But nissan shouldn't sell out the Z to be like a stang' or downgrade power to be like a BRZ... i want the Z to keep its own identity.

I never said it should be more like the mustang. I said it should be able to match or best its level of performance. To do that with the Z you need to significantly mod it, more than just bolt ons. The Z can keep its identity and still get a step up in its overall performance level. What I'm saying is that this step up from the Z34 to the Z35 needs to be a big step and not a small step if it wants to be competitive in the market. Before the Z and the mustang used to be at the same level performance wise. Now the 5.0 is up competing with the M3 and the Z is getting left behind.
