My fear is that they will continue to sit in between the two making it quite the niche car for those that just want the Z because it's a Z.

There lies the problem. To really compete youre gonna need big HP. I think itll just cost more than Nissan is willing to commit to bring 400+HP, to a 2 seat coupe at under $40k. Thats why Detroit use big V8's. Nose heavy sleigh pushers, but cheap, cheap, cheap!! Sure Infiniti will probably boost the Q with a 6. Youre looking at $60K to start for 420hp. Hell take a 1/4 off that, would people pay $45k BASE model for a Z35? If it comes with leather, hands free everything, mobile apps and a kick *** interior, I will. But it wont.
