It looks like Nissan in the UK is trying to keep the price of the new Z down to compete with the Audi TT and others, lets hope Nissan in the U.S. will do the same. Also there is talk of a Twin-Turbo V6 for the 350 that will also be in the next Skyline GT-R. Looks like this is going to be one sweet ride.......

yes i knew they were gonna have to turbo it.

 

That would be sweet but I don't think the Turbo is aimed for the US.

 

How much is 25,000 British Pound in US Dollar's?

 

I think its close to $40k...haven't been there in almost 2 years. 1.65 to 1.00 was about what it was. Cars are more expensive there though.

 

*waiting for nick's OT comment*

 

Currently 1.46 = 1.00
So...$36500 US

 

my dad already put $1000 down for one, i think he's 3rd on the list

 

36500 for a TT 350Z is not that bad.

 

sorry for the delayed post...just got back from surgery.......THIS IS OT!!!!!!

 

woohoo!

what surgery?

 

It was definitely feasible, but I didn't know if Nissan would do it or not. Our VQ30DE is available in a tt configuration, so why not tt the 3.5, right? I would've expected a bit more power from it though. I think Nissan might be holding back a bit. A tt system should be adding more than just 50hp to the 3.5L. After all, the 3L tt gets at least an 86hp gain(up to 276).

The UK always gets smaller base engines because of the price of fuel there. I doubt we'll get the 3L version of the Z. After this year, the VQ30DE won't even be used in the US anymore. Besides, you'd have Altimas making over 30hp more, which wouldn't look good. Our base model will likely be the 286hp(if not more) model. I imagine it'd definitely be under $30k. It'll be nice to see how it runs with an S2000.
