Of course, but all else held equal, more gears allow for more consistant RPMs to be held.

Price is going to be everything for me.. If they cant keep it around $30K for starters, then I will have to leave it off my list..

Admittingly speculative, but I would think that they'd keep the starting price below $30K just for market and marketing purposes, which are the only other two factors beyond the actual cost to build the damn thing and deliver it that would change the price.

I still disagree.... I think it will be 35k as there will be a new entry level Nissan sports car... Nissan has uptiered the Z...

"....finally surfaced."???????

The guy posted the info a week and a half ago.....a couple hours after you tried to call bullsh!t on his post.......

Face it.......looks like the event happened......looks like the new Z was there in some fashion.......looks as if you're upset you had no clue as to said event......and unfortunately the janitor or waiter of the MGM isn't a my350z member to snap a "clandestine" pic.



I would trust Matt's source moreso than someone who cleans out the ashtrays at the hotel.

And for all you guys that don't like the headlights... Too bad. You better like them, because that's the way Nissan is going. Look at the Maxima.

lol, so dumb. just because the shape of the headlight is similar the whole car now looks like a maxima. so i guess any car with a oval shaped head light looks like a porsche 997? whatever.

I'm sure the event did take place at Vegas, but like someone says, wouldn't there be at least one phone cam pic surface already? this may be the best kept secret since Rosewell
