Bad sales new for z's

The 2003 350z started in the $26k range, that is why they sold a ton of them. The current Z prices are too high to get high sales volume. The next Z needs to have a base model in the $26k range again and a 2+2 option again and it would compete well against the BRZ.

No 2+2 option, keep it 2 seater only, but I agree on lowering the price per the current performance. If they opted to do a 3.0L and add boost at the current price point it would be worth it.

You're also comparing the 2003 economy with the 2013 economy, which has TONS of reasons why the 350Z sold so well.
