great video, good takes on every generation, being a Z31 owner I loved the super clean Anniversary edition that made the roll along with the 280ZX anniversary. Nissan has for sure made themselves relevant again and I will be interested to see all the rags do their bake-offs with the Supra. Seems like although Nissan has the HP advantage the Supra is going to be a little faster, but the price difference is pretty significant.

yea, I'm not digging those braces. I already hate the front fascia style on the newer 370z. I can live with the mustang rear end.
Body kit companies are going to make a lot of money.

At least it's built on the Z34 chassis so all the suspension mods should be direct bolt-ons

I like the styling at least from the pictures, things will always be different when you see them in person. For the price point I don't see anything that will get into the Z's way, for 45k you can get a fully loaded 400 HP car with a proper 6 speed. Supra is 60k at the 6 cylinder trim level with no 6 speed, Toyota 86/Subura is like 240 HP so not even in the converstation and IMHO not nearly as good looking. So your left with Camaro/Mustang/Dodge offerings after that to compare, driven an American manual anytime lately?

I think this is a great offering will be interesting to see how many they sell.
