[OFFICIAL] Discussion for the next new Nissan 400Z Z35?

nis350 · 07-15-2016, 12:28 PM

Nissan already has the new q60s in the $50k range with the turbo 400hp engine. I would think the Z would be thousands less.

However, I have also read that Nissan may not build another Z simply because of lack of profits and demands, especially if we hit recession in the near future.

Rendering on the previous page looks kinda like the toyburu.

I like it, but would prefer a more unique look.

Not sure where you read that as several of the companies higher ups including ghosn have been quoted as stating that the Z will be a part of the companies line up for a long time to come

Nissan already said, THERE WILL BE BOTH A NEW Z N GTR.

If a recession hit, you'll be reading about what they're doing with Z's in Japan vs owning one and doing it yourself.

Changing subject...

How Nissan can make a $60K Z? This is how!!

Nissan SPECIFICALLY stated they want to make a lighter car specifically reminiscent of the original 240z.

So if anything was to fall through the cracks in rumors or speculations. It would be likely the z would be a 4banger only and would start under $30k. The next Z if I speculated. The 4 banger will be between 2,800-2,900lbs. n the turbo 6 if they even make it would be 3,000-3,100lbs...

Let's say they build a topline, Nismo is 450HP, it would most likely be the model that is 3,100lbs. It would have a 6.8lb power to weight ratio vs the corvettes 7.3.

So if we're trumping up numbers of the top of our head. The Z would would win. Especially if the Z remains, hydraulic with a handbrake. The corvette would quickly become obsolete. It would be the most driver focused car because it will be the only analog car with a personality. While all the others will have numb electric steering.
