I think they should keep the character of the Z the same though: kind of a brute with precise handling and sports-car styling. This is where Nissan differentiates the Z compared to a Hyundai Genesis or Scion FR-S. in its character.
Agree on the first paragraph.

Regarding your 2nd paragraph, that's exactly why I'm purchasing a current Z. If in the future, Nissan comes up with a much better Z, then it's time trade up and get it. If not, then I know that I'll be more than happy with the current Z.
