Cutting edge technological breakthroughs left and right in the car like srm and vvel. Rays engineering wheels... Not enkei's or some other middle brand. Rays!!! Akebono brakes on the Z are the shortest real world stopping brakes under 70k. carbon fiber driveshaft and radiator housing and high grade aluminum everywhere.

Why does the Z need to be as fast as a mustang? i say make it a permanently low volume car in the USA. 3k units a year including nismo models and sport pkg. let us bid for a Z. American market doesnt deserve the next gen Z or the GT-R. Everyone buy a mustang if they care that much about straight line... let europe and asia keep enjoying what we cant understand in america.

I totally understand now why it took 30 years for nissan to bring the skyline this way. Most just don't get it.



I agree 100%. If you want a car with a V8, RWD and just like every other "chach" car out there, get a Mustang, Corvette or Challenger. If you want something that is faster than 95% of the vehicles on the road, and a truely unique car, get a Z! If you want a Z that is as fast as the cars listed, then you are only a few mods away.
