No doubt, the new 370 is great, and I am happy to read the great press it is getting, especially after the last couple of years of ho-hum appreciation for my 350. I tell ya, the marketing along with editorial reviews are making it more difficult for me to resist buying a 370!
You mention the 370 'vert being the next step to keep the Z name buoyed and sales strong; I think the key to promoting the 370Z throughout it's life cycle is hitting a home run on the mid-cycle refresh. Instead of adding 5-10 hp and some interior touches, they need something more to re-stoke the fires of desire.
Do you guys think that the Rev-Up, LED Tails, and aluminum accents were enough to keep the 350 in contention? What about the HR? To me, these really didn't do enough to keep the 350 from standing out of the crowd.
