I like it, mostly. The BMW engine concerns me reliability wise, but I'm not fond of the idea that it's auto only. Power wise, "same horsepower as the Z" is a pretty large oversight. It makes 95ft-lb more torque than the Z, and these engines from BMW tend to be seriously underrated, so it may very well make in the neighborhood of 340-360wtq and it weighs the same as the Z. That'll put a couple busses on a stock Z, nismo or not. I think it'll be a fun, quick little car that will make solid power for as long as that BMW heart holds up.
