I concur, Dr. In fact, I think that highly-repeatable 3.9 and low-12 second 1/4 mile times would be huge wins for the NISMO. Something that nearly everyone is able to replicate with a reasonable degree of ease. That's partially what has set the new Supra apart from the Z (among other things, I...

I hope that it does post quicker times than the Performance - which already runs in the 4.1 second range assuming one can cleanly launch it - but that weigh gain may be a factor. The tires, suspension settings, and transmission programming could help it get into the 3.8 range. That would look...

Same! Those are starting to pop up around Naples and that vehicle just bloody dropped!

I still haven't even seen a Z in the wild. This rollout has been shakier than a cr***head during an earthquake ?

That's...too expensive for a Z.

Oh, yeah, I'll bet that's it, like a special edition or a certain option code or whatever. It's wild out there, man

Really?? Where are you seeing that? That's wild because what I've seen is that it's about a $900 increase (from 53,595 to 54,500 for the 3.0, for example).

Which is powerfully weak stuff, in my view.

It's especially true if you are trying to shop somewhat locally. If I'd found a yellow Supra within a 300-mile radius and without some silly markup during the last year, I'd probably be driving it.

This makes me happy ?

Just the spoiler, please! I have to imagine that there will be an aftermarket variant of this spoiler even if Nissan does not decide to share the part with any other markets.

I fear that Nissan may be making a calculated decision in deliberately *not* optioning the base Z with LSD, at the very least. Surely Nissan reps have read the feedback. They've heard the noise. I guarantee it is known within the company that they'd move as many units of the base Z as they...

Boom, that's the one I'd take. ?

I'd do it in a heartbeat, though I'd prefer the A-pillars and roof section be black. One could always wrap those areas.

Damnit, the orange is nice, I would like that option. With a persimmon interior, naturally. Or really just any tan interior would be a nice pairing.

Yeah, I kind of like the front fascia of the Nismo, even if the rest of the kit is a bit try-hard for my taste. I could see getting a standard Zed and replacing the bumper cover (thus also avoiding the red accent). That presupposes that I could ever actually purchase a Z, of course ? :rolleyes...

Exactly the reason for the adage that tires are the most important performance upgrade one can make ?

Good god! At least the Zed has the proper number of doors (though...are the Ionic 6 N's rear doors like welded shut? The frames are still there...)

Do we know to a certainty that the new orange will be a solid color without the black roof in all markets? Wouldn't especially matter to me, in either case, but it's just a curiosity.
