370z vs. 2003 mustang svt cobra

Drivers race if you ask me. But since Z is more of a RoadCourse car and Cobras are drag friendly, I'd say Mustang Cobra.

Based on that...the 370Z auto would stand a chance if not beat it. As others said, this isn't a drag car...put it on a road course and it will really do some damage.

dude, a auto 370z would beat it but the manual wont? i dont think theres enough of a difference between the auto and manual, if the auto will beat it im sure the manual will as well as long as the driver is good.

It doesn't matter what transmission or who is behind the wheel of the 370Z, it will loose.

Um...I never said the manual would not... As I said, based on the numbers posted for the mustang VS numbers posted for the auto Z...it would be a very close race.

Again...different drivers could change those numbers so I'm not saying the auto would always be faster than a manual.

All that being said...the amount of parts available and potential...I wouldn't claim the Z to be beating up on the mustangs...the right mods do make those cars pretty fast. Stock VS Stock...the race would be close with either one having the chance to beat the other.

No, stock VS stock it would not be close. How many times does this have to be said...
How many stock 370's are running mid 12's?
