You're missing the fact that the Mustang is not only faster than the Z in a straight line, but also around a track.

Nissan should be setting their aims high rather than low. Why go after the V6 when you have the capability to take down the bigger and badder V8 mustang/camaro/etc. That's what it did with the GT-R and it has earned so much recognition because of it. They could have easily had it best the BMW and Mercedes in it's price range, but instead they went after more exotic supercars that cost like 5 times as much.
