Someone please tell me why?

I hope the mods are cheap, the car weighs half a ton more than the Z. It's gonna need 600 hp just to get out of the parking lot

like others have said, the aftermarket Z parts tend to gravitate towards higher quality/fit/finish/material

trust me, you can find very expensive parts for american muscle cars

You DO realize that a Mustang GT with its 5.0L engine and it's 4 seats only weighs 300-400 pounds more than the 370Z

Oh, and it comes with a spare 80hp to boot

Yes I was referring to the charger. I love the new stangs! No complaints there, but in the end I still chose the Z. Test drive both and you will feel that 400 lbs the first time you try to take a corner.

Oh... and it comes with an extra 2 cylinders (or an extra 1.3L)

Oh... and it's a dime a dozen on every street corner... same with the Chargers, Challengers, and Corvettes

I'll stick to my neck turning jaw dropping intimidating Z anyday...

I was shocked by the price of modifications also. I purchased a 98 Jeep Wrangler last Friday and was blown away how cheap parts were for it.

The manifold on the jeep was cracked and I purchased a replacement manifold for $180 and they had it in stock at autozone! I know where my money is going now...
