I can tell you that acceleration wise the Vette absolutely crushes the 350, and I imagine the same holds true for the 370. The car has 436 HP with 430 Lb/Ft and weighs less than the 370. Handling wise, the Vette has more grip and higher limits, but to me the 350 was much more tossable and confidence inspiring to drive. Also the 350Z has much better steering. For the two cars that I owned, the Z had better overall fit and finish. There are a few exterior and interior trim pieces on my Vette that do not fit as they should. Also I drove 100,000 miles with the Z without ever visiting the dealer except for routine maintenance. I can only hope that the Vette holds up so well. Either way, both cars are excellent values. A base Corvette is not much more than a fully loaded Z. As mentioned, it really depends on what you are looking for. I went from a 1987 300ZX to a 1997 Z28 and now 350 to Corvette. I think overall the Zs provide a better driving experience. I wouldn't be surprised if my next car will be whatever Z is available in 4 or 5 years. I was very close to getting the 370 but wanted to own a Corvette at least once in my life. Last edited by Mag350Z; 10-24-2010 at 07:11 PM. |
