Hyundai is doing it right with the Genesis Coupe, IMHO. They've about got that product portfolio dialed in for it. The new ones keep getting more power. Honestly, if it weren't for the Subarota twins being so light and nimble, I don't know why anyone would buy one of those over a 2013 Genesis Coupe 2.0T R-Spec (270 HP turbo four RWD, very mod friendly).
Maybe Nissan will make trims for the new Z and keep the masses happy, a la Z32 NA/TT, but smarter with regards to price points in the current market.

Yeah I mentioned that somewhere else earlier that Nissan could do something like the gen coupe. Offer the Z in a lower trim with turbo 4 and higher trim (like Nismo) could be V6. It would certainly expand the Z's sales covering 2 separate markets vs just one that's in the middle.
