You gotta handicap the nissans for age though. Nissan sold plenty of $30k Z cars....in 2005 or so. Someone mentioned the gtr only selling 500 units last year. Well. That’s 500 more than Toyota sold Supras in their 10th year on the American market.
I am hopeful for the Z. The last time it did well, it was offering close to Mustang GT power at a Mustang GT price point, but with only 2 seats and a lighter chassis. That’s a thing they’re looking to repeat with the upcoming Z car.
