Default 370 hp speculation

So, im looking to see what yall think the hp will be on the first year 370z? And if you think it will remain that number for year or two years? I see the number going up after the first year. So what number do yal think.

I hope the car can hang with the new 400hp v8s thatll be the norm in the next couple of years. I for one wont be buying the new z unless they can turn out 350hp.

discuss

With the G37 putting out 330, that'll be the minimum. I would hope they would entice people with at least 350, but I'm guessing it'll be something random like 342. You know how they are.

Why would they detune the VQ37HR engine that already makes 330 hp in the G37? Especially considering the 370Z is a sports car?

If it's less than 350, I'll be disappointed. 350 was thrown at by several magazines months ago, but now I keep hearing 330 like the G37 so I'm a bit concerned.

I remember seeing pics of 2 different z's. One with a normal hood and one with bump. Maybe a track model with more power and the other versions with 330?

328HP and 270 lb-ft
345HP would be nice... from a VQ38HR.

More HP is useless if the 370Z is no lighter than the current Z.
