Those are great times Motor Trend got for the new mustang. The only 350Z that Motor Trend has tested that got similar times was the Nismo 350Z which ran 0-60 also in 4.9 seconds and the 1/4 mile at 13.5 at 103.9. I'm sure that some non-Nismo 07 and 08 Z's can probably equal some of these numbers but it would take a GREAT driver and some mods (bolt-ons would be sufficient). Motor Trend got 4.7 0-60 run for the 370Z and the 1/4 mile at 13.3 at 105.7. So comparing stock to stock the 370Z is faster (and handles better with it's tested 0.99 lateral acceleration) but this doesn't mean much since you can spend a couple of hundred dollars on the Mustang and make it way faster than the Z.
