Next Gen Z will likely have smaller engine.

The current z has a great blend of this already tbh. if they could get more power, retain the handling and feedback or improve it.. thats the way they need to go. improve both.

So you are selling your Z... why?

Japan has a tax for car engines. The bigger they are, the more expensive the tax. So car makers think of ways to get as much power out of their engines while still keeping it small. Like the rx7 and rx8 with 1.3 rotaries. So the next z would probably be boosted.
