Outdated styling? What'eva.

The Z has always been an 'affordable' sportscar and Nissan's announcement to lower the price to compete was another reminder. The rebirth of American muscle and new entrants like the BRZ are simply part of a cycle that we've seen decade after decade.

It is times like these many cars look back to their roots for inspiration and I think Nissan would be wise to do so here. They can start with size and weight. The new buzzwords in reviews are 'fun to drive' (sadly) and both would help that.

If they could reduce size and weight -and- put in a turbo -AND- keep the price down...well my friends, that's the secret sauce.
