I think they need to keep the price down. Get in under the supra and under cut sales. The supra didn't do well at it's price point, should have been 10k under where it started. I loved my old 2010 NISMO Z but I managed it for 38k which I think was an appropriate price point for it. And now and days with the HP the mustang and camaro is pushing for mid to high 30's I don't think Nissan should push it's luck. Bring in a sub 40k 400hp Z and the Nismo should be closer to 45k for a base but needs to pack closer to 500hp to compete. Give me a 45k NISMO 500hp that looks decent and I'll cxl my Vette order no problem. I'd love the Z35 sitting next to my 280z and 300zx in the garage.

If the next Nismo Z is going to be near 480hp like the rumors have stated, it will be a great alternative to the C8. The C8 doesn't have a manual available and I don't care that much for the looks. The interior is nice but a little too overdone. I don't care for the buttress with the row of buttons on it, which blocks access to rubbing your girlfriend's leg while driving, LOL. Nissan will be able to keep the price down by not having to spend money developing an engine- they already have it, and they are just going to update the 370's chassis, thereby saving more money.

So I have time to see what the Z35 turns into. As someone mentioned having a manual is a huge bonus. It was an internal struggle to know I'd be giving up a manual as my current Z06 is manual. But I figured I still have my 280z 5 speed so I wouldn't be 100% out. So if the Z35 Nismo has the right power to price ratio and a manual then I'd gladly take it over the C8

MSRP. Considering before COVID hit there was speculation that 2021 was going to get a price increase, paying MSRP for a 2020 made sense. However now there is no price increase for 2021 because COVID delayed production. Doesn't mean 2022 wont. With everything going on you wont get a C8 under MSRP for several years. Demand for the car is too high.
