CD6 platform is showing to be a good base, if they can use that to improve rigidity and NVH (Mustang sometimes is bashed because of the “rental car” base platform), I think it would be good. Also, Ford may be able to do as Stellantis and prepare a car that is able to carry ICE, PHEV and EV on the same with small modifications, which can give a longer cycle. |

I actually bought my BRZ new because it had a curb weight a hair heavier than a new S13 240SX.
It also makes the choice of any new sports car easy for me, it's either Miata, this platform, or base model Cayman if I don't care for utility of any kind. |

![]() Anyway, how about that 400Z in grey? I liked the revised front end they showed recently. But I'm curious to see how the 400Z's platform holds up given its underpinnings are getting so old. Perhaps the 400Z is a stop gap product and we'll see an EV replacement before the decade is up. |

the crystal ball thinks it's realistic that this is about it for anything ICE powered. i think we're going to see that hardcore 2035 deadline transition melt like icecream in a desert to 2045, and then 2055, and then 2065...
