same. for me i just duno what to do with 400bhp. so it is a great pption to have diff engines available. but for now my 370z is already plenty good.

i like jow the new q has option for a turbo four banger. it will work well where i live. i feel like i dun even get to use half of my 3.7 right now. lol

A little bit on the heavy side but still, 100+- pounds more than the G37 at 400 hp is not bad.

Spec'ed out a m2, about the same price as the q60 similarly spec'ed out. M2 makes similar trq and about 45 less whp, but weighs 400 lbs less. BMW;s aren't really my thing, though. I wonder how much insurance would cost for each.

BMW?? But then you'd have to learn to drive like an a$$hole. You'd have to learn how to not use your flashers, how to cut people off, how to tailgate, how to park taking two spaces or in handicap zones, etc., etc. ......LOL.

Zeee German cars are not my thing either.

M2 msrp is only 51k loaded out I think the Q 400 is that without options.

If you put both in front of me and said pick one is struggle and probably end up with the m2 based on looks and weight.

There are these two Bimmer drivers at my work complex. Both of them blow the same stop sign and cut me off repeatedly. I really want them to die.

I had hoped for a lighter version (while not really expecting it), but it's all relative. Power:weight is key, and the ratio still seems to favor the driver, so I'm not complaining (other than wanting more details NOW!).

If the Q/G remains the platform, given the latest specs, I think I (and maybe many of us) will not be disappointed.

Current weight plus a few kilos more + vastly more power is unlikely to result in a bad sports car, physical steering column or not.

I'm ready for it -- bring it on!

I am okay with a ~3300lb Z with the new 400hp engine if it retains the handling/fun drive aspect and has better NVH. Look at the m2, that thing weighs ~3450lbs and it's supposed to be a return to true M roots. It's tough for modern cars to be really light without being expensive or being small ( I am assuming a similar-sized z35) If the z35 is actually smaller, that's a different story.
