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

I agree keep the "sports" look however a few "safety features" to save lives and for the sake of safety doesn't distract from the car at all. In fact most of the safety features in the Nissan Intelligent mobility package are transparent to the driver and don't hinder the vehicle "look" or "feel" of the car at all.
May even justify the current $40,000 + price tag!

Driving nannies encourage poor driving habits and distracted driving. People rely on them more than they pay attention these days. It is not a good thing.

This isn't about aesthetics. And they absolutely do hinder the "feel" of the car. When nannies interfere with my driving more often than not it's an unsafe interruption.

unfortunately my friend these are the times we live in..teenagers on cell phones texting while driving, women trying to put on makeup on the way to work while driving etc...I see it every day...makes the NEED for these safety features in every car essential as saving lives especially the lives of others who are victims of these poor drivers.

Meh... let Darwin sort it out, I say.

Put those nannies on soccer mom SUVs and such. Leave them off my sports car options.

Get with the times pal! Guaranteed the new Z (if there is one) is going to incorporate a lot if not all of these Nissan Intelligent mobility features.

Lets face it the Z is still and will always be a beautiful unique car that even though the design is 10 years old can still hold its own is uniqueness and pure sports car "feel" I LOVE the design of the Nismo Z! Hell it is one of the few true "sports" cars that you can still get with a manual transmission!!!! however every single Youtube review from Doug Mauro to Four Bros speed etc list the interior and stock power as the car's weaknesses
It's due for a power and technology update.

no, less weight not more.....

Making it a less desirable car. The current Z is one of few cars you can buy new that are not loaded with bloat

So..proven safety technology that could potentially save lives that could be seamlessly integrated into the vehicle making it transparent to the driver is bloat?

FPenvy

it's a sports car. if used correctly then safety features don't matter. typically dead on impact.

How much more "weight" do you think these safety features add?
If weight is your concern you can start with an aftermarket exhaust and go from there..

I think the vehicle crash data from the NHTSA would disagree with you illogical statement.

you're either older or a young one who had a terrible childhood.
