Should Nissan bring back the 2+2 layout?

Just like the T top, the 2+2 should remain dead.

Those are fighting words haha don’t bring the t-tops into this

Q60RS = Z35 2+2 with a Tux on.
Keep the Z a 2 seat performance car

I have been around Z's for a long time now. And I have owned a few. Fortunately never had to deal with a 2+2 version.

I agree the Z32 version was the best version of it, I could only ever really tell by checking the fuel door, aside from looking in the window.

Currently, the Q60 is exactly a "Z 2+2". In fact, I'd even argue it is a "ZX 2+2". There's no need to have this car as a "Z", just get the Q60.

To me, the BIGGEST draw to the Z outside of my nostalgia for the Z, is the fact it is a 2 seater. To own a Z is a "commitment". I will be selling my Q60 so I can obtain a Z. We rarely use the backseat in the Q60, I have a truck and my wife has a 5 door car, so the 2 seats are not a problem.

As far as the Q60 is concerned, it is WAY overpriced and quite outdated at this point. I think Infiniti may be able to do a soft-refresh of it, offer a 6MT version with updated infotainment and cut out the leather, sunroof, and whatever else drives the cost of the Q60 to easily deep 50's/over 60K. I find it odd that the new Z is going to be "in the 40's" when the Q60 is way above that for what is essentially the same car, just tarted up a bit.

@takemorepills - your description of the Q60 is perfect. Agree too that it’s overpriced. I’m subtly searching for a used one and they are still too overpriced (yes, I know all used cars are priced high)

But my perfect setup is a Q60RS with a Z34 vert but I’ll have to settle for my current set of cars: 11’ G37 coupe (2+2) and a 93’ Z32 NA coupe. Not a bad consolation I guess

Yeah . . Hmmm . . Sorta . . . . Not Really . . . . OK . . . Even Tricked Out . . . ahhh.... Final Answer: A big N O to the 2 + 2

The best 2+2 manual-equipped coupe Nissan ever built for America was the 08-14 G37/Q60 coupe. The current gen Q60 feels too artificial in the steering/handling dept. The G37, while a bit hefty in feel, had the right weighting and feel with its steering and employed an exterior design that has aged extremely well - I think it looks better than the current gen Q60 (that's not a knock on the Q60 - I quite like it, but I don't think it will age nearly as gracefully as the G37 coupe).

While a 2+2 Z would be an ideal offering for me and where I am in life, as far as Zs go I prefer the 2 seat setup, and I still plan to purchase one. However, a wrench thrown into the works would be offering the current Q60 with a manual transmission. I would likely go with that over a Z if it existed, even with the lesser-desired steering feel.

Created an account just so I could vote "NO."

Definitely in the 2 seater camp just purely based on the styling in the generations it was offered. I've never quite been able to articulate why I wasn't a fan of the Z32 styling, and I'm now realising its just the 2+2 that looks off to me.

I'm not against the new Z having a 2+2 option, but only if it didn't raise the price of the 2 seater or affect its viability.

The Z is a true "Sports Car" - if you need a back seat, Q60. Back doors? Q50.

if you need a back seat, Q60. Back doors? Q50.

aka Nissan Fuga, aka Nissan Skyline, aka Nissan 370GT ... depending on where you live. Around here we get all those nameplates on the road thanks to second-hand Japanese imports.

 

[GrishTXU]

Nissan should offer the Z with a 2+2 and the option to do a “rear seat delete”! ?

 

[LeatherWings]

You can have all the seats you want, as long as it's 2.

I kind of like having back seats in my G35 but yeah I know thats what the Q60 is for
