Heres another publication.

The hardest part of this car is the transmission and the chassis. Let's just hope for the best. Maybe they can get a new tranny contract and outsource. I know the next GTR must be getting a new tranny.

It's a TOUGH market right now where big cars have small car agility. So the Z has to be a small car with supercar agility.

I dont care for the small wheelbase of the bmw supra.
The 350z had like 104" wheelbase and the 370 is 100".
I think that's good.

Not sure if anyone posted this, but here's a recent concept picture from a Japanese magazine.

Wow. I hope it looks like that though it seams almost too retro to be true. If it has lights similar to that, I’m in. Which magazine?

It was from Car Top magazine a couple of months ago.

Certainly fits with what’s being rumored for the updated Z34.

The question is, let's hope they keep the wide,.low profile look.
But still, without a good auto transmission, that will be an issue, and 2 steps behind bmw supra

Agreed. Would guess the width etc. would be identical to the current car given its just a revamp. Here’s a questions. What will they call it? We’ve heard 400Z in reference to the hp amount. Why not just start calling them “Z”s.

tvfreakazoid · 01-18-2020, 04:54 PM

Nissan Z would just work.

Retro styling (especially the front lights), on the same floorpan as the 370 - well well well - what a surprise! That rendering is pretty good, but I wouldn't expect the top of the door to scoop downwards just like the 370 does. Just a small detail, I know - but it's important to small people like me!

Edit - I don't think it will be 'only a new front'. It will be different, but I also think it won't be a radical shift in appearance either.

Could care less about auto trans. Manual all the way! Won't buy a new Z if it doesn't have a manual available.

I get it but it's the future. It just sucks they might be using their own auto trans.

That rendering looks great and if that is just the refreshed look and not the new Z35, my question is how much ADM would be added to this? With cars like the Supra, GT500, GT350 and CTR - it seems like everyone is getting into the ADM game which sucks for all of us.

Do we know if there will be a manual trans - if that is the case - it would be hard to pass up on the refresh or maybe just keep what I have and save those pennies for the actual updated Z. Already wondering what tuning will be out there and how much more HP you’ll be able to get out of the stock engine. Regardless this is great news and is very exciting for those that want a new Z35.

They say there will be an option for a manual. But they need a better auto trans.
Regardless if you don't like it's the future. Especially if they want to keep up with similar cars.

The updated Z no more affordable sport car, $50,000 at least.

where did you get that number from? That's what you can get a infiniti q60 for.
