The Z has always been a "bang for the buck" sports Car. That's the Z's heritage. I had the opportunity to sit down with the lead designer of the Z Car at the Z Car Convention this year in Cleveland and was told "no V8" in the Z.
Sorry, there will be no V8 Z Car.  |
Yes the Z has always been a "bang for the buck" sports car. And it would still represent the best bang for the buck in the 40k-50k segment if priced below every other competitor in
that segment.
That is the point i'm trying to get across!
In other words, there's a huge gap in Nissan's sports car portfolio--there's no offering to fill the empty space bewteen the 370z and the GTR. Maybe it should be an entirely new car, but that gap should be filled.
