yeah, it will be a real shame if a 350z beats them! It is a sweet azz 350 they chose though.

The April motor trend that I got yesterday has a small article on it, says 370 against 370, but Nissan said any Z.

You know they are just going to turn this into a marketing ploy for nismo performance and nissan... If they picked any of our 370z's it would look badly on them because most of us have similar mods and pushing more power or have less power and better suspension setups...

I bet it is between 350z, 300zx and 280z...

there is already enough articles out there on the 350z vs 370z and so forth so I really hope they choose to avoid this. even though it is somewhat modded I dont think it is a true measure. I was excited to think about one of our modded z's going up against what the crowd thought would be the best products at that time.

3 picks are in. I'm pretty shocked they didn't pick at LEAST 1 370. That's really lame IMO. The title is "Project 370Z" but they don't want to challenge another 370? Dumb.

So much for equal opportunity. Should have had the fans pick... That's what they did with their car. At least it would have been impartial to any of their motives.

I have no problem with those they picked but I feel we should all get on there and post up a challenge to nissan and motortrend and call them out to come to zdays and put their "champ" up against our cars. wonder how they would respond to that challenge.

Lol, I didn't even know there was an FB page for this. We were talking about this on FB, and I called that a Datsun was going to win this on the 22nd.

Looking at the final 3, I think "nuff said". The only reason the others have a chance is because of their power, but that 240 looks sweet at least.

Not many with actual track experience who went in. Pity you didn't get chosen :-/. Laughing at the guy who commented about my "stock" 370 and how he should have entered.

I guess track-prepping the car is stock, now. GOTTA GET DEM TE-37'S AND SLAM IT TO THE GROUND TO HIT THE TWISTIES, BRAH
