Optima SX engine is very similar to what is in my car, wouldn't be surprised to see close to their production value. Either way, looks promising.

This has my attention too. One article says they are working on a production model, others say it has a snowball's chance in hell.

Please oh please don't let this one be a cocktease. Also, please make the rear an actual liftback so it's like a little shooting brake.

:facepalm: They could bring back the 240sx or a lighter Z and they are bringing back an abomination.

And this quote to follow up to it as well. (UGHHHHHHHHHHH). Cause the difference between a manual and crappy auto paddle shifters is good enough.

"He went on to hint that the IDx might have a manual transmission, or at the very least, paddle shifters."

And knowing Nissan, it'd be paddle shifters talking to a CVT. Which is like, totally the same thing as a real manual gearbox, right?!
