Considering that the 350 is the G35 then yes...you are correct.

Personally I think its for the same reason I'm not impressed. Mid to high price in the $70k area?? A bit out of reach for some people who could really appreciate that car. Plus, its sorta going to make the Z pointless and only an option for the lower price ranged shoppers. Otherwise those guys who got Z's as opposed to BMW M3's..they're going to start shopping again and the Skyline is definitely obtainable to them.

I know I still want my Z

Exactly. And "supposedly" theres a 06/07 Special edition that is supposed to compete somewhat with the Skyline. A "TT" Fairlady Edition. But thats been rumored for the past 3 years. So i'm not very hopeful. I really like the 06 Z though, bad ass wheels and projector headlights/LED taillights!

Where did you get 70k from? I think 50-60k is more realistic so they can compete with the vette and porche. Nissan doesnt have a 3.7L engine right now I dont really see them going to the drawing board to create one just for this car I can see them using a VQ35DETT or the VK45 v8

3.7 could easily be obtained by boring out a 3.5VQ.

True but theres not much point to do that IMO they already make a twin turbo that mounts right to the 3.5...just seems silly to me
