Good to hear about the update. Had a 350z and there was a lot to like about that car. My wish list would be for Nissan to take the current 370z and make the following changes:

- update the interior/exterior
- make the engine smoother (or replace with 4 cyl turbo)
- make the 6 spd more precise
- carve some weight off the chassis
- add a Torsen LSD

To be quite frank they could shove the q60s 3.0 twin turbo engine in it with the manual. Change the bumper and headlamps again and refresh the entire interior with more luxo crap and sell it at 40k and I think alot of people wouldn't be too terribly upset.

Adding things like reversing camera. Blind spot monitoring. Heated seats pleather touch surfaces. Maybe a usable arm rest? Glove box for sure
