Thinking of Upgrading from a Dodge Challenger RT too a Nissan 370Z
 

Have had a 2009 Dodge Challenger Rt and upgraded too a 2012 Dodge Challenger Rt But thinking of UPGRADING to a 2015 Nissan 370z in late Aug or early Sept.
I like the Newer Nissan 370z looks
The rear looks hot and so for the rest of the car also.

Seems that the Nissan 370z has Less Dealerships then Dodge has and I guess
that's why a Z370 can cost more then a Challenger Rt/
Seems 332HP is not a lot comparing too the 380HP I have now and stangs that will have 426Hp.
Just wondering when will be the Next facelift on the 370Zs?
Hate to buy one and the year after there would be something newer.
I was looking at the Newer Stangs Gts but the New ones do nothing for me.
I want to see what the New Camaros will look like for 2015.
And for 2015 the Dodge Challenger will look the same.
Sooooo its nice to have something New like the 370Z too pick from.
I really don't want to pay over $34000 on a 370Z but would want to pay UNDER invoice for one......................JT

I ran r/t with my stock Z and killed it every lap on the quarter. I think the r/t was consistent 14.1-.2 and I run 13.5

The Z weights much less and turns way better

The guy couldn't believe it cause he had much more hp and 2 more cylinders lol

I can agree with that your car can kick challengers a$$ with a lighter car.
Would be nice to have more HP from a 370Z
I like my Challenger with lots of room inside butttt think I might need a change.
Just wonder will there be change in a 2015 370Z (body style}or will it be a 2016?
Don't really see many 370Zs on the road (same goes with the challengers}
But there are lots of Stangs and Camaros
Have to see a 370Z when the 2015s comes out since I keep my cars for 3 years since the warrenty runs out within 3 years.........JT

I want to see you post this in the rt forum lol, same title and everything

No one knows when the next A will be coming out and there are plenty of speculation threads on here. I wouldn't expect one before the 2016 model year.

I agree nobody on the Challengers website would like what I wrote.
But owning 2 challengers and NO changers in sight I feel its best to look for something different.
The 370Z looks hot and would like to see what the 2015s will look like.
Yep I can buy a 2014 but the 2015 is around the corner and really in no rush
till Sept.
Just want to get a good deal
Challengers are $6000 - $7000 off of MSRP
I am sure the 370Zs are not as much off but still want a very good deal off of invoce..............Thanks.JT

I got mine for about $1400 below invoice, not sure how much that was below MSRP

I don't see the 370 getting much more hp from the current 332 simply bc it would be very hard to put the power on the pavement with such a light car. My wheels still spins ridiculously with upgraded 285s on 20s in the rear. Nissan should consider a mid or rear engine just saying....

It's rare to see 370s where I live, but I see challengers on a daily bases, besides the srt.

totally different animals, z is more fun to drive, if you want hp do what I did, bougha used 2010 with 10k miles for 26k, buy a boosted performance turbo kit for 7k, done, 500 rwhp and tire shredding ability beyond your wildest dreams.

Thanks for the input but want something New with a warrenty.
Vetts are kinda light in weight and they have over 500Hp.
But will check out the 370z and see what kind of a price I can get.Thanks..JT

:icon18::roflpuke2::roflpuke2::bowrofl:

OP I've heard you mention HP a few times, but how important is handling to you? Handling is the Z's balance to high HP. Once the Z is moving (20 MPH) it holds up well to the higher HP cars in a straight.

Good luck.

this. Z's are more geared towards cornering and handling, than straightline brute quarter mile times. :tiphat:

Its not hard to lose those high hp cars behind you if there are some twisties involved :) have done it many times.

OP u want to upgrade a Challenger R/T to a 370z:confused:
What about upgrade to an SRT8???
