I'm suspecting 340-350 easy. Don't know if you heard but the Nismo 370Z will have officially 350hp from a NA VQ37! The regular auto 370Z(332hp) runs 13.1 in the 1/4 I bet the Nismo Z run 12s!
Does it matter what it look like so long as it get a good insurance rating, is big enough for the person, and gets good mpg and maintenance?
I guess to each his own but I could care less what the contours of the car look like. Pick a the type of car you need, figure out who got the best mpg and work your way up from there...
And once they bombard the BUYING PUBLIC with tons of TV Ads and Magazine Ads, then the MASSES will see how beautiful this car is, and then they will purchase it in droves.
That body style will cut into the sales of BMWs, Audis, Volvos and other European cars in that class.
Great marketing move by Nissan.
I might look at getting one of those, by 2K9 I should need a new car.
