Pity they did not tell him that car he was driving was a Fairlady 240ZG and that the white car was a later model not a early one.

I personally can't sand Jay Leno either so it just makes him look even more of an idiot

He IS a buffoon, it annoys me a little that he's got so much money all for just being good at chatting lol. At least he spends it well

Thanks for the 'heads up' Dan.

You're too critical guys - it beats Eastenders any day.

Thanks. Enjoyed the video - much preferred the look of the white car. Personally not a fan of bolt-on bits. Leno is sort of likeable but irritating in equal measure.

Has anybody seen this weeks Auto Express?

If the 'new' 240Z is like the artists impression then it looks like it's going to be a Megane clone. 4 cylinder (turbo) to start with but maybe a 6 later. 2014 intro I think.

Not impressed tbh.

What a stupid article. Eye-catching headline for a car that seemingly has nothing to do with the 240Z. A four-door hybrid? Gimme a break...

I cannot imagine that the next generation Z will be anything remotely like that. A reimagined 240z is going to have to play catch-up to the GT86/BRZ - that must be where Nissan focus their efforts if a lighter, smaller displacement Z is on the cards.
