Nissan learned that taking the Z upmarket(300ZX) was an epic fail. I can't be the only one here old enough to remember all of this.

I don't gamble. I leave that for the poors.

They didn't "price" themselves out of the market. The Japanese economy got super hot in the mid-90s so on the strength of the YEN the cars became crazy expensive for the time a '96 300ZX TT, was something like $46k in '96 dollars.
That's well over $70k adjusted for inflation.
