Next Nissan Z Scooped

JungleZ · 08-25-2013, 12:22 PM

all i know is the city stop and go mpg needs to be better than a V8. Right now its on the same level if not worse.

2xtreme1 · 08-25-2013, 01:24 PM

Yes, its a sports car..and gas mileage should not really matter, however, when a v8 gets better mileage..that's not cool. Anyways..that new concept pic whatever looks like a sls AMG .
..I hate "concepts" ..talk to me when the real thing is out, then I will judge.

Even though it would never happen I'd like to see Nissan keep the current v6 Z and also produce an awd 4 cylinder turbo rally type car to compete with the wrx.

Too bad that when production time comes, Nissan's bean counters will have scaled it back towards "ho-hum".

These were the hubcaps on the original 240z.

The new 2016 370 will be a V6, becoming green by running exclusively on California Prius owners farts.
An added bonus is that Priusians are primarily vegan and vegetarian, which, of course, has a much higher octane level.

Not a fan of the looks and don't know how accurate this is but some of the specs are interesting. The size and weight reduction sound good. A factory turbo conservatively tuned from the factory might be after market tuneable to the mid/upper 300s which would be pretty good for a car that weighs around 2800lbs would def be faster than what we have now and less weight will make it more tossable regardless of power. s2ks do great at the track with a lot less power than our cars. A turbo 6 is doubtful becasue they don't want to get close tot he GT-R. Anyhow, this is all speculaiton at this point. We will wait to see what actually comes out.

Montez · 08-25-2013, 03:34 PM

Not feeling that nor this supposed Maxima concept.....they will be be way out there if these designs make it to production.

olddudesrule · 08-25-2013, 04:09 PM

Jesus, all the hating going on. I actually kind of like it. Reminds me of my old 240. Surely the actual car will be a tamer rendition, and who the hell knows what power plant will sit between the fenders. As for the 4 cylinder vs. 6 cylinder, some of you need to get up to speed on performance technology.....no need to fear the 4.

mhcoss · 08-25-2013, 04:30 PM

I like the FI potential of the 370Z to make big numbers... that said the new Z will probably stock for stock outperform the 370Z

2.5l Turbo 4 Cyl. output @ 230kW = 308hp roughly. What do you guys think?

does this thing transform into a robot or?

Please Nissan, no 4 cylinder. As far as the design goes, I'm sure it won't look like that.
