Greetings future 07 Sedan owners, I wanted to fill you in on some exciting news in the Infiniti magazine world. The publisher of Sport Z Magazine, Robert Bell, has decided to retire. And a new magazine is taking its place, with our first issue detailing how all subscribers can save $1,000 on a new '07 Sedan through a special agreement we've made with one of our sponsors.

I’d like to introduce Nissan Sport, a new all-Nissan, all-Datsun, all-Infiniti magazine started and co-owned by the key (now-former) employees of Sport Z Magazine. The editor-in-chief and publisher is someone you might know: Dave Ochenreider, a G35 owner and poster here. Most if not all key writers from Sport Z are coming aboard (still in the process of contacting all of them). Just about every advertiser has offered Nissan Sport their full support and commitment. More importantly, though, we worked out an agreement with Bob Bell late Friday afternoon of last week that will make subscribers of Sport Z relieved.

Nissan Sport will honor--in full--all Sport Z subscriptions and will have the same great G35 coverage. And more. DaveO’s G is being introduced as a project car and we have plans to start a 2008 G35 Coupe project car after it is released next June. We’ll be beefing up aftermarket shootouts and comparos. Adding more tech tips DIY advice. Other big news: Nissan Sport will be shipped in a protective polybag. The annual subscription price drops to only $14.95. And we are expanding page count by at least another eight pages since we will be accommodating the full line of Nissan vehicles (not all at once, mind you).

Look for the first issue to be mailed out in early September. Essentially, 90 percent of the magazine that was going to ship this Summer as Sport Z will ship this Fall as Nissan Sport. That means readers won’t miss the cover G35 Coupe feature and our other G35 stories, including how to save $1,000 on the new 07 Sedan.

Right now we have an introductory special of $12.95, which expires July 31. For more information on Nissan Sport, including a detailed FAQ on how much G coverage you can expect, go to our website, www.nissansportmag.com. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Please pass this information along to your friends, forum members, and fans of Sport Z. The Nissan Sport team is determined to deliver the absolute best niche car magazine on the market, and any support you can offer is much appreciated.

This will be one of my last posts as Sport Z Magazine. Look for me soon under Nissan Sport. If you have questions, write me anytime at daveb@nissansportmag.com.
