ImportConvert, many of us have chosen the Z for a ton of reasons, power being just one. There's no need to argue about the power output. It is what it is and apparently everyone who bought one wasn't put off enough by the stock output to NOT purchase the vehicle.

Very true. The same can be said for all the F-bodies on the road and their interior. They outsold the Z by a wide margin and still got the chopping block.
My point is, Nissan shoved a $20K car's engine into a $50K car, while GM shoved a $50K car's engine into a $20K car. Coming from GM's $50K car engine to Nissan's $20K car engine isn't made up for by the "intangibles" in my case.
I can only day-dream that they offer an engine that matches the rest of the car. If they do, I will buy.
That being said, I used to make fun of the Z's when the 350 was around. The 370 is completely different and other than the engine, I have nothing ill to say of them. They difinitely inspire a connection!
