The various magazines like the handling and that is a good thing. But most will complain that it's under-powered while also complimenting the VQ as one of the best V6's ever built (I agree). Years ago the Z was described as a beast. Now it doesn't even make the list of top sports cars. What happened?
Personally, I love the looks of the Nismo and I can always increase the performance. But I also wonder what happened to the once, almost legendary reputation of this car. I still want one.

Yeah; you probably ruffled a few feathers/ I'm a die hard Chevy man & got my ~Z~ on a mulligan. @6'6"285lbs & car has a curb weight of 3350; not exactly sure what you're implying,as a stock mustang,camaro ss,challenger all bite the dust vs. mine. (All stock except for K&N drop in air filters) I love my ~Z~ & have more leg room than other cars mentioned- even a Vette....here's a couple sample videos.
