Expanding on that: Even stickier tires up till you can no longer spin in first, and a better LSD.

I'll never understand you guys. You all own and love your Z's, but you constantly bash them about being "slow"... It makes zero sense to me.

Just for perspective...

2018 Corvette Stingray ($67k) - 6.2L V8 - 460hp/465ft lbs - 0-60 in 3.9 sec
2018 Mustang GT ($34k) - 5.0L V8 - 435hp/400ft lbs - 0-60 in 4.4 sec

2018 Nissan 370Z ($26k) - 3.7L V6 - 332hp/270ft lbs - 0-60 in 4.8 sec

And all of this can be narrowed down even closer by driver skill. I don't care what anyone says, these cars are NOT slow by any means, especially when you consider this is all being done with a 9 year old V6 against the latest and greatest V8's.
