I'd take that minus the front end. It has a lot of of the earlier Z lines. Between Toyota and Nissan, I'm not going to know what to do after I graduate college haha. New Z or new higher end sports car( New Supra???) that Toyota has been talking about. These next few years might be worth watching and waiting for.

I love how everyone who looks at the concept actually believes Nissan will litterally build the body to look JUST like that.

No. They're probably going to use the basic overall shape of the car, a.k.a. the 240Z's lines.

Nissan Esflow concept looks very good! I like it!

+1, I think its safe to say that the front end will be water down for production.

Any News? Wondering when we'll hear anything seeing as how it's supposed to be a 2014 model.

I've been with Nissan for quite a few years now and i'm surprised i haven't seen anything about a replacement Altima coupe yet since the sedan has been redesigned.

I don't think we'll see another 240sx if anything we may see a hybrid using the supercharged 2.5 thats been mentioned and maybe electric motors on the rear wheels? I hope not i'd rather see a Juke engine with 6 speed manual in a 200sx or 240sx sized rwd platform but Nissan doesn't have such a platform available right now.

The only information that seems to be going around is that the next Z is smaller and less thirsty. How they will accomplish this is up to the imagination, some say DI some say electric some say hybrid. etc etc.

That sounds MORE expensive than the current generation by a long shot.
