The only person who's every told me that the Z is a slow car is my oldest uncle. He drives a 911 Turbo S. Lucky guy, being 1st son.

Slow. Fast. They are all relativistic terms. To most people, who drive sedans, SUVs, and and other family cars to get around, it's a fast car. To me, even after two years of driving it, it's still a fast car. It makes me happy. That's all that matters.

Ha! another "370z is slow" thread and its not mine.

First off I didn't close the thread, if anything the mods may have.

Secondly if anything I called you out on the fact that you were looking more like a troll than me. I simply started a thread after watching the Z getting owned on a track by a frikin stock STi which absolutely surprised me. There were pretty good post and discussions on that thread until certain trolls appeared and felt that to defend their car choice needed to bash me and get defensive.

I own the same car, and I dont feel the need to tap myself and other forum members on back to help defend their car choice, I simply started a thread after being surprised by the Z track performance and wanted other member's take on it along with info. I guess some took it as an attack for some reason. Some of you are way to serious man.:what:

Most of us knew what we where buying from past experiences with the Z brand. We mod them to make them faster....

[QUOTE=DriftKr6l;2255571]Ha! another "370z is slow" thread and its not mine.

The OP is a troll with ONE post. ????

Haha...

No one takes the troll seriously...

If anyone buys the Z car just for power, they bought the wrong car...

Anyone who has a car they bitch and moan about is just a whiner....

We don't take them seriously....

I think we are all quite aware of what these cars can do and again WHO CARES WHAT AN STI can do. For one the STI is a torque monster and well if you knew anything you would know that torque something these cars tend to lack. You put a 400hp Z with 350lb tq up against a 350hp 450lb tq STI. I would put my money on the STI every single time. Common sense. Why state the obvious and start a thread with the title " THE 370 IS SLOW!" and not expect some hate thrown back your way.

If someone is buying this car for the look, handling etc.. That is their choice but to complain because two different drivers are in two different cars driving on the same track have different outcomes. It couldn't be that the drivers one bit. Impossible I say ( I hope you can fell the sarcasm).

If the Z is too slow, then put your name down for the GTM MHI twin turbo kit group buy! I'm actually thinking about doing it

Some apples are round. How can you even say that! You are ridiculous

The Z is slow. I'll stoplight race any minivan that comes along! I usually win about 1/2 or less, but mostly because I'm bouncing in my seat like a crack-addicted spider monkey, looking over and taunting the minivan, so I miss the green. Sometimes my hands slip off the wheel for all the spittle...
