And AGAIN that can NOT be applied to all 3 vehicles because the other vehicles are known for those 1/4 mile times by other magazines and board but the Z isn't!

370s trap 105-107 in good DA and put down low 13 1/4mile numbers

Ive seen other car mags and what not post a 5.1 0 60 time for the 370Z and some that have noted 4.6, so there is a big swing for the Z. It might be when and where they did the test for all I know but the Z is not a 4.6 all the time car. And Ive seen the porsche numbers lower too out there.

And i agree. Track location/day/weather can swing the ET by almost a full second... But getting the slowest posted time from one magazine and comparing to one of the faster times from the other car is not the way you would compare two cars.

zeroto60 shows a 3.6 for the 09 carrera s so they havent used the lowest but I think the porsche have a more stable zone as they launch beetter than the Z does on the avg.
