Different measuring method, using ECE standard close to DIN standard.
In Europe only the Manual Transmission is available, so nowadays we are talking about 300 HP, same as the manual in US.

In Switzerland there are only two versions available. The base car, with cloth seats, and the Pack version, which adds leather, electric seats, cruise control and Bose sound system.
HID, Brembo brakes, LSD and VDC are standard on all versions.

European models also has a bigger radiator and the finned differential cover(nismo?) standard. (probably because europeans drive a little.... ok a lot faster)

However, hp is more than PS which would make the US version equal (numerical) 291 PS, 11 over the Euro rated 280 PS. In real world almost no Z makes the claimed PS, they usualy are dynoed at 265-275 PS corrected engine PS.
