Off topic... Anybody else excited about the new 2023 Nissan Z? I know I am! Same motor in the in the Infinity Q50 makes 600whp+ with no issues. The new Z will be my midlife crisis sports car lol.

I'm somewhat excited about it. Mostly for the fact that they haven't killed off the Z yet and they're continuing it with a newer model. I do like the new Z and I hope it is successful and sells well. I think it will be successful because of the usual younger buyers and the older generations wanting it as well. Because of the somewhat retro styling and manual transmission it seems to be very popular among the older guys in the clubs. I've considered it myself, but in the end it mostly just mirrors the modifications I have done to my 91 TT so not sure it would be worth it for me.

Agreed. I totally get what you mean. I'm trying to decide if I want a new sports car (the Z) or if I still want to import either a 1994-1996 Rx7 or a 1996 Mk4 Supra... Love the new look of the Z and everything it comes with and its potential to make big power considering what AEM has done with that powerplant (their Q50 infinity runs 9.8 seconds 1/4 mile with little over 1,000whp).
