Yah, chassis code should be z35?

I think Fairlady Z would be nice. I mean really who wouldn't like driving a Fairlady home every evening.

I do so love the engine displacement in the name though.
Gonna be sad to see it go.

Z35, not so much.

It will not be called z35 to the public, z35 is the Nissan code. Such as R33/R34/R35 for the GT-R or z31/z32/z33 for the Z.
The public name will either just be the Nissan Z in the states (if they do 2 engines so not to cause confusion), and continue using Fairlady Z in the rest of the world.

Ever since the Z came out, every model had the 'Z' at the end of the displacement number. I'm quite sure the new name will stick to the tradition.

Definitely rebadging to Fairlady Z now... lol

Lexus does the engine displacement with their IS series (queue is300 is250 is350)

Infiniti (or skyline for non murican) did the g35 and g37 then redesigned to q50 but same 3.7 L (correct me if i'm wrong)

Then there was mercedes with their c250/c300

Screw it... they should just rename everything Trueno. /discussion

WELL the only thing screwed up was the lack of power... they should have released a turbo in their 3rd year with STI. or to be unique the TRD supercharge... or TRD turbo or... bah

TRUENO OR BUST!

Desn't matter to me what Nissan decides to call it. If Kate Upton's parents named her Mike, instead of Kate, I'd still like to date her
