The difference is the pricing man....the Z32 (90~96 era if you don't know the nomenclature) was priced up there with the Vettes and the 911's while the 350Z is priced much lower and performs pretty well for the bracket its in. Granted it doesn't dominate in the bracket the same way the Z32 did, its this price level alone that made the Z32 a commercial failure. The average buyer in that market was far more willing to drop that kind of cash on a Vette, a Porsche, or something a little less everyday than a Nissan. I still believe had the same car been sold as an Infinity it would have been the runaway success it was in the Asian market (remained on sale effectively until the Z33 (350Z) was available, even receiving some tweaks along the way after it was pulled from the American market). So to sum it up, what made the Z32 great also made it a failure.......bummer huh?
BTW I'd never sell my Z32 TT for anything in the world and nothing I've ever driven has given me the same feeling as my Z does. Yeah I have a horribly strong bias, but I won't try to hide it.
