The next gen Z!

Just like in that article and with the vision Nissan wants to go with the car you can expect a smaller Z with a 4 cyl turbo before you can expect a 6 cyl turbo. I hope I am wrong as that would break from tradition. But with the pressure to stay competitive and mpg friendly etc etc. Going bigger isn't the safest bet. Nissan will play this close to the vest until they are ready to debut the next model. Maybe Nissan can once again be the innovater and shake up the category while sticking with a 6 cyl and remain very competitive. Only time will tell.

Man this forum makes me think not very many people are happy with their Z. I am looking forward to 2014/15 tho and hopefully a mustang that doesn't look so much like a mustang.

In hindsight I wish I wouldve kept my Cobalt SS but I do love my Z its gorgeous and RWD. My only real knock is just how expensive the aftermarket is and how relatively few options we have. If Nissan would get behind promoting the aftermarket and working with some of these companies I think a lot more people would keep their Z's
