Lot I don't mean look like a Murano. I mean updated the same way the Murano was updated, by updating the projector boomerang headlights to full LED headlights and just a more aggressive bumper cover. See my previous post on the previous page.
2018 Murano projector boomerangs (similar to existing 370Z boomerangs): 2019 Murano LED boomerangs with LED strips along the edge: LED refreshed headlights like that would have looked good on the 370Z Last edited by viiv; 07-14-2020 at 06:24 PM. |

It does have nice 240Z retro look. Sorry not going back to that look.
I was very excited when I heard of the 400Z but then I saw the Japanese pictures. I like my 370Z better. I’d rather get a used 300ZX Twin Turbo (best car I ever owned) than the 400Z. |

Too early to make that statement man. You don't know what the product looks like yet in the flesh, how it performs, or anything of substance. So far we have an outline and some renders.

Long, but interesting post from what seems like an insider.

Short version:
Like everyone has pointed out, Nissan doesn't have money to develop a new RWD sports car platform because they're broke and people don't buy sports cars. It only works if it can be shared across multiple releases This is why Toyota is using the Z4 platform - it's cheaper to license existing stuff than develop it on your own. This post claims the Z35 will use the CV37 Infiniti Q60 coupe platform, which is itself based on the same FM platform that started in in the 350Z/G35. In other words . . . this is gonna be a Z34.5 a long version of what we've all heard before, with history thrown in I bet SPL is gonna love this. All their arms and crap are going to be easily adapted to yet another car Mildly updated FM platform + VR30DETT + new front/rear end = 400Z
