So why not cross platform with Infiniti V8 vs V6? Instead they talk about a smaller Nissan shared platform.

Yadah, yahda, profit. Economics. Remove passion. I get it.

I too think the car is brilliant for what it is.
you already know the answer to that too, mr. tam. the Z is nissan's budget fun car and they have other plans to bring in higher end sport-coupes for infiniti unrelated to the Z.

they are making a strong distinction between budget and luxury, GTR being their only exception.
