I like it!

 

That's unfortunate looking.

It looks like an artist's rendering of what a 300z would have looked like in 2021, back in 1991.

The interior does look nice though.

 

I like it. Does Mercedes make that for Nissan like BMW makes the Supra for Toyota?

Love the rear end. Curious how the quality will be.

Are GTR used prices down to new 400z prices?

 

i’m actually into it. now they need to make sure they update the gtr in a big way to justify a price gap

 

Looks like a cross between a 300 and 370. Anyone know what the torque/horsepower ratings are?

I had a 370. Hard car to auto cross, but pretty good in a straight line.

 

I miss my 280Z

 

fingers crossed that this one has some good handling then. i’m also hoping for the unique colors like the yellow

 

Word on the net is it will start just under $35k and have 400hp.

 

Looks they tried to address people's issues with the gaping RECTANGLE maw by giving it braces.. Ugh.

The rest of it looks nice though.

I remember an interview with the designer saying that it was designed around the current 370Z platform and isn't a clean-sheet design. So expect similar power and handling.

 

My first car (16 years old!) was a 1977 280Z.

 

This is what the front end looks like driving down the road. I do like the ass and interior but the front is...

 

The fact they listened to enthusiasts for this car and kept the 6 speed unlike toyota/bmw on supra project is a big win. Also to me, after an aftermarket rear bumper/diffuser its a solid looking car. Now to see the time around the ring vs a supra.
Edit: for the front I would be taking the grille insert out and leaving a MASSIVE front mount intercooler exposed. Its the JDM thing to do plus the grille isn't pretty.

 

Glad to see that it stays pretty true to the concept. I just wish they would have left off some of the 370 parts bin pieces (interior door handles mostly).

It's confirmed that it has a twin turbo V6 - likely out of the Infiniti Q60 red sport and not the GTR. So expected HP is around the 400 range but i'm hoping maybe they'll tweak it up a little higher than the Infiniti's numbers.

Also, I just noticed the difference in the rear end on these. I guess you'll have the option of body color roof or black roof?

 

the edit half sounds like a good ass idea

 

Correct, there is a VR30 under the hood.
