But the side profile and rear end are sick for sure! I just wish the front end was even just a tiny bit more aggressive.

Ontop of that, I really can't see that VR30 platform going anywhere near what the B58 is already smashing. I mean, I would like to be wrong, but I highly doubt it. Where are all the current VR30 guys now? I never hear anyone say that platform is mental and smashing out great performance numbers Iike alot of people are saying the b58 does. I guess I will just have to wait and see, if the VR30 is better on the new Z and be proven wrong.
Nissan has already shown a much improved alternate front end that likely will become available. And there will definitely be aftermarket options too. A front bumper cover is a super easy part to swap.

No doubt the B58 will always outperform a VR30. If you are going down the path of ultimate HP, do you guys get Tesla cars in OZ? I mean, all this talk about BMW vs. Z....pfft a Tesla will obliterate both.

The VR30 currently doesn't get any love because it has been stuck a heavy luxury coupe with a mandatory 7AT. However, there are many many people making very impressive power with the VR30. I will tip my hat to the B58, but the VR30 is definitely in the fight. Again, both pale to a Tesla Plaid.

I think the BMW is a pretty decent car, especially if you want to make power. Can't go wrong. Personally, I can't/won't own another German car!
