still looks butt F$#@@ing ugly...

 

is that supposed to be different from the current iteration?

 

Doesn't look a whole lot different than the current one.

Oh, and it looks like an RX-8.

 

alfy's sig car is still better looking.

 

He forgot to show what is under the hood of the Z

 

lol thanks. yah i must say, hakosuka is the best looking GTR ever made IMO

 

lmao xdeed

 

Just read the article. Here's a quote that's a lot more intersting than these pics:

Rumours in Japan say the new name will be 400 Z but we will have to wait and see for that.

That means a 4.0 L engine.

 

OK I lied, it really has a B16 which we all know it is unbeatable

 

Wow that roof line is really effed up...convertible?

Holy FFING crap what if it's 2+2. I wouldn't be surprised, they did it with the Z32.

 

now that is more belivable.

 

Looks like a shorter overall length than the sheet metal was designed for. If you look closely at the roof, you can kind of see a seam where it looks like a section of it was chopped out and the two other parts reattached. This is probably just a mechanical test mule, with the current Z body thrown on just to have some sort of sheet metal over the important parts. Remember the cobbled together "Miata" seen circling a track a while back? This is probably the same sort of thing.

Edit:

The more I look at it, the more it looks like the car is actually about the same length, maybe even a little longer. The roof definitely looks shorter to me, though. Maybe the actual car underneath it all is shorter, thus necessitating a shorter roof, while the bodywork on it is about the same as a current 350z?

 

I smell the return of the silvia~

 

Maybe a targa top.

 

I always wished they would have made a targa top version of the 350, targa's need to make a comeback! haha

 

What?! The 400 correlates to the engine size? We should have that the same convention... call it the Rx-130 or something..

 

the article doesnt really say much except that the car/model is evloving

 

That's how Nissan/Infiniti has done it with the 350Z and G35 (3.5L engines). With the new 3.7L engine the new Infiniti is going to be called the G37. So, it would follow that the 400Z would be a 4.0L engine.

 

Where am I missing the changes? Looks like the same damn car I see 20 times a day, every day.
