Makes sense, it's in a totally dead segment. In 2003 it had a 25-30hp advantage on the mustang GT, now it's down 130 horses to the Ford. It's heavier than it should be and the build quality isn't there for how expensive it is. It either needs to become a muscle at, or come downmarket to compete with the Miata and the 86, neither of which can be done with minor upgrades, which is all Nissan wants to spend R&D on.
