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

bcfromfl

Just came across this article today...nothing extraordinary, but maybe a few details:Nissan Has a New 500-Horsepower Z Concept Coming

Also, earlier in this thread folks were discussing that Mazda has given up on sports cars. This might be in the works: Gorgeous Mazda RX Vision on track for 2020 | Top Gear At a recent visit to my Mazda service department, there was even a slick article in their Mazda magazine about it with an interview. This article is posted on Mazda's official website.

Sorry to tell you, but the last 2 pages have been discussions based on the very same text as in your link

...and they even have an 'artist's impression', for what it's worth (not a lot).

Sorry about that...hard to wade through 200 pages...

I agree. Personally, I think that this latest 'rumour' is the first believable piece of news we've had on the next Z, and therefore deserves a new thread of its own.

I think when we see a real concept we can start a new thread. This is still all hearsay

Okay -- good. This is what I expected. Sounds like they will just transfer the Q innards to a redesigned Z (but, probably based on Q) body.

So, about same weight, shorter wheelbase, and another 50-70 bhp at the crank. Sounds good to me!

I wonder if that 7-speed will be a true dual clutch or just the current offering. Either way, that works for me, and If I can swing it, I'll definitely be getting the 400 bhp 7AT/DCT

I'm guessing it will probably not cost much more than the current Nismo, so 45 -47 MSRP.

Cross shopping with the Supra sounds probable -- although as we've all been discussing, the Toytota ECU's tend to be locked, so the Z will be the car that's much easier to tune... therefore, almost certainly the better option.

Hopefully someone on here will be able to get info on invoice pricing...

Can't wait!

I'm sure youre wright about the weight and the power but the wheelbase?

Im excited to see the NA model. If its close to 3000lbs at 300hp, I'd be happy with that. Maybe a sport package with big brakes and some rays would be nice as well.

damn i cant wait to see it. I'm kind of hope i find it ugly so I dont want to buy it . . .

I really hope this is something solid to look forward to. Hopefully they keep a manual tranny as an option.

I believe it.

I'll wager 10 of your US Dollars to 10 of my UK Pounds that the new Z concept will be at the Tokyo Autoshow (and my pounds are worth more than your dollars, so it could be a good deal for you). Are you up for it?

I'm not going to bet. I'm just saying that cuz we were supposed to see a concept in two auto shows already....

I'm not sure how I feel about the next Z possible resembling the 2017 GTR. Don't want the Z to be blocky
