Im pretty sure nissan will offer a twin turbo setup through nismo. It will likely not be a trim level. More like a dealer installed option.

Bomb in all senses. And I'm sure a twin-turbo version will come around through Nismo, like Zishan said...

We can only hope it makes it to the US market.

Yeah. It has about equal chances as you do having sexual intercourse with a woman.

anyways, think it cost Nissan 1k to put the LSD in there? You think they pay full retail price to brembo? i dont think so. maybe two turbos was asking for too much, but i do think for under 40k they could easily offer a 350Z TT. But with the GT-R coming, that wont happen.
I know Nissan doesn't pay retail but they have to keep some of the profit as well. But I agree w/ you, I think it's possible for them to do $40k twin turbo Z. I thought you meant twin turbo for $33k. But for $40k, I think it's possible. But like Zishan said, I think the twin turbo will be a Nismo option. I doubt even w/ twin turbo, the 350Z can be compare w/ the GT-R since the GT-R still has a better gear box and their famous AWD system.

For 40k they better be able to offer LSD, upgrade brakes and tires, tighter suspension, and twin turbo! I think they'd definately offer it in the US, but most likely through Nismo, although I wouldn't rule out it being a new trim line. I think the next GT-R will be an inherently different car, others in the thread have already pointed out key differences that will seperate 350ZTT buyers and GTR buyers, nevermind the price spread they will most likely have.
