The trend is replacing the all motor 6 cylinder with a turbo 4 cylinder. For Hyundai, for example, this means more horsepower and torque with better MPG.

Default Next Z Car?

Just wanted to see if anyone knew anything about it or had some ideas? I think theyre going to make a 3.8 if they want it to be a V6 lol you gotta think... the displacement is getting a bit high to keep it a v6. After 4.0 its too big for a V6. who knows, maybe itll be a v8? heard some rumors of a hybrid too... bad idea for a Z.

From what I've heard,the 2013 Z will be up in power.How much...dunno.
There will be a restyle of the exterior.The front end will have the most change.
Nissan keeps going back to the original design elements of the 240Z/Fairlady.
The original design had a longer more pronounced nose.I see this being in the 2013.
Sure do wish the Z would offer a turbo...sort of a "jr" GTR.Also,can a AWD be on the horizon?The brother G is being postioned as more of a performance luxury car.I believe it will continue in that direction.
The main thing isto keep the formula of the Z going:alot of car,better looking/faster than the competition,FOR THE MONEY!

This is what I thought the 370Z would be! Not so chunky! Not so retarded in the rear, and not so derp in the front...

Standing by
