Thats not enough of a restyle.

The 350z is a bit bland in some aspects, the 370z just went way too far overboard for me.

Well, thats something i was trying to get across... the 350z could use some spicing up but not to the extent of the 370. Face it: Batman would drive a 350 but he would surely pass on the 370.

^lols . I get your point, its a valid one for sure. Have you seen the s tune? Lips on lips, mustache......ugly spoiler and rear end......nissan said to hell with clean lines in smooth features we did that from 2003-2008.

which would be a 2900lb car with 330hp.

so essentially a 911 carerra for Z money.


have you looked at the specs? Its still around 3200 lbs!!!!!!!!!!!

an 2009 911 carerra model with the 6MT weighs 3,075 lbs. direct from porsche. previous models were 100 to 200 lbs lighter with about the same HP.

6MT Cayman S weighs 2,954 lbs.

both of those weights include 7kgs for luggage and 68kgs for the driver which combined is 75 kgs=165lbs.

so that comes to
2910lbs for the 911 carerra without driver
2789lbs for the Cayman S without driver

so the Z need to use more aluminum if it wants to compete.
