Nissan 400z Rumors

Featured Replies

I think they were very boxed-in on the hood length given the extensive reuse of the Z34 body structure.    

And hopefully seats are thin enough with useful height adjustments, ala for a helmeted driver.

One thing that the teaser lacks if they were going for the retro look is the S30's hood shape.  It looks pretty well flat like the 350Z hood.  It needs the classic Z's center bulge to add some character and interest to an otherwise boring panel.  They got the side profile right, but missed one of the key styling points of the original.

I was mentioning the lack of a hood bulge to my wife, too. It would probably be nice to have the bulge to accommodate a large plenum when people start modify, too.

And you know you love it, too. ?

 

Well, you know me, If your mind is in the gutter you're probably blocking my view?.   Bulge or no bulge, I do like the lines on this one compared to the 370. This time change is good.

Other features I'm hoping for - useful susp adjustments (camber/caster), LSD, hydraulic steering, traction control off switch, rev match bypass - leave these for driver options, less electronic intrusions. 

Hi, new member here.  I saw this prototype (via photographs) at SEMA last year.  Nissan invited various people who will play a role in the marketing of this vehicle down the road (licensing, etc.) and allowed us to view the images after signing proper non disclosure forms.  It will incorporate much of what you all are talking about and really bring back the freshness the marque needs.  At that time, the Nissan folks said a new version would be unveiled in September 2020, but with COVID-19 interferring with every aspect of our lives, that date may be pushed back.  This video teaser, however, may signal that Nissan is ready to go with the unveiling sooner rather than later, which would be good.  The entire brand needs to generate some positive noise right now.

September 2020 in Nashville would be nice...I know I'm hoping for that target.

I'm hoping the Sunset Orange is again avail, as was on the 350Z. Daytona Blue is of course second choice ?

Tried my hand at sketching over a screenshot of the teaser video. Looking forward to the full reveal!

Nice work!  Your sketch looks like it has the hump in the middle of the hood...  I like it!
