Yup, that's what both the GM and Sales guy said.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Pretty much all of the details and info regarding the three trim levels is now available here. Only thing yet to be confirmed is the actual pricing. But the ~$40K USD base price for the Sport trim seems to be the consensus. If so that undercuts the Zupra 3.0 MSRP by roughly ~$12K USD, though the Toyota has an LSD as standard and you need to step up to the Performance trim with the Nissan to get an LSD.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

But Supra has a 2.0T trim but Nissan still undercut that by $4K USD.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
For some reason, I still think that's too pricey for being on an almost 2 decade old FM platform. Supra has a way more rigid/modern chassis.
The chassis may be dated but they have revised the suspension geometry and increased torsional rigidity for the new car. Whether that alone will be enough is yet to be determined. Also double wishbone on the Z vs. McStrut on the Zupra. I'm sure every Car Mag will pit the two cars against each other just as soon as they're able too.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
The single greatest weakness, imho, after having driven several 350 & 370Z's in a performance setting was the craptastic VLSD, that's now been addressed.

MERCI!This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
So the only mechanical difference between the sport and performance is the LSD and prob some goofy rims, everything else is creature comforts. This thing looks like its aimed right at that BMWupra 2.0 and 3.0. Maybe a Sport+ trim in a few months.
If it works (and the company is almost broke) why fix it? Doesn't the supra only come with an auto?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Bigger/wider Rays Forged wheels and better brakes (larger rotors with Akebono calipers) but yeah the rest of the stuff is just creature comforts.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Yes their VLSD's sucked taint.
Ah shit, I missed the brake upgrade.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I just realized the pegleg burnouts with 400hp would be hilarious!

Sounds like 1/dealer applies to top Proto spec only?

I had to go log into real YouTube so I could ThumbsDown that. Fuck me - what a piece of fuck video.
Yeah, thought those 2 would have grew out of punk phase but not. Still as expected, this is mostly the old Z with a new skin and infotainment unit. Every touch point looks the same.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
It's like an "unboxing" video with two random people who don't know what the product is. I couldn't make it past about 3 min.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
But... Their statement of "1/dealer" is complete conjecture and even they say that. They pulled it completely out of their ass, live. So let's not contribute to that valueless rumour.
From what I saw, it still has a stick to hold the hood up. Gud jorb.
Sounds that that rumor started early in the dealer circle. Not sure if that's a selling tactics or what.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
It just doesn't make sense. Why would they even give one in Okotoks and then only one at Brasso?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Was told last night from someone at one of the bigger Nissan dealerships that they’re only getting 1 proto as well. Doubt they need selling tactics, demand is vastly outstripping supply right now.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Heck no, the 1LE just got re-classed from BS to FS by the SCCA this year so I'm hanging onto it for at least this season as well.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Damn, was a little late to the party and missed reservations.
