Yes these are the best numbers out there but they seem a bit optimistic. If just one group came up with the numbers such as Top Gear, Road & Track, etc, I think we'd not be fishing for the optimum times.

I am as happy as a clam owning a 370Z.

Agreed. I think you have a point. I am not trying to get under your skin. They sell and rent alot of Camero's, Mustangs, and Chargers, all of which hold up traffic on stated road. Renters will be extra slow being tourists (probobally) too. At some point you would expect to see at least one of these cars, just once demonstrating it's ability. I am still waiting. Yes all of this is anecdotal but I see BMW, Porsche, and Mazda almost every day driving the opposite way.

This comment of mine about Mustangs was originally a reply to someone who's beaten them before. I do assume it was not straight off the line.

my mustang comment was in regards to off the line and roll ons. ive raced numerous. and my 370 pulled every time. (stock)

my jab at busas was all in fun since busa owners tend to be sensitive. lol

but ive never had an issue beating up the new gt 5.0's i honestly expected better. but in defense of the mustang. 97% of the idiots that drive them have no idea how to drive. lol

I'm sure you do.

This is slowly turning into my350z, evidently with the 09 Z's dropping in sub 20k range this is going to be a more common occurrence.

Lothario... Fiy;M3 E46 = 370Z
M3 E92 = Mustang 5.0, and we all know what happens when 46 goes vs 92.

english por favor

OMG! The Z wasn't designed for a straight line. Nice to have a baseline for reference (I have a time-slip to show mine) but beyond that it is pointless. If I wanted an all-out dragster, I would have built one.

busas are over rated

Oh god.... I think it's really time I pull the trigger on the new vette. If the next gen z looks like a roller skate and is affordable for the masses! Its time. I love my z and I love the way that bitch handles at high speeds but hp for hp and price... I might see the ray in my sights.

I dunno man, these things are pretty hardcore

Some of those aren't N/A vehicles

I know a guy with a new 5.0 with intake, exhaust and a reflash, he is constanly running 12.7 ish in the 1/4....and he is worse than I am at 1/4 mile drags, he even admits with a better drive it should be faster...those cars are no joke. However, after all my bolt ons and a tune, the Z holds up respectctivly IMO, and its not even desgined for 1/4 mile performance. Even after I get this car boosted I will have maybe 35 or 36k into it and have IMO quite good performance for that price...
