Chewbacca?!
My Z scares the V8's!
lol...
I honestly think they should've compared the 370Z with a CaymenS.
I took one down last week and man did I feel awesome!

Is your car stock? I was always curious how the Cayman S would go vs. a Z, stock/stock in the real world.

I looked at both the Z and the Cayman, and I know the quality of the materials in the Porsche as supposedly better (Real suede, better cows died, maybe the clear coat was more expensive, I don't know, but it looked and felt the same). I just know that I would be very sad if all I got was the badge on the front and the uber-high service bills.

The best thing about a cayman is its 171mph top speed. The worst thing is its $200 oil changes
Sure the porsche engine is quieter and overall storage space is double, but broken in two. The Z is a more attractive package between the two price points. The porsche steering wheel and console is bland. The Z looks more sporty inside.

What I do like about the cayman is that its lower to the ground and shorter in height. But I can modify my car to be lower and do 171 for a whole lot cheaper than a porsche, yet maintenence will be lower as well as insurance.

If I buy a porsche it would be one of the turbo 911 variants. And I can't afford that. ill stick with my Z and when its paid off. I will buy a used GT-R.

Without the limiter, the 370Z tops out at 168mph according to my calculations (which as far as anyone has been able to tell have a VERY low margin of error).

They are really close. I didn't drive one on the track, but they are very similar on the street. The cayman leans a lot less and has better brake balance, I like the engine on the Z a little more.
