Totally agree with you there. Nissan just has to keep the thought that this Z is not a profit car and just make it true to the enthusiasts. Nissan has enough bread and butter cars.

Last thought. The clock gotta go. Let's get another gauge that reads something pertaining to the motor or tranny. Put the clock on the radio or something. The clock really cornifies the gauge cluster.

The problem is that while it's not a top seller, the opportunity to make a profit on a margin vehicle is probably overwhelming. The clock should either be relocated somewhere in the gauge pod, or on the HU. Even on the tragically awful base HU, there's room on the display for a clock. Changing that to a tire pressure display, g readout, or even something like the active engine output gauges available would further legitimize the Z as a pure sports car.
