Enough of GT-R. Now that we know NISSAN can match and beat the best of sports car, let's focus on its most affordable yet capable sports car, Z.
According to Edmunds.com, Nissan brought along a BMW Z4 coupe and a Porsche Cayman for test session of next generation Z at Nürburgring. Below are lap times of these 2 comparison competitors, although one of them is a lot faster.
8:11* - 151,274 km/h - Porsche Cayman S, 295 PS/1340 kg, test driver Walter Roehrl (*mfr.) (sport auto 07/05)
8:32 --- 144.844 km/h -- BMW Z4 3.0 SMG (sport auto 04/03)
What do you think? Can new Z beat Cayman S? Or they will be looking at 8:15 range? There will also be a good possibility NISSAN comes up with a model targeting at 7:50 lap time. What would that be? Turbocharged Z?
