Going for the GT or more mature look

This is based on test cars that have been spotted.

No match this time. Ones a wide 4 rectangular neon style tubes at the back and a spherical shape lamp at the front. Maybe they should go with a single lens similar to the current Zed and have an SL Mercedes day time running diagonally above and around it. Change the lamp at the front. That way you have wider lamp at the front to try match the rear. Tbh thats virtually the same as the 370 and many werent fans of that light design.

I thought they go with an screen and ac controls similar to the 370 ipad mod looks like itd be similar to other nissans hmmm.... I guess we,ll wait till next week. Not a fan of cupholders anywhere near the gear lever. The pod gauges should be there but the screen remains a similar size

Anywho I think there is an interior shot. Not 100% sure its the new car. The lights preview is good timing as I was wondering what theyd look like

They could have gone for Skyline type or 458 style rear lights. Then they would say poor mans Ferrari or wana be GTR. Guaranteed this time it wont look like a Juke. Its going to be toned down from the 370 and less curves. I remember a few people saying they want to be able to move around without standing out too much and a unique look aka Alpine doesn't mean its good . So what is it going to be . I personally would have gone with slim headlights similar to the new 2020 Jaguar but slightly higher up. Then day time running lights similar to the new SL. Still a boomerang in a way but slicker.Doubling up as turn signals At the back tinted glass backing along with gloss black fibreglass in the middle section where the Nissan logo would go etc. Id keep the lights the same but slim LED lamps. Just using the Audi style turn signals. Front grill similar but a nice matt black or matt grey honeycomb mesh grill with bumper protruding the grill.

The production model Nissan Ariya is exactly the same as the concept. It may change according to feedback. Unlikely though. The nod to the past is what a lot of people asked for in US. Thats why they went that direction. Same with the supposed VR30 engine. Theyve only done what people have asked for the last 4 years.

the flat back is meant to be a take on the 300ZX and 240Z....lots of people didnt like the boomerang signature Nissan lights on the 370 I doubt the car will look any different than this. So some of the renderings have been very close. 10 days to go I bet this rendering here is the closest.

There have been some Silvia renderings floating around. A 2 liter 2 + 2 300 hp would be good using A35 Engine maybe or the older q60 300hp engine if it still exists.

I think theyve gone with simpler, cleaner design and it will be the same on the interior in terms of clean and uncluttered. A screen replacing the current infotainment buttons. The bonnet also has an HR look to it only that the hump has been moved forward I think the new F type front lights work better for a future model. The boomerang was their signature before. This type of day time running light is somewhat unique. The grill looks like one of the renders from few weeks ago With Aftermarket youll probably have a choice of different honeycomb, patterned grills and front bumpers. Id do something with the grill if it came like this or can always add some details if its plain plastic

lol 12 days, but a physical car hoping by Christmas

£39,999 Thats going to be tough. Priced against a Z40! Its 5-9k cheaper. New Supra without discount is £54,000. Some stuff to look at . Exhaust note was in the video towards the end. No pops and bangs from the sounds of it like the Supra and Z40! At £39,999 and £34,000 as an Ex Demo Id say somewhat of a great price tbh. Its a heavy facelift + different engine + slightly better interior for same price I dont think anyone can complain Its cheaper by £15,000 than a Supra. My honest opinion is that the car will cost £43,000-£45,000 with not much options to choose from as theyll be loaded. Take it or leave it kind of thing. Ill be shocked if its £39,000

Did you notice the double lights on the sketch almost like a glass fascia across the whole rear. It will most likely be a cgi render on the 16th. Its being called a prototype. I doubt any interior will be shown Interior wise id like a slim dash with circular vents and nicer material inside. No cheap plastic. A cleaner center console maybe use some aluminium and better materials, alcantara for leg rest. A screen and AC controls. No more clutter. No cup holder in the way.

In 2011 I worked in Charity shops. It seemed like people were getting rid of as many VHS tapes as possible. We had 100s come through. Couldn't even offload them for 50p at one point. VHS players would sit around for ages. My guess is they got shipped abroad and sold elsewhere lol. But a Vhs or betamax player will become more expensive for sure

i think japanese cars are treated with some critical bias. Some cars get to be labelled sports cars while others are not classed as so purely down to weight and/or power. The average man on the street sees the Z as a sports but in enthusiasts circles it may not be so. I remember comments stating the GT86 wasnt a sports car due to only having 200hp so it shifted from weight to power lol Its a case of i dunno ill just enjoy my car. Thats for others to figure out The Nismo with its hard suspension and almost track ready state a GT? Not so comfortable GT

Good point.

Well done guys @neo more or less. I mentioned this in one of my previous posts. Leaked by a shareholder. 370 gt is the platform. Thats why they are using that car to benchmark against the Supra

Posted by Alfonso vice president of global design on his Instagram The missing rear in the trailer possibly

If you could map it to near 400 bhp at 1250 kg why buy a Z lol

They can do as they wish while Mercedes and co have their own SL coming next year. Supra will get some minor updates. GR 86 will be out with more power as well as a 300hp version. Market will be competitive without Nissan

Lool, but hey a white mx5 with some suttle colour breaks on the trims or a white 911 with tiny details on the spoiler roof bonnet and side skirts hmmm. Its not a deep pearl blue or waxed black, Torino Red or Envious Green but still white on certain cars looks good. It definitely wasnt a thing 20 years ago unless you had a Ford Escort
