It looks like Nissan is now going to double down on the sleaze:

Doing their best imitation of BMW dealers, it seems.

another person saying "400Z" was something the fake news came up with.

Looks good on the road in motion. Really hard to judge cars just by up close, typically weird angled still images.

I believe Nissan will utilize both turbo motors(300hp and 400hp) that the Q60 has for this new Z. If they do that it can't be called a numbered Z and the price will have a wide spread like the Q60 has. A base q60 is near $42000 so if they use both motors expect the Z to start about 5-7k cheaper than the Infiniti.
