You want fast with 700-lb/ft torque, AWD, no sea level air density concerns, just get a Tesla Type S with the Ludicrous option and 0-60 in 2.6sec. (quicker than a new Z06 Vette.) Otherwise, I'm just fine with my '12 Touring Z. 400+ HP just won't get it. We'll see if the new Z is any prettier than the existing 370z. It's all in the eyes of the beholder. I'm good with all the compliments I get now...... until I can afford that 1966 Shelby 427 Cobra S/C that I really want.... which BTW isn't as fast as that d*mn Tesla!

If the new Z is remotely like any of the various artist renderings out there on the net, then I'm glad as hell that I got a Z before the redesign. All of the renderings, and I DO mean all of them are freakin' hideous.
Personally, I think the best looking Z's out there are the original 240's, the Z32 300's, the 350's and 370's. And whenever they come out with the new Z, I hope they do the smart thing and have retro 240Z styling.

It's the last rendering on $60K for a Z thread.

If you're referring to this thing, I'm still glad I got mine. That one looks like it was smashed in the rear by a Mack truck. Thanks, but not thanks.

$60k, i was hoping for 40k i mean its not like they'll put a nice interior in it, its a nissan. twin turboing a car doesn't cost $30k and that price point is what made the 350/370z so appealing IMO starting at 29k I mean come on...

That rendering is little over done but I think it has potential to translate well in real life. Especially if they are going with the 300zx styling, I could see it working really well.

ITT: People want to turn the 370Z into a bloated upscale luxury turd instead of just buying an RC F.
Oh wait we're not to the "$60K for the next Z" thread yet. Well, I'll just wait right here then. Or how about this is the "$40K for the next Z because it's a ******* Nissan" thread? |
