Just saw this on Motor1.com, it's like a resurgence of JDM sports cars coming back to make their last swan song. I truly hope this vehicle makes it to production!!
The new Nismo Z looks good in the renderings. I'm more interested in the improvements in aero and suspension. I believe it'll make around 430 to 450hp. Good competitor to american muscle and the Supra.
I'd say just like everyone else the Supra is the main competitor. Besides the Supra, the Mustang, Camaro, and 718 Cayman are the secondary competitors to the Z. I honestly don't think the Vette is a competitor, not many people are cross shopping a Z and Vette. I can't wait till the reviews...
I agree with Driving Enthusiast, I believe the new Nismo will feature the 3.0 turbo engine with a small horsepower bump. I think most of the R&D will go to the suspension, aero, and weight savings. Maybe 430hp and 100 pound weight savings.
