Nissan is going to have to do something drastic man, whether it be bumping up the Z's power, or creating another model intermediately priced between the Z and the GTR, with all these cars coming out with 400+ hp, it will only hurt sales if they dont.

You also have to factor in power to weight ratio. The 370z could easily come out with a slightly better flowing exhaust setup (IE aftermarket) and put down 350-70HP and compete with a stock 2011 Mustang.

This is a good point, but where they have us by the balls is the TQ, and I dont think the VHR will make alot of that even FI'ed

Well, 3.7 v 5.0, not much you can do about that.
Currently Mustang has done a one up all around the, but in a few years lets wait and see what Nissan does.

Wow, I guess we were on the same page in our thinking with the future enhancements to the Z.
