I'm waiting for the new Z convertible. That's going to be interesting

Has to be right? They had the base model then the NISMO. The convertible should come next. Prob more that I would want to pay any way, so I guess it doesn't matter.

They should have given us a VR38 powered Heritage Edition at a premium price since this might be the last of the ICE and keep the history of the 432 consistent. They can keep the VR38 powered Juke-R and Fairlady X exercises and help elevate the Z name instead.

Corvettes and Mustangs have moved passed the Z to a whole new level while the z continues to get appearance packages.

You fail to realize NO ONE WANTS ELECTRIC golf cars, err i meant electric , the administration of the senile will be ousted and the Auto manufacturers don't want to build and and can not sell electric vehicles. They all loosing money. Dodge or rather Stellantro or wutever the name is, WILL be bringing back the Hemi and gasoline powered vehicles along with GM and ford. Fear not the future will continue with the fossil fuels unti the real TRUE Zero Point Energy or ALIEN TECH is finally released to the public. ALL WILL CHANGE THEN and not before. Lets Go Brandon! 😁

Probably the biggest reason that EVs are doing so poorly is the stunning lack of infrastructure, which is changing...at least in some parts of the country. That said...the great puzzlement that so many liberals people feel as to why EVs aren't rampant comes from their inability to grasp the fact that EVs aren't well-suited to more...rural...parts of the country (i.e. the vast wilderness between the two coasts) especially those that get snow.

Additionally, a lot of people are unwilling to ignore the disastrous ecological impact that EV battery production and disposal has, despite the government's strident efforts to get us to shrug that off.

Now that they cancelled the GT-R, I think the Z will be spared form the chopping block.

Now, if we start to see, "Nissan MAXIMA race edition" or some other BS, I'll start to get worried again.

But will a manual nismo really increase sales or just be a cater to the internet? I remember so many people on facebook or forums wanting this or that and never was interested in actually buying the car. A risk indeed for nissan but all up to them, just imo doesn’t make sense for them

This is an interesting topic. I came into some family $$$, and before that, never dreamed I could ever drive a sport coupe. Yeh!! Did not want the usual Camaro, Mustang, Charger, Vette etc.. Something different and unique for this part of the US(upper Midwest). Then, stumbled across this "Z" thing. Sure, I'm 63 years and remember vaguely the 240s, 260s 280s etc from the 70s and 80s. Not a common thing up here. Well, OK. How do I go about getting it? Not many Nissan dealers around these parts. Have to drive out of town or websites and such for info.. Then, on top of that, a dealer with a Z or willing to find one. And, the trim /color I want. Get it?

Got a dealer 60 miles away to find one. A basic Sport, no options. The color options limited to Black, Grey or Burgundy:cautious:. (I said Grey)

Put 500 bucks down in Feb. and said "go get it!". Waited two months with no news. Called and asked 'What's up? Got my Z ordered?" Well, golly gee, we found one in Ohio. Not exactly what you ordered but close. You want it? Sure! I said. Go get it. Will it cost me extra $$ for that? Nope. We'll take care of that. Great!!

Two weeks later - Hey, we got your Z! Come up and get it.

To get to the point, I went there and leased the Z for three years, thinking this car might be a risk. They were not happy. Have yet to see another Z here.
