Yup. It's love or hate thing when you realize what our completely analogue drivers car will morph into the next generation.

Nissan doesn't really have a choice though, even if they wanted to. Just like how backup cameras became mandatory for the 2019 model year; automated emergency braking will become mandatory in 2022.

Which is probably one of the reasons that forced Nissan to either come out with a new model or axe the Z. Short of a complete electronic overhaul to accommodate AEB (including adding cameras, radar, computer systems to the 370Z), the current 370z will not be legal to sell as a new car beyond the 2022 model year.
