Id LOVE for you to be correct but that magical sub 3k weight with two snails up front...sounds exotic to me. But you're right, they probably have the tooling in place. Stranger things have happened.

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...

metal is cheap.

it's the technologies, dampeners, pipings, suspension, coupe premium etc that adds onto it.

i can see the next Z debut around 35k for the entry up to into the 50's for a nismo.

the new Q = meh to me.

sure the engine may be 'exciting' but the design didn't wow me as much as the RC-350 or even the miata.

front grille got toned down a bit which was bound to happen. the proto front end is amazing but would never go into production that way sadly.

i'm disappointed with how the really downsized and changed the gills/vents on the front fenders. the proto versions were perfect. now.....kinda weird and without seeing in person not liking them.

Except that attractive sheetmetal on the rc-350 came at a cost of a 4000lb curb weight

that's not good for the Q60 if it's reminding Nissan guys of a Honda.

not referring to weight just aesthetics.

that's what it was... lol the lights reminded me of something but i kinda forgot that brand existed :eekdance:

yea... great way for the infiniti to be reminiscing of the accord and genesis.

renault you hear this you dik bags? don't pull the kia/hyundai crap of the 2000's making frankenmachines borrowing the unique features of every car and mashing them together to make a 'new car'.

it got old fast

Actually before even reading your reply, it also did remind me of the Accord as soon as I saw it. It has the same lines/looks although I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing.

I mean cmon the new Camaro is coming in 3670lbs with 455hp/455tq.

I believe the new M2 weighs in at 3500 with 370hp/360tq,

also different markets than the Q60 just saying 3800 with anything less than the rumored 400 will be tough in the newest batch of car models.

True, but this helps the Z35 case along. This was a good find. Seeing something solid by 2017 would be nice though.

Well, it's most certain that the next Z will be turbocharged. These Infiniti coupes are essentially cousins to the Z.

Back to the Z32 TT days! Turbo, big boost, and 500 hp no problem!!

Oh no, you mean my next car is the love child of an Accord and a Genesis :confused: :icon17:

I really like the look of this Q60 and could seriously be my next car in late 2016 or early 2017, but I'll still need more info.

I really like it, but I wish it looked more aggressive. Does the badge on the fender say 3.0T?

Yes, it does. The 2016 Pricing info for the Infiniti Q50 already lists either the 2.0 turbo 4cyl or 3.0 turbo 6cyl. The Q60 will be sharing the same engine choices from what I've seen.

Nice info black, anyway if you can find out if a 6mt will come with the Q60?
