I disagree with the concept of a 4-cyl turbo Z. They are 6-cylinder cars, they are meant to continue that way. The problem as I see it is that they already have a 6-cyl performance car that they want people to "ooh" and "ahh" over in the GTR, so I feel they're sandbagging the Z's performance in lieu of their "budget supercar". Clearly they can make a 400-and-change-hp v6 engine, so why won't they put it in their rwd sports car?
And obviously, I'm happy with the Z experience regardless of the competition. I might be alone in that (seems that way on this site), but find me a twisty road, and I'm in heaven with this car.
