I don't see high horsepower numbers beyond an interim DI-equipped 370z as much as a smaller and lighter chassis for future Z's.

This has basically been all but confirmed by Nissan... but those people who are looking for a horsepower war with Detroit from Nissan are setting themselves up for disappointment.
i had to admit it be you are probably right. the 370 will never have a v8 in it.
wouldn't fit anyway. but they need to get the car lighter like you said. and at the same time the next version needs at least 375hp. imo that would just be enough hp to put it bad xss land.
