It's target is the G37, not the Z. It's 300 lbs heavier.

Hyundai is competing wherever there's a customer. Remember, They are 120lbs heavier than us. that's a small comparison compared to nearly 400lbs the G is... it seems like they are trying to get as close to Z performance as possible in a G-type body. and they are rapidly getting close to succeeding.

True story! I remembering reading a few months ago that their next model revision would put down 350hp which is a few over us then.

I hope it does so that Nissan has even more of a reason to step up their game. I love my car to death, but I also want to see it evolve.
