I'm afraid of buying my Z, then seeing a twin turbo verison comming out. If that happens, I guess I can just trade it in for a new one. Just imagine how fast a TT would be....can we say Viper eater?

True, but just think how much fun you will have missed in the mean time. DO IT NOW! Live for today, cause tomorrow may not come.

I make up excuses to drive this car because it is so much fun.

Also imagine how expensive. It would be close to 40k, or even over.

Yeah thats true..but as of now, the new Z is EVERYTHING i've wanted in a car....minus the turbo. If they do come out with a turbo version, I will get it for sure...just imagine driving around with a blow off valve...*cream*

I think the car is fine the way it is! Remember what happened with the last 300Zx TT. It's price skyrocketed and was soon gone. I think Nissan learned its lesson on building a successful sports car for the masses and returned to its roots. I do not think the 350z will see a turbo version. There may be a V-8 version, infinity has the Indy V-8 engine which could be put in a high performance Z car.

Thats longer than I can say, 9 mos to 1 1/2 yrs is my average! But, the only thing I see getting rid of the Z for is a better Z!

You kind of have to wonder about that. If Nissan is bringing in the next gen Skyline GT-R then either the Skyline has to put out better numbers or Nissan will have a slight problem on their hands. Hence, I think the chances are slim. But it'd be great if it did happen, Skyline or no Skyline.

Note: The projected price for the US Skyline is $70K so I'd hate to imagine how much that future Z would cost.
