I saw that too and was like, "Whaaaa...?"

Other than the concept sketch, no other info? Not even rumor?

Regarding the article, I think the Z cars were like number 17 in the top 25 best cars ever. Something like that.

Every 6 years, not 5.

03 04 05 06 07 06. I see 6 years for the 350z. So that articles is a crock o shyyyyt. Lol

The G 37 debuted 1 year before the Z.

Mt Tam I am 04-24-2012 04:36 PM

I doubt the 2014 390Z will be produced. If I am wrong, hoo-ray. I just hope the Z car will continue in any traditional form.

UNKNOWN_370 04-24-2012 04:49 PM

None of the future engines that Nissan has patented is a 3.9. It will either be a 2.5 supercharged (which I doubt) a 3.0 and/or 3.0TT(most likely. Or a hybrid 3.7? Which I can equally see happening.

The 2.5sc I think will bring forth the Datsun Silvia. :) just my guess.

I can actually see nissan dropping the numbers and calling iit the Nissan Z and bringing forth all engines as options in different price ranges... you never know?

It would make the most sense for a 3.0TT to meet price, performance, packaging and fuel economy goals for the next generation where the hybrid option seems to be one more generation out if they continue with the Z that far. I just don't see a hybrid system fitting all of the above goals for a sports car like the Z quite yet.

First I think we're going to see a lot more turbo's and SCs across the board for sportier cars that attempt some claim to fuel economy, then hybrid versions later. Hybrid technology is getting better but it's not quite ready for mainstream sports car applications. The Fisker Karma and Porsche Panamera hybrid are paving the way however.

chrischhorn 04-25-2012 10:30 AM

The new Ford Mustang is suppose to be goin to a 2.5 Turbo so if that doesn't show the way the trend is goin then i dunno what will.......

Z more than likely won'te be going the 3.0tt route. that has been "somewhat" leaked to the public with this

People get Playboy still?

JARblue 04-25-2012 10:44 AM

I heard the next gen Z is going to be combo electric/diesel :rolleyes:

( Click to show/hide )
... with an option for a miata door upgrade :bowrofl::roflpuke2:

ProfessorDave 04-25-2012 10:46 AM

A Z with implants?!? I don't think so :shakes head:

:icon17:

twinturbonet 04-25-2012 10:56 AM

Nah, I heard from my cousin's friend's brother's aunt who said that the new Z will have the same body as the Z34 but with a cardboard picture of a motor!

:facepalm:

I was just going off of the quoted post. Let me revise my statement... it would make the most sense that if there is a significant change in power plants for the next gen Z, FI would make the most sense given the Z's competition.

LakeShow 04-25-2012 11:28 AM

That V6TT patent is for that 100k+ Infiniti they are building. Z shall remain N/A V6 as it has been for a majority of its 40 year run.

We have to search in all the latest porn magazines so we can find some more information on the new Z. Maybe we should also check porn sites and videos also for more information on the new Z.

:icon18:....... Well that is going to be a very very slow & sticky process there big guy. You might get stuck on one site & one pic/video for quite some time. We will need back-up on this one FOR SURE. Lets break this down & be team players here.

The next generation of Z's hopefully will have a lot more power (supercharger, turbo or TT), beefed up suspension, 20's, bigger/better brakes & all around a bada** BEEEEEOUTCH.

:confused:

03-13 are the only years that an n/a v6 was the only option.


69-83: inline six [that is 14 years]
84-96(99): v6tt available [that is 12 years, depending on how you count]

03+: NA V6 is the only option [10yrs and counting]


The NA v6 only is certainly not the way the z car has been the majority of it's run.

he never said NA v6 only (perhaps implied though?)

technically:
69-83: I6 (14 yrs)
84-96: v6 (12 yrs) & v6tt (12 yrs)
03-13: v6 (10 yrs)

22 yrs of NA v6, vs 14 yrs of I6, and 12 yrs of v6tt

:tiphat:

Considering he was arguing with someone who was speculating that the next z might be TT, I'd say it was definitely strongly implied.

FuszNissan 04-25-2012 02:25 PM

You mean people are driving Z's that are NA? :confused:
