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.

A 420hp 370Z sounds nice, but would you spend $60+ on a Z?
To turn around the argument, you could spend 15K on a base Z and get a built TT with 400-500whp.
But yes a Nissan car aimed at the 911 would be interesting. The GT-R targets the 911 turbo and the 370Z targets the cayman....so another model could slide right in. Not sure it would sell though.
A TT sounds nice, but for a something aimed at the regular 911, I'd like a V8 370Z or perhaps and non-turbo GT-R
