Plus its faster than a E46 M3, imo that says alot about this car, sure its newer than the E46, but the E46 was a car that can get you in alot of trouble bone stock.
I understand what you're saying and I agree. It's a good car. I think it has the potential to be a great car. However, I feel that it's lacking in a few areas that can pull it into that corral.

As far as the track, that's fine- however, we all know that it's not a track car out of the box, so that may put a damper on the selling point.

I'd personally like to see the Z get into the same kind of league perception-wise as the FT86 platform. I think everyone can agree that Toyota knocked that chassis out of the park (for what it is, not a direct competitor). IMO, Nissan has the experience and imagination needed for that kind of car- just look at the GTR. However, I kinda feel like I'm wishing for lightning to strike twice.

Ah well, just gotta wait and see.
