No, I'm not talking about updating my ID(350Z) in the forum.

This news is about the launch of Real Nissan 370Z which will make its debut next year on Delhi's Auto Expo!

Read this from IAB

IAB said:
Yesterday at the launch of the new Teana and X-Trail in Mumbai, Nissan screened a presentation prior to the launch of the cars and in that were Nissan’s products for the Indian market slated for 2009.
It had images of the new X-Trail and Teana that were revealed moments later. And it had something else
Look closely – do you see a yellow car?[:D]

We don’t know if this was a mistake or Nissan’s way of saying “People, we’re up to something.”
The Nissan 370Z is arriving later this year barring which, it assume the role of the Nissan stall’s crowd puller during the Auto Expo next year.


As being a hardcore Nissan 350Z fan, I'm really very excited about the 370Z, I won't be missing this times Expo for sure.
No doubt, Nissan 370Z looks cool but still I would still prefer the 350Z Anyday!

I don't really get the point of bringing in such HIGH END cars and that too in a CBU state.

How can the normal people afford them with the current import duty structure ?

these cars arent made for the NORMAL people
so i think it is as RSM said for image-building
like FIAT, FIAT is also launching Bravo as CBU to improve image!

You believe selling 10-15 370z's or making them stand in showroom really help in building the Brand ?[confused]

yea
not only me but many people think like that
even if it is gathering dust in the showroom, the people can see the car and at least get the idea that Nissan is a good brand overseas. So they can get the idea that Nissans are reliable and good!
i hope you understand what i mean
