such as whether it will come with a manual transmission . . .
IIRC there is no manual currently paired with the VR30DETT but Z1 and CZP have made it work with the CD transmission in the Z34 nissan certainly would be able to do it

re eating words etc. I’m 75 years old. My daily driver summer and winter is my 513 RWHP 2009 370Z with a lot of money it. Very little stock. So, getting some new technology, not such a big deal for me. I had a 93 300ZX Twin Turbo. Had to sell it after moving to New Hampshire. The have winter here. I will wait until the 400Z is at the dealer but will have to be fantastic. No, the 370Z is not mid-life (top end life) crisis. Since 1983, I’ve always driven Nissan sports cars. Prior to that, was all sports cars.

Looks like the manual is gone and the price could be 3x more than the current z.

I would be surprised if it doesn’t have a 6MT bc Nissan has a tendency to look to push things related to performance than interior and reliability (at least when compared to Honda and TOYO); and I think while a 6MT is becoming more and more scarce - it is still a want by a lot of enthusiasts. If it winds up being a Z34.5 - I’ll be thrilled - I don’t know how many times (myself included) where members said ‘If only they would upgrade the interior, infotainment included and offer a turbo for tuning; they can keep the current body and I’ll be thrilled - it’ll be like TAKE MY$$ ‘ .
So regardless, as long as they offer a 6MT and a turbo - I’ll be thrilled - especially if the Nismo come with the current Recaros - bc those are ‘noice’. Anyway - Hoping the end of this year and the beginning of next we will actually see what the production model will look like and if there will be a 6MT etc. Can’t wait to see reviews
