the exchange rate is only
one of the facts that affect what does the product consist.
the most important is which market segment does the company target for that product.
For Z, Nissan is targeting the 35k-40k segment, what is the most they can put into the Z thus it has good power, equipments thus they can make a decent profit when they sell it at 35k and also the consumers are happy.
The Z, doesn't have the horsepower like a GTR, doesn't have the torque like a truck, doesn't have the luxury like a mercedes, doesn't have the style like a ferrari.
but it's a sports car with a very very good value.
