I wouldn't call 3 inches glory lol

you did last night :rofl2:

:wtf2:

so now im confused if datz a good thing or a bad thing.. :ugh:

:iagree::iagree::confused:

This is the longest thread about a non-existent car I've ever seen! LmPRao!!!!!

:iagree::icon14:

Benz engines are solid. The other parts not mentioned will have Nissan tweaks. It's a great thing!!!

Have you guy seen the new QX30 and Q30? They are quasi-Mercedes too, and they have the god awful tachometer and speedometer to prove it lol:

This era of amazing interiors and gauge clusters and this is what you present?!

Wow
 

All this makes me glad I bought the used 2015 last week. It seems every time I get to liking a car, they change it.

twin turbo benz/Nissan engine love baby in the new Z....sign me up

All I like is the steering Stitching.

looks like a toyota interior... LOL

EPA should probably be outright abolished (along with ATF, but that's neither here nor there), or at the very least severely curtailed.

The clock and temperature is about the perfect location. That LCD display would be great in our left multi-function gauge (as well as in the far right gauge pod)...

Ford edge gauge cluster so much nicer.

2016 audi TT cluster takes the cake so far though.

I prefer navigation in position where the GTR has it (above the AC vents. Should be able to see with peripheral vision while watching the road). Whether it's integrated with the cluster or not, is aesthetics.

To really shine it on, need a HUD.

^ or like the Tesla.

meh i don't like the audi cluster, but that's just me

What are you going to do when your car is out of warranty and you get a handful of dead pixels on your fancy screen?

just give me this and i'll be happy

ugh that audi cluster is hurting my head... it just doesn't have that clean feel. same with that ford edge cluster. they both seem like a cluster fk.

the q30 cluster reminds me of the 07 camry cluster... lol


call me old school but i like the current 370z cluster. sure it could be a little different, have lcd or whatever but what i like about it is nice big tacho in the middle.

everything else is just noise to me.

sometimes i want a nav unit, most of the time i look at it as an opportunity to bond with my car more.


i actually like the lexus f-package cluster they put in the IS series. it's pretty sweet.

is there 2 oil temps? :confused:

edit nevermind. i'm too noob to know the difference between pressure and temp.

damn canadians lol :p

A good old analog cluster is the way to go. But thats just my opinion.

Yeah I got used my Z gauges. Extremely well placed. I've learned to hate side by side gauges. Porsche n Ferrari are definitely gauge kings!!!

Over on Jalopnik they had a brief Q&A with Nissan's design chief Shiro Nakamura.

Patrick George asked Mr. Nakamura in person about the next Z and his response is as follows:

“That is a very interesting project. We have so much racing in our heritage, we have to figure out what form it will take.”

So to decipher that into plan old English; Nissan has no idea about what they plan on doing and when they plan on doing it, when it comes down to a new Z. I am perfectly fine with that.

dang that digital screen looks amazing!

The Z tri-gauge cluster is classic. One thing I'd like to change is the controls on steering wheel. I don't think that they should be there and one of my next mods is have that **** removed and the space concealed with dry carbon fiber bits.

Lexus LFA gauges please.

As I stated earlier, Mercedes blue prints ;)

Nissan will not tarnish their reputation of solid built motors taking over Merc benz engines and being unreliable.

You say this until the next Z comes out with a 350-400hp V6 Twin turbo ;)

Every time something new is out or coming out a lot hate it, reminds me of the 2006 350Z headlights all were hating on then 2 months later it was the must have mod. THe 370z coming out all the 350Z guys saying its ugly, looks like a catfish you name it, then trading or selling their 350 to get a 370z haha

I'm not sure how you can hate what hasn't been created... And for that matter hasn't even really been given a solid spec on engine, exterior or price....

i remember my late grandma mentioning my late uncle's brand new at the time 300ZX looked like a fugly catfish. :rofl2:

The 2016 Infiniti Q50 and upcoming Q60 have a 400HP 3.0 V6 turbo in the line up now...

Excited to see what the new Z is going to look like. At least we know its going to have the same 3.0 Turbo V6...

Until I see an actual new platform rolled out that could conceivably be the new Z, my money is still on sleeker/lighter/mildly sportier version of new Q60.

On that note, any updates on when anything will be leaked or rolled out? January Tokyo Auto Show maybe?

By the way, the base 4C is going to be MSRP'd around 50K... some haggling to get the price down makes that sound like something for me to consider again... :yum:

don't forget the few whispers of a possible V8 in the mix now as well. still think that's just some bs rumor but the V6 TT is in for sure from what i understand so far.

Look man.... Nissan just needs to make a...
$28k 2.0T 250HP 2,7 00lb
&
$37k 3.0TT 370HP 2.900lb version of this.

420HP Miami $46k

Focus on a hyper tuned exhaust. Copy the exact styling proportions but keep it at 172inches long and excessive cues of the original 240z to differentiate it greatly from the benz

Let's see a dct too

Boom. End of story.

2900 pounds with a TT V6 for $37k? Maybe $57k.

How u figure. The Juke is 2700lbs with a third more sheet metal. Is the Juke $45k. This isn't 2009 anymore bruh. Things have changed.
