Default Test Drove Nismo 370Z & Corvette Z06 Back to Back.....

This morning I test drove a Nismo 370Z and a Z06 back to back. Drove the Nismo first, then jumped right into the Z06. Z06 has more power and actually a smoother ride. Having said that I'd take the Nismo any day. I was surprised how much more I liked the Nismo. I've always loved the Z06, but it wasn't even close, the Nismo was so much better built and seems to have just the right balance. A true sports car vs a muscle car. Now I gotta find the right one to buy.

Nothing special about this thread just wanted to tell you guys you've got an awesome car.

Enjoy your cars guys! Hope to join your ranks soon.

Thanks. Like the Maxima, but will probably have to ditch it to get the Z.
