Perhaps exclusive was wrongly used but I do believe the perception of the Z is that its a more exclusive car due to pricing. A base Z can be had for a great price compared with stangs and camaros but that doesnt change the perception.

To me most people thing mustang and camaros are cheap entry sports cars while Z's will set you back.

But who knows?
They're intimidated by the cost of foreign parts but don't know that Nissan parts are close in price to domestics. Most people feel they can fix a camaro or mustang in their garage while they are intimdated by the Z's advanced engines and the possible cost of repair or not having enough room in the bay to fix an issue without expensive equipment. Also, 4 seats can save you $300 annually in car insurance over 2 seats.


The Z is a Cult car, not an exclusive car.
