Good find on the next Cayman S. Funny enough, if a next gen more efficient, yet more powerful 4tt is what NISSAN comes up with, in a lighter Z. Well if it came pushing almost 400hp I'd still feel like Z is still true to its heritage of fast, well handling rwd sports car. At this point it's like microprocessor technology. Sort of like a Moore's Law thing happening for car engines.


Tapatalk & such etc
True, people say the Z wasn't a fast car in 1970. But that's not quite true. The average accel to 60 back then was 8 seconds stock on a sports car with 16 second quarters. Cars didn't see 6 sub 6 second 60's and less than 14 quarters without serious modification. The Z was on par with most american sports cars with half the displacement. In that sense... it would reign true to its heritage to be able to achieve that feat.
