With regards to the Cayman comparison I think Nissan are being a little unfair. They're comparing the Z to a car Porsche no longer make, a pre-2009 2.7 Cayman. The current model is a 2.9 Cayman and even then I think they should really be comparing to the 3.4 Cayman S. Then the stats wouldn't work in Nissan's favour of course Still love the Z though

I believe they're being plenty fair - looking at comparable price points. I don't think they're even shaming the Porsche - it's not possible; and that's a soon to be legendary car, since it's arguably a better buy than a 911.

Given the price, the Z's hard to beat. Can you buy more and get more? Of course - but Nissan likes keeping the sport car behemoths on their toes.

When the GT-R came out, even the Italians were tweaking their supercars for better numbers, since Nissan undercut the price point. Did it shame the Gallardos and 430's? Nah - but it did give rise to lighter, higher output cars to run neck and neck with Godzilla.

It's a good campaign - and it plays to those that are shopping at the Z's price point. Why stretch right now and spend a fortune? Have fun driving a Z!
