It doesn't have to be more power or better handling, either. It could be something tech savvy or aesthetically pleasing. They just can't rest on their laurels anymore. It doesn't best its rivals at the track and has only two seats.
I agree to a point... most people, buy the Z to drive (not to race). So saying it loses at the track is a moot point, really. But Nissan does need to do a little more tech-savy "stuff" to the ride to catch up with competitors.
