Explain these numbers: Carrera S vs 370Z

The performance numbers for the 370z are pretty low compared to every other test stuff. I'm sorry if you think the Cayman is "just a second quicker" than a 370Z,

They also get a PDK gearbox an engine that can be driven all day on the track without going into limp mode. The only advantage the Z has is its price.
Yeah, but it is like saying that a Z has a interior centuries ahead of a Cobalt. Of course it does, but... duh! I'm not arguing that it isn't nice, but you've gotta be shelling out that money for something -- and imo, I'm still in the stage of my life where interior quality isn't the most important thing on my list.

Thats you and everyone has thier own things they want.. But when you have big $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ you can pay 100K and it would be felt less than what we felt paying for the Z. If you had 100K to spend on a car only would you have still bought the 370Z? I wouldnt have. The % of your income that you spent on your Z is probably the same % some spend on the Porsche etc. Its all about how much you have to spend.
