GT500 vs 370Z

I park next to one at work... the GT500 with stock exhaust is scary quiet.

The doors are amazing, but not quite on the level of the Miata.

Of course they aren't Miata-level but could you give a percentage like say 87% Miata and compare that percent to a 370Z percent rating? Obviously Miata is the foil all others are tested against, everyone knows that.

OK,

So in terms of the "clunk" sound and feeling when you close the door as it relates to the Miata's awesomeness, it's like this:

2011 Mustang GT - 63%
2009-2010 370Z - 31%
