On a replacement for the 370Z, he said: "I know what the powertrain will be and I know it will exist. It would be reasonable to assume it will have a downsized turbo engine. There will be normal and Nismo versions."
So, a Silvia by another name? The 'Fairlady' and 'Fairlady Z' lineages come back together again after all these years?
how about FairSilvia? SilviaLady?
The way I'm reading that is that the new Z/Fairvia will be on an extended IDX platform rather than a chopped Skyline platform. That's always been the problem with the current Z, they couldn't get the weight down enough using the FM platform. Being a silvia guy rather than a Z guy it's brilliant news to me and if they do it I'd likely jump back into the Nissan camp.
That really is good news, and a great way to spread out the development costs of the IDX!
A smaller turbo Z... well that just isn't a Z is it? As others have said, it's a Silvia.
