Since recently Nissan/Infiniti released pictures of the 2005 G35 sedan and coupe. Does anyone know what the plan is for the 2005 350z or any pics of it?

 

they released pictures of the 05 g35 sedan? do you have a link. i heard they made changes to the exterior...i'm kind of curious to see it.

 

Here

 

I had the same question but I have heard that since it is the 35th Anniversary of the Z it might explain the delay

 

those rims look strange on the g35

 

Yellow is on the way.

 

Confirmed from Nissan that there is NOT going to be a 35th Anniversary edition 350Z, they say they do not have any plans to produce a 350Z anniversary edition in the near future. So the rumors can stop here. I did not ask about yellow but a lot of "people in the know" have seen the paint code E33 for the Z, which is the same color as the Spec V's yellow.

 

I heard yellow would be available in Jan. for the 05.

 

Why would there not be a 35th anniversary edition?

 

There will be a 35th anniversary edition in December.

 

I guess Nissan was out of the loop on the 35th anniversary Z then...

 

the dealership told me the 05 are not coming till Jan or Feb, they said the only early 05 will be the pathfinder and the new altima se-r

 

The 05 z will be released september 14th, with just some running fixes.

 

I was told that pathfinder, xterra, frontier and the SE-R alitma are suppose to be out late september while the 350Z comes out in October with the track coming out in December, January time period.

 

It seems very peculiar that theres tons of info on the C6 Vette, 05 Mustang, 05 Porsche 997, and a host of others. But, there isnt even a tinkle bit on the 05 Z. Also perplexing is the G35 coupe gets a bump for the 6MT to 290 something horsepower, but nothing for the Z. Hmmmmmmm, Iwould be pissed to get a 350Z which is supposed to be the icon with less HP than the G35. If the only thing theyre doing thats significant is adding a freakin color then that would be a shame. I personally think there will be a small bump in HP to atleast match what the G35 6MT gets.

 

Nissan never said anything in the email to me about an hp raise. Although, they did say 'no plans in the near future', so maybe late 2005's will get it, or early 2006's.

 

My question is where everyone is getting their info.

Fortunately NNA is down the street.

 

I got my info from Nissan customer service email. That's why i'm doubting these rumors.

 

don't mean to stir up speculation or anything, but I was going through information in the 2005 Nissan Model Guide, and I saw a few minor changes for 2005, information as of 07/23/04:

- new color - yellow (E33-G)
- no sign of Liquid Aluminum as color
- Enth & Perf gets auto dimming rear mirror
- Perf gets 18" CAST aluminum wheels, not sure what that means
- 5AT w/ Manual mode gets a new feature called "Downshift Rev Matching" (i don't know what this is)
- Track gets "TBD Horsepower", and not available for sale until 12/04.

 

Does anyone have copies of these e-mails I can read?? I'm just curious.
