Now delusional toyobaru owners go on chronic anti-z rants based on hindu guys bias review and Toyota's mind-numbing advertising tactics.
Toyobaru's are getting Azz raped all over America by Z's. We out-accelerate them, we out-handle them, we out-grip them and completely and totally outclass them on every possible level.
The ONLY advantage the twins have is the feel slightly more direct behind the wheel. It's fvckin torqueless... what do you expect? Lol.
It's time for us to stop letting corporations and their slaves tell us what's good and we need to judge for ourselves. With our own independent minds and raw facts. Fact is the Z is a 1g, low 13 second powerhouse with thorobred roots.

The GT86 crowed hang on to that guy's every word. He was very bias and one sided, at one point he stated that the 370z falls flat over 5000 rpm. I did some research into dyno charts and there was no dip at 5000 rpm, in fact the 370z has a nice linear power band where as the GT86 often has a power dip.
It seems as if he had no real arguments (performance wise) against the Z so he resorted to making things up, that or he convinced himself that the 370z really was a POS. It also did not help the Z considering it had bald tires, something like this will very much effect how a car grips, turns and breaks.
His main selling point with the GT86 was that it slides easily and that it is fun. I'm sorry but sliding around easily does not equate to a faster car or a better handling car. I think i would respected him more if he just flat out said he just likes the GT86 more but that it is not necessarily a better performance vehicle or even a performance vehicle at all.
