You can't even determine that until we see what the capabilities of the next gen japanese imports are like??? No other NA v6 domestic or import is as fast as the Z in the price range. No car in its price range can put down the numbers and have the level over overall balance that the Z has. I'm not saying the Z is the best car out there? But there is no other car in the price range that can put down this much power while cutting corners the way this car does while giving the driver a complete sense of feeling at one with the car. Its a formula that's rarely done on a high powered car unless you buy a porsche or better.

Only time will tell.

Like my opinion in the post you quoted, all of those points are subjective. I just think that years from now it will be just another one of those nice sports cars from yesterday that people would love to get their hands on (if societal circumstance allows) as a project car, weekend toy, racer, etc... just maybe a little harder to find than a 350. I don't necessarily see it being a "collectible" in the truest sense of the word...

Oh well, I don't really understand the "sports car tradition" so it doesn't even matter.

Not a collectible, but it beats seen a Camaro, Challenger and Mustang every other car you pass by in the daily basis.

I was actually shocked to see those AP2 vs Z34 sales numbers. I had no clue.

To show how low the sales of the 370z have been.

There were more 350z's sold in 2003 than all the 370z's to-date

And there have been fewer 370s sold to date than were planned for the first year (30k).
