The simple fact is the Z competes with just about anything people cross-shop it with. The mustang/Z-car rivalry has been in place for a long time, along with a host of other rivalries that have been picked up over the years (like the Supra)

I have a question now that you are a Mustang owner. Do the other Mustang owners get super sensitive about the 370z? It seems like anything with the word Mustang here gets people all fired up, is it like that with the Mustang crowd or is the key word different (Camero, Charger or Corvette to them).

370Z doesn't get talked about much at all on the Mustang boards to be honest.

If it does come up it's usually in passing.

I saw it debated strongly on one forum. It was given decent respect. Corral.net or something.

That's been my experience. The only real 370Z talk I saw on the one I frequent was my intro thread. Lots of comments and questions about my outgoing 370Z. It gets respect over there, far more than the Mustang gets respect over here. And they don't seem to get stressed out and freak about it like 370Z guys do about the 5.0 here.

The general consensus is, "another car to choose from in this price range? Cool!"
