Yes that's obvious.

The real question is if there will be a next Z. The people from Nissan have made statements that make the next Z sound iffy if it'll get made. Also with their comments and no info or intent if there is a next Z it could be a ways off.

400z.... Why? Cuz of 400HP? What about the other engine? I think the rumor of it being called solely Z is most likely.

There will be another Z. Our model will run 10 model years.

Yes, 400Z because of 400HP. Car manufactures will not advertise lower engine displacement numbers because it'll give consumer the idea of 'lower number means cheap, higher number means better'.

I will be bold and speculate here - Given the next Boxster/Cayman are moving to 4cyl engines......I think there is a chance the next Z might just be 4cyl only. Motor tech has come a long way and it would be no surprise to see that as a possibility.

not a chance.

will there be a 4cyl option.....most likely.

will they let a 400hp TT engine they just made sit on the sidelines in their only 2 seater 2 door sports car? not a fuckin chance.

As well do I. The Z is not a volume seller to justify an independent engine. They use the sales from the G (now Q) platform to support it. Unless they do something radical and make a sporty juke type crossover that pairs with the Z, the Z/Q will always be sister platforms.

about 4.8-5.1 sec 0-60 give or take if you want to give rollout too.


that's a bit disappointing. but we don't know the weight. could be a pig.

if I gave a slight pause when I first heard engine noise it was 4.8-5.0 but if you go when it first revs and the speedo moves I got mainly 5.05

This is exactly what's think will happen. The Z will come in a coupe and crossover. The crossover for all the whiny bitches in 2009 that cried for a mustang sized Z and more creature comforts like if we drive benzes??

Lil bytch n****z!
