Nissan needs to really step into reality. They sabotaged their own success with the Z. 3 years straight there were $1,000 increases. For NO REASON.

The mid cycle refresh addressed a non existent issue..

The Z at minimum should be 350HP on the regular Z n 370HP on the Nismo at this point.

Transmission gearing should have been more aggressive even on Non Nismo automatics.

Materials should have been updated on the interior.

Instead they went back to 09 pricing, effed up everyone's residual value.


Focused on the Nismo only and jacked the price up too high by $3,000.

Nissan wants to cost the same as its competitors by giving the lowest possible updates then putting the price comparable to a Porsche.... smh.

Fuckattaheuh!!

While waiting at a Freightliner garage to get my motorhome worked on today. (I don't have tools that big) I was reading, I think R&T. It had an article in it that make me take notice. In the article, it stated that the Japanese do not know who their car buyer are. They are clueless. All they see is CUV's.

Rather disappointing if true given their history and tact for hitting the nail on the head with niche cars like Hondas, Sti's, and especially our beloved Z. Maybe they need some old timers back in their marketing department?
