It is a larger market than the current Z, more buyers at that price point.

Now this could easily mean that Nissan will have 3 levels, cheap RWD, Z level and GT-R.
Especially with he GT-R being 100k, the Z could see a price bump to the 40-50k and more power without moving into GT-R territory and a cheap RWD at 20-30k.

And that's what i'm hoping. They have 3 levels and they don't downgrade the Z. The stupidest rumor I heard about Nissan BRZ fighter is that it will either be FWD or the Z will be downgraded to compete in the BRZ market. Both those rumors are unacceptable options.

When I read those articles what I am seeing is the author writing his own opinion on the next gen Z and then assumes that this new car is the next Z. When really Nissan is just saying they are working/finishing a new lightweight performance car.

I noticed that too. But, a lot of times, those opinions are based on "Tech-Hints" Nissan drops on the reporters. then they translate to the best of their ability.

Maybe Nissan does this to get a feel of public opinion? Maybe the reporter is just trying to create car buzz??? I don't know. But i can only go by what reporters say and what I factually know and combine the two to make a prediction.

Honestly. I CAN'T predict whats coming next and it's driving me crazy... lol what I do know, i've been highly disappointed with the weak azz refresh. A waste of money.

I do know that the unchanged since 2011 kia optima is getting more praise than the ALL NEW Nissan Altima. The ALL new sentra is not getting much kudo's. The new Versa is not even spoken of. The new pathfinder is a fvckin' minivan now. the leaf is the best in tech breakthrough's. The maxima is bloated and outdated. And then the Cube is...............................A cube?!

The Juke is the next respectable car after the Z. The juke is being updated twice as fast as the Z. I'm just wanting a positive something about the next gen Z. Nissan seems to be going downhill in appealing design on other cars.
