Yes, that would make the Z a not low cost vehicle, but it would let Nissan finally get their cards in order, and offer a Z that doesn't cut corners to fit lower price brackets.
GT-R is the raw power that doesn't care how it looks, just give pure performance. Z is power with a sexy exterior that screams beautiful car. IDx is for power that's afforable in a form that's easy to mod.
In the real world though, it seems the IDx is being difficult for Nissan to deliver without it costing as much as the current Z.

its rare for any car company to have more than two sport cars in their lineup let alone 3. The best company that can pull that off right now is mazda, the miata to fight the frs/brz and to bring back the rx7 to fight the 370 or a turbo-charged version of the brz/frs (because we all know thats coming). The Z as it is definitely makes the frs/brz look overpriced. I just hope the Z or GTR don't get axed for the IDx in the long run
