Well the rumor is now $35k (C&D states North of 35 in fact)
Dont know whats up with some people. With the competition, rising costs etc. How in the hell would a complete redesign (not just model refresh) be at the same or near the previous models price set?? Are you even reading all the previews, speculations or even the hype etc?... and just a $1k price hike??
The same was said for the new STI's price as well...And everyone knows how that turned out
a base 2006 G35 coupe was roughly $33,500 while a 2008 G37 was roughly $35,000, that's a $1,500 jump for a base
Why would Nissan in their right mind jump $8,000 for a 370Z
just doesn't add up in my book but we shall see
ps- Nissan doesn't care to just cater to Enthauists or they would have the 300ZX all over again, great cars don't alway equal success from a sales standpoint
I hope Nissan keeps the 370Z below 30k at base MSRP.
$35,000 for a 370Z would equal fail. Not many are willing to spend that kind of money on an entry level sports car. Though im sure it would still be worth the money.
The 07 350Z is a great car because it offers so much for the money. Let's hope Nissan keeps it that way.

^ I am forced to agree with MMC Racing. The 350z (at least in my circles) was considered an entry level sports car. Just as the cars such as the Civic have evolved some, the Z must evolve.
Due to other manufactors coming out with poser sports cars, trying to cotend in an arena they are not too familiar with at this level, the Z and Nissan should distance themselves somewhat. It cannot be a simple bump in performance.
With the performance specs the next Z will appear to have, it is a whole new ballgame. Similar to how the GTR is truly Godzilla to the world when compared to the other supercars of the world.

still doesnt make sense, with rumors swirling of a G car to compete with the BMW 1 and Lexus as rumored to have one in the works then why would the G37 stay at the price it's at
i'm telling you right now, Nissan will turn alot of people off with a base price of $35k
especially with cars like the Hyundai Genesis having a $26k tag for the performence it will have
I love the Z, my dad has a 240, my sister had a ZX and I have a 350Z but i'd be hard pressed to buy a base 370Z for $35k

LOL LOL WTF .. Hyundai is not even real car..lol
yeah man your going to be so cool in your Hyundai lol..
A true sports car should run you more then Toyota CAmery SE or All those other 4 door family cars. I would pay 40K out the door for fully loaded 370z with 19inch wheels 4 Pot Brakes, 350hp, Dual Trann setup with Nav.
So I can pass your Hyundai on road why my GF is lol at you..

just doesn't add up in my book but we shall see

2. They could very well offer the Z with less trims (ala gtr). But I agree everything is just speculation. Nothing is set in stone yet. And comparing the G and Z like that? We all heard it before. Its just the same old G vs Z thats been going on for ages. Like or not they are two distinct cars and markets.. Besides we all know which one is the true sports car...

Hell this whole thread started because some are concerned about the price..
LOL Did anyone start a thread stating "Whoo Hoo!! Alright!! $35k!!!"?
Get a better job if $35k is too much. Even that price is cheap nowdays..
Exactly. I'm getting sick of seeing white trash driving riced out 350's. I know a kid that works at a Home Depot and he owns one. 35k is fine by me as long as it isn't as stripped-down as the current base models - maybe it will be just a little bit more exclusive.

they made a Nismo edition on top of the 350Z
they sigmented a small group, it's not like that is the only car they produced
you think Nissan would be ok just producing Nismo 350Z's and no other models??? that's what I thought
it's also funny how people rip on Hyundai b/c at one point people felt the same way about Nissan

There are other cars out there in the same price range that are better or similar bargins. Nissan needs to go back to when the Z used to stand out from other cars rather than just compete with them. Also I'm not sure where you got the "at least 350hp" from since most reports elude to the fact that 350hp will be near the max of what it will come with. Chances are we'll see closer to 330-340hp range.
