Porsche got it right introducing the Cayman, which holds it own, between the boxster and 911.

Would be great to see something substantial between the 370 and GTR.
But what are people looking for exactly to be in between?
~Cannot do forced induction from factory, that is GT-R only probably
~Can make it lighter with a slight HP bump, but a lot of people want the luxury (look at the GT-R)
~Track oriented or street performance?

I think Nissan has both gaps field nicely, and with a good amount of aftermarket options the Z has you can get up to the GT-R in power, handle better, or turn it into a great looking show car. I think in the end, the Z is our middle ground car, step into the speed but not the full taste.
