Sure its numbers suggest its a great car, but the driving feel, reliability, and safety are all sorely lacking compared to other cars in this segment. The Mustang has better power/speed than the 370z, whereas the FRS/BRZ has better turn-in/handling/balance, the miata is obviously lighter, more fun to drive, and the camaro has more interior space, more power, and better looks. There isnt really one thing that stands out to me about the 370z other than that sexy exhaust note.
You need to define which 1's they are versions of the Camaro and Mustang thats waaaay out of the FRS/BRZ league...and it has a long way to go get to where the Miata's legacy is...its to early especially with the twins relibility problems to start handing out oscars...
