It would be very easy for you to transform a Cobra into a very formidable track car. Street, strip, or road course you can tune the car to shine on either or all. The possibilities are really endless.

You're probably not going to get a straight answer from most of the people here because that just isn't a popular car in these parts... but don't let the hate fool you -- you can do a LOT with that car.

Aftermarket parts are also a lot cheaper on the Mustangs.

just curious, why you decide to switch over to the 370z from the mustangs?

For me it was because no matter how fast you made it or how nice you made the outside look you still spent more time inside it and they're just horrible on the inside.

Well, to make it clear, I didn't "switch." I sold my GT for practicality back in 2006 and bought a new Civic sedan, which I had no interest in modding because it's just a waste... and a Civic.

Anyways, I decided I wanted a fast car again and thought I'd try a sports car over a muscle car this time. I sat in a 2009 350Z Roadster at the DC auto show in January and that put the Z bug in my ear. Fell in love with the 370 and here I am.

But, that doesn't change the fact that I still bleed Ford Blue. Never will. There's always going to be a Mustang in my life at one point or another... chances are the next will be an '03/'04 Terminator convertible when an extra $25-30k frees up.

You are such a rustang junkie it makes me sick. Please sell your car and go ride the pony stick somewhere else! You don't even know what you are talking about half the time. I am sick of your mustang BS.

Funny thing is, he (m4a1mustang) never really said much other than he really likes the Terminator Corbra's and it would beat a 370z. I see nothing wrong with that, first part is his opinion and the other part is fact.

Wait, he did say he likes cheese with his whine, not sure what your thoughts are on that?

I'm not worried about it. This is a Z forum after all (granted most people here don't get that worked up about it), and he's new so if he wants to get all riled up... fine.

I do like his advice, though. If I was such a rustang junkie why do I have a full year and 17,000 miles on my Z already?

Well clearly you are waiting for the recall rednek posted about earlier today (not sure if you saw that thread).

That was my plan all along.

Back in March '09 I decided to settle for the Z because I knew Nissan was going to recall the car to install a turbo every time a faster car was released.

I just looked at his posts - 5 out of his 6 posts are whining about 'stangs.

Funny.
