To me anymore it's how much you enjoy the character of the car, and the Mustang GT (2017) when I tested it felt like driving a marshmallow with an awful interior. I REALLY wanted to like it because on paper they're a killer deal.

Don't get me wrong, I love that supercar performance is becoming accessible for everyone and Ford and Chevy are forcing everyones hand to compete.
Everyone's hand...except for Nissan. Who chooses to compete only in price. And what I mean by that is: release a car that costs almost as much as the performance cars but has half the power. Don't get me wrong, I love my Z and couldn't imagine rolling in a car that sets the bar in terms of "me too" commonality. But for Nissan to use that as a crutch for releasing the same underpowered (by comparison) current gen Z year after year is unacceptable imo.
