We shall see. Some indie dealers may be interested in importing a few. As time goes on we may see a few come here and with the way things are prices could change. But yes expect £50,000 range initially due to the shipping costs, registration etc. I reckon after a year things could change if Nissan see indies importing them to UK. Im referring to UK not Europe. Its an opportunity for indies and import/export businesses to muscle in on manufacturers territories and rightly so! Then think about After Sales support, Modifications, parts etc. Whole new area doing what the manufacturer was suppose to do. Great opportunity.

Its the same door too. is it worth importing at anything above 40k......if the car cost 46k in Japan by the time it gets here its around 49k. Tax and insurance 51k....If God forbid you have to sell that would be a tough sell although I think someone would buy it if there are non about.

apparently Methanol is low emission but highly combustible. I think people are more obsessed with going Electric. Yeah I heard that about hybrid too

I get that it felt like a waste of time. Its not the final nail in the coffin yet. Thankfully its still a concept. Im glad most of the speculation turned out to be true regarding heritage, Engine, design cues which still need some work. UK market is still somewhat open minded. We still want our ICE cars. We still love our Zs. The GTR esque Grill. I never posted that render i felt it looked a bit wild at the time. Low and behold it was actually close in terms of overall shape. Guess the Grill is the real beef.

guys guys, there is always the GR 86
-
Yes sir!! Not the end. The 8 week wait is worth it . Then no need for HPCs since its not official here. Straight to Luton. Win win. For South owners Any takers for the Norf and beyond?!
-
Lol just dont take it to a HPC.....we will see. If you dont ask you dont get. Ill believe it when I see it from the CEO They can set up a petition and gauge it from there. UK is more open to it than Europe. But if it actually doesnt come can import just a case of cost and is it really worth the added cost if shipping. Probably not for some.
-
Only at the right price anything north of £45,000 could be a hard sell.......They probably read the forums over the last 4 years and thought nah f*** that... ungrateful b******s .... Either way ill wait for more news from actual Nissan workers. Autocar may have jumped the gun to get news out and get people talking. Its not official. Like Stanski said most likely a ploy to test peoples enthusiasm for a new car. Then they can decide.

Messaged a GTR sales guy today from main dealer HPC and he says management have asked for the car in UK. Frankly who cares about Europe. The adaptation for EU will send the prices further up. Brexit Speaking of Europe one guy claimed he had to import the 370 nismo to his country. So that might be the case for them. Rear lights are too narrow and small.....
-
Looks like they may have redesigned the grill during the modelling process. Im sure many saw this render back in May lol Would you rather have this grill?
-
Agree!
-
Guess its import then lol...All pinch of salt for now I already messaged a Nissan guy hopefully we can find out whats going on before year end lol. Until then im sure some people wont want to discuss something that may not be coming this way Things can change and effort could be made for UK market if demand is there. Europe is a different case. Remember Brexit means we dont necessarily have to comply with EU law in its fullest. Maybe someone can fill us in on EU Environmental law and any memberships we hold. Isnt that why we voted out for more freedom and self determination? Let us know lol
-
Yes but we,ll see if we even get the car. lol. Need more interest...
-
This car was probably built last year lol. The grill needs tweaking for sure. Rear lights need widening
-
They really love the USA market 1.3 out of 1.8 million sold wow....
-
Lol they got another video going
-
Jap guy is Tamura lol GTR chief engineer.
-
Aside from the front grill being to square i like it so far. Maybe they can rework it to make it more imperfect lol...Its very straight
-
digital dash...Not Final Product though. Interior interesting. Rear lights individual area should be wider. They seem small Confirmed twin turbo
-
4 years of speculation and insults have lead to this moment. Grab a drink. Log in! Ekona can join us at lunch time tomorrow
-
lol..... Stories that turned out to be true though in regards to a facelift etc. Youll see how close the renders are in a few minutes. The only thing that will be different will probably the front bumper grill area. Page 1 and some other pages I mentioned it being a facelift. Which is why the 370 comments are funny. I expect a physical car too. But hey I digress. Bringing you the good stuff always! Friends?
-
Carrera or 4S or Turbo S or GT3 or GT2 lol...I cant keep up literally

When I traded in the 350Z with its full custom exhaust waking up the town. I felt a bit sad. Being a passenger as the salesman drove it was great. The 370 was a more refined version. Yeah its bulkier and seating position is higher. The extra power was great and increased road presence much better. A bit thirstier but forgiving all the same. A bit of work could be done to make it better especially extra sound deadening carpets in the trunk and wheel wells. An exhaust and uprated clutch. I went in my brothers naturally aspirated 2015 911 carrera. 350hp. Acceleration 4 seconds and under. Just great noise and character. Noisy exhaust from factory and pdk. He paid £80,000 used. I got the 350 and 370 before he did. I think i had to agree it was a great car before it got written off. Rare spec. Id still class the 370z as refined compared to the 350 DE. Thats just me or maybe I need to raise my standard lol
