in my area that drive 350Z's are women, and what I know of sales and marketing, a woman or a man purchasing one for her wouldn't buy a 500hp monster. Also the way gas is, something boasting less than 20mpg wouldn't sell good either. As far as twin turbo goes I agree, at least the option to purchase that set-up would have been nice, however that could've ran into overpricing which is what Nissan was trying to avoid in my opinion. Part-time all-wheel drive might have been nice. I know my wife's STI's all wheel drive is a bonus..
