2013 370Z Changes.

That's a nice list. But funny thing is if you look at the BMW M1, 0-60mph in 4.8secs 356HP /3,296 pounds and has lot stuff in it. Why is that

Why is that the 370z NISMO can't do that?

If anything 370 should be losing options and weight in my opinion or its going to be sucker punched by new Toyota FT86 and Subaru BRZ. Only posuers want a 2 seat weighted down with silly options like nav, etc. If the ft86 or brz were out when I bought my 370z Im sure at a minimum I would have test driven them.

Here's what I'd want for 2013 nismo

seam welded chassis
Serious bucket seats that allow harnesses
Cross beam that allows harnesses to be attached
True coil over suspension
Camber and toe adjustable suspension arms
Real clutch type LSD
Lightweight door panels
Stereo and AC delete option
Motorsports level oil cooler
Automatic clutch type tranny like Porsches use
Nice lightweight aluminum hat rotors with lightweight Brembo calipers with performance tuned abs system
3.8 liter direct injection motor
Paint the car with real paint - gosh Nissan paint sucks!
Get the car to 3000 lbs
Fix the blasted fuel starve issue

That would pretty much smash anything in under $50k category
