I blame that mostly on advertising, or the lack thereof.
I believe if Nissan invested 5% of the budget they allocated for advertisement on the Maxima/Altima line they would see a big increase in "Z" sales.. I agreee the sales # are low but that in return would mean fewer cars would be produced. This would also explain why you don't find a "Z" in every dealership. Same holds true for a GT-R. If you walk into a dealership looking for a Z or GT-R .. the salesman knows that you are ordering some thing from the "specialty" menu and you know what you want...

What we are toasting to the fact that the Z is an exceptionally beautiful car that can holds it own against other far more expensive/exotic cars.

IMO all American/German cars a dime a dozen in the US. The Japaneses flooded the low end market with "cheaper" cars but despite that the "Z" still holds a certain elite status here & abroad..

All cars have limitations.. We just choose to look at them as problems..... You can go on forever trying to "modify" a car to improve some perceived shortcoming.. Which really on circles back to the dealer coming out with the "next" years model with limitation/short coming improved upon (or so we hope) and when they don't move fast enough (one year) we take matters into our own hands with "3rd party" bolt-on etc... And even if the dealer did improve it, by nature we will always look for a way to squeeze 2 more drops of blood.. i mean HP/torque from the car...
