I think part of the Z34's demise was the fact that it didn't differ enough from the Z33. There's no doubt the Z35 would have the turbo engine... I could see that causing plenty of people to look at the car again. I know I would
Back in 2009, Z34 was a great buy for the money. It offered Porsche Cayman S kind of performance numbers for less than half of the price, outran the Mustang GT (the one with the 4.6L V8) from 0 to 60 and won a C&D comparison beating the Mazda RX-8 R3 and BMW 135i. It was the recession that killed the sales. By the time the economy got better in 2012, it was already in the 4th MY and new competitors showed up and the rest is history.
