Nissan worked a miracle in the 370Z, offering performance and quality that I never imagined possible in the $30k price range. Heck, that's why I ended up buying one on a whim.

If Nissan could extrapolate this achievement into a higher HP variant based on a detuned GT-R motor, upgrade the suspension package, wrap some leather into the cockpit components, substitute some brushed aluminum for plastic on the interior...you'd shift the bar up yet again. This $60k, twin-turbo, 420hp "real Nismo" 370Z would then be compared to $90k 911s instead of $60k Caymans.
