the smaller sports car needs 250hp + and the z needs to hit 400 or more.
The future is lighter weight, better aerodynamics, less internal friction/energy loss for maximum efficiency. Like Mike said, a 240hp, 2400lbs Z would be more fun than a 330hp, 3300lbs Z, all other things being equal. I don't think 2400lbs on a 240hp car would be possible in the next few years unless it's crazy expensive, but I think 2800 lbs would be doable. That's like an S2000 hp and weight, but include more torque.
