Why are there so many very low mileage Zs for sale?

That thing that mustangs have basically always sucked at. The 11s have gotten a lot better, though.

Basically every track comparison i've seen between the two cars only shows the mustang going faster on the sections of track are straightaways.

Yep, go look at their recent test where they obviously threw the Z under the bus on their score, and then look at all the handling tests....the Z beat the Mustang on all of them except the one part of the track that is straight.

And this is why I meant by all the 5.0 tards needing to be banned. Nobody comes to the370z.com to read about "me too" people driving mustangs.

funny...thought they were tied on the non-straight sections...





You can keep wishing for guys like Steve and I to get banned, but the fact is, we're usually the first to help in any Z related technical thread...

Doesn't matter if your helping once or twice and spreading your condescending ******** around 10 or 12 times. Seriously...nobody gives a crap that you think the mustang is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Go hang out on corral and GTFO.


EDIT: and you can't even read, adding up the turning sections puts the Z .1 faster.

the mustang weighs more and has a solid rear axle, so what exactly does this say about the Z...

I have yet to see any 5.0 owner on this board bash the Z outright or claim the GT is the greatest. I have however seen many butthurt Z owners. you need to chill out dude.

Is there an alternate 370z forum? Because every single on here turns into some BS about 5.0 mustangs and im tired of looking at it.

take a look at the time minus straights...they are the same.


I'm not here to bash the Z. You'll find I pretty much haven't brought up a comparison outside of my review...in the "Other Cars" section.

I've got no need to justify my car choice, and I've got no beef with the Z. It's still one of my favorites amongst the many cars I've owned, it just wasn't quite what I wanted at the time.

I just get annoyed when I see people posting subjective opinions as objective facts, or unsubstantiated claims. If you like the Z, more power to you. Most of my friends are still in 370z's because they like them... I have no beef with that. I've never been a dude who has anything to prove, and I don't care if my car is the fastest or the slowest...or whether other people like it or hate it. I recommend taking the same approach-- you will find life much less stressful

having owned an EK and an '11 mustang, I call bs. Unless you are running a set of tires that stick a couple inches out past the fender on the EK, there's at least a tenth of a G more grip in even a non-brembo mustang.




I'm gonna step out of this thread before I get frustrated with closed-minded people...
Ahh, but in that turn, there is a horrific bump on the right hand side and my Civic handled the bump with no problems. I have curb rash on my right rear passenger rim as a reminder that my rustang hit the curb at a much slower speed trying to negotiate a bump that I forgot about after sundown. It has nothing to do with G's and everything to do with the crappy highways in Louisiana.

Aside from the squeaktastic interior, that rear end bump shift is extremely annoying and has been getting on my nerves more and more lately. In all honesty, every solid rear axle vehicle I've owned exhibited that sort of issue.

Though it's sad that even my 240sx has like 3x the cargo space than my Z...or even the old 280zx I use to own that has like 2x the cargo space.
It does have more then the 300ZX though...not that thats saying much. lol

This is one of the best Z site you will find. You will always find BS in any public forum.

Just don't take it personal and walk away from the computer.
