2010's were 1/2 way cars. Underpowered but great handlers compared to the 09's. Ford did the handling upgrades in 10, power in 11. Now the 370Z really needs a serious power upgrade in 12 to get back on top.

The next Z needs 400 hp or more. Time to step it up!!!

At the very least the oil cooler should have been part of the Sport package!!!

Actually being almost 300 lbs. lighter (maybe down to 200 if they go bigger block), it only needs about 370 or 380. That will match the 'stang in raw acceleration and it will still out handle it, once again making it the undisputed champ in it's price range.

That may be, but 400+ is a much nicer number.

2010 370Z Touring + Sport 6MT

Invoice: $35835

2011 Mustang GT Premium Coupe 6MT Options: HID, Security, 3.73, Brembo Brake Package

Invoice: $34335

The Mustang is already $1500 cheaper than the 370Z. How will lowering the Z's weight by 300lbs be possible while maintaining the same price range? Nissan simply doesn't have a great track record at controlling rising costs, just look at the cost from a 350z to a 370z. Any substantial increase to the price of a 370Z puts it into the Corvette territory where it will be dominated...hands down.
