Not only is the 370Z the first car to offer downshift revmatching on a manual transmission, but it also seems to be the most powerful rated production naturally aspirated V6 in any car (for the Nismo model). Can anyone think of a naturally aspirated V6 with 350 (or more) horsepower? The Hyundai is an extremely close second with it's direct injected 3.8 V6 at 348hp...but the 370Z Nismo seems to be first, and the regular 370z fourth after the Genesis and Q60 IPL (which with the same engine, I don't know if it really counts).
