I love my Z, but I would do the following ... hope you guys get a quick laugh too:

1-Shave off that fat nose .. the hood is higher than most sports car's roof from the 90s, the Z needs to see DR. 90210 or something
2-Replace and relocate the stupid mirrors, I almost hit a pedestrian this Sunday, since it blocks the entire view it's crazy. I mean the person that designed the view from inside must be blind or an idiot ... there is not even an inch between the actual mirror-glass and the door frame, the plastic piece as part of the entire mirror blocks the little view you could have
3-Lower the front I mean, I am not driving a freaking Cuda or anything of that nature
4-Improve those seats, leg support sucks unless you are a freaking smurf, I am tall dude so I have long legs, my !@#$% basically hang
5-Improve quality of plastics some more (as it improved from the 350z)
6-Improve quality of the paint, I mean if you look at it too hard it chips
7-Improve look of the lower nose, adding a standard lip of some sort so it looks like they finished the car, rather than the designer went home sick that day
8-Go back to the 09-12 wheels for Sports Package style
9-Fix that noise manual shifting/transmission makes, when will Nissan get this right??? Sometimes first gear sounds like they left nuts and bolts inside the transmission housing.
10-Add a DCT/PDK like transmission as an option, but the real deal
11-Seal the trunk better, most of the noise comes from there
12-Offer a Touring Option in the Nismo Model
13-Make leather standard, or leatherette or something
14-Build a Nismo that is much better, lighter, faster, etc. Sort of the S model in the Porsche 911

As they build a new car, everything can be a little better (power, weight, torque, suspension, etc, etc) which in turn it makes a much better car, sort of the way Porsche does, they improve everything just a little, in turn a much better car.
