I've read different sources that say it will be a 370z because of the 3.7 l engine. I've also read it will be called the 400z. Can someone set me straight? Also, do you know when it is coming out?

Edmunds thought, All speculation.Some think larger engine, some turbo, some interior comforts, or exterior changes, some no change at all.Bottom line is it is to eary to tell.

I speke with a nismo rep and he wouldn't give it up, I doubt they'll use the 3.7, so my money is on the 3.8 or the 4.0, the Z has historicaly had more displacement than the skyline so the 4.0 would continue that trend but then all Z's up till 03 had a flat tail light panel so who knows

however this car turns out, their will be ups and down to people according to their personal preferences. IMO i believe it should be quite a vehicle, and won't disappointing.

Here's a more recent article from edmunds with some spy video footage...

To sum up, we may be looking at a smaller lighter Z car. There's nothing concrete about the engine yet, but I'd expect them to use a motor that is going to be at least as powerful as is in the G37.
