...As I said before, if you are expecting a brand new Z in a few years, it's not happening.

By the time the (newly approved) Z34 refresh (2020 target) launches, all of us (internally and externally) will know if a Z35 has reached full approval for production by senior management.

In the meantime, take what the media puts out with a grain of salt. Up until this summer, Albaisa knew very well the demise of the Z35, yet either to keep up morale and not scare away potential buyers, has created a false narrative to probably convince his bosses and shareholders not to give up on the Z.

The idea was keep it unchanged through 2021, yet now a refresh was approved for a few hundred million to keep it alive longer.

As I mentioned exactly over 2 years ago, it wasn't going to be an all new vehicle. That was canceled in January 2018, in which during the summer of 2018, a final design was set with no actual business plan behind it.

Albaisa and co. saved this car 2 years ago. I'm no longer a shareholder, so I don't know as much as I used to. I haven't gotten enough intel on whether or not how reliable the claim on change in launch date is.

Last time I checked, September 2021 was Job 1 for November and December deliveries. That came from internal resources and not news media. But it has definitely been a few months I heard this and with COVID...

I have said for a few months that Titan has no manufacturing timeline after 2022 (as in dead) and next Frontier enters production on January 4, 2021, launching the last week of February or March 20:21.
