I think Nissan and Toyota need to get into a slugfest and bring back the inline 6, slap a turbo on it and let tuners have the rest of the fun... A V8 is a given, it's easy and obvious power.. Just my take.

A good V8 will make power... a bad one... not so much! Same for any other engine.

Not to nitpick but those 4.6Ls are great engines. Absolute boost monsters.

A better bad V8 would be the 305 TPI motors Chevy had in their Camaros long ago.

Only if they offer a boosted one that is in the same power:weight ballpark as the Z (preferably with room to grow).

You know, even though this is a Maserati...seeing that front bumper has made me re-evaluate the Amuse offering for the Z! I think I like it a bit more now!

Subaru Confirms Turbocharged Version of BRZ Engine - WOT on Motor Trend

Hmm, I've strangely become more interested in the BRZ now.

this might be the car to add to the stable after all???? I still won't give up my Z though. Can't wait to get more info.
