I've got used to the digital fuel gauge, but you're absolutely correct - it's not good and never has been.

As for the infotainment system, the Z's console is crying out for a big vertical touchscreen.

Do not want ipad in my Z.

Can't believe I'm saying this - but can't wait for Monday so we will be that much closer to finding out about the new Z.

50" plasma screen would be quite nice, with cinema surround sound, but NOT Bose, as it would be nice to upgrade it at some point.

,,,and quite possibly there will be another (final?), even clearer YouTube teaser by then - can't wait!

Anyone have thoughts on the two tone design from the prototype? It doesn’t look bad on the Sentra, but probably on the disappointment list for me if it continues to the production model.

Looking at the picture, the front rotors seem to be 2 pc design. There’s no way Nissan is going to put 2 pc rotors on a base version, that’s too expensive. Fort be reserved for at least sports if not Nismo only.

Now I am thinking about cost of replacement....it’s got GTR tax written all over it.

Some new renders from the lastest teaser images. Not 100% accurate but should be close to the actual proto model.

It looks like there is a noticeable hood "bulge", if you will, down the center of the hood. Similar to the older Z cars.

I agree. Also reminds me of the 07/08 350z.

still reserving judgement on the aesthetic until we see production, and for all we know there's a disappointing proportion of carryover from the Z34, but that manual mansmission just says so much these days. Sure enough, we can get Miatas, Camaro's and Mustang's, and 86's and Porsche's as well as some M's with manuals, but it seems like Nissan's marketing team gave clear attention that they listened to this demand.

Adds high hopes they give zero craps about magazine stat comparisons, and just simply went for a car people want.
