Is the Z fast yes, is there something faster on the road, always.

Yup, we all did

I, personally, was in the market for the 370Z, G37, IS350, EVO, WRX..
the latter 2 were quickly dismissed as viable options for me :icon17:
I already had a 4-door so I dismissed the IS350 (plus the cost/hp compared to the 370 greatly influenced this decision)
Then compared the Z to the G and it made no sense (to me, at least) to pay an extra $10k for a heavier, larger option with the same engine

So I went with the Z :icon17: trust me, the lack of a backseat and trunk space gave me doubts but I'm used to it by now

Dont fear Mustangs, only the new 5.0's are any good anyway. Any old GT will get spanked by a 370.

The only reason the new Stangs are fast is because Ford finally realized if its going too slow you really begin to notice how ugly it is. :stirthepot:

The Z has a more limited aftermarket than a lot of vehicles, so remember that if you are intending to go big into modding. Unless you go straight to FI of course.

The 5.0 is the better racer, but the Z is faster? This makes no sense. :confused:

Just sold my Altima Coupe---used it as DD until my recent retirement. Don't need it any more but enjoyed it very much. CVT was fine. Very sensible car and totally trouble free. Not a sports car but a nice, comfortable sporty car for sure. Incidentally, it was very easy to sell---first guy who saw it grabbed it! Now my 370Z is my DD. Very different car but quite wonderful.
