Mustang GT
Camaro SS
Challenger SRT8
FRS/BRZ are close on some tracks (more technical)
STi/Evo
Genesis Coupe (V6)

I am sure there are others but that is a good list, also sticking with price here. I am sure we can go up against the bottom Porsche or some other Euro cars.

Hehe not really. In scca autox, the 370's so whooped the Frs/brz's that they qq'd and got the z bumped. There aren't any tracks where the z won't stomp all over them

Genesis coupe doesn't compare to the Z at all, it's a Korean wannabe. It's no where near as well made, and handles like a truck.

One of my friends works at a hyundai dealer. Swears that the Genesis is faster 0-60, faster top speed, handles better on a skidpad and any road course, brakes better, is cheaper, and is more reliable and made with better materials.

Of course he does. LOL I test drove a 2013 Genesis coupe(six cylinder) and it was nice for a Hyundai, that's about it. I proved to some guy that his V6 Gen coupe wasn't as fast as the wifes Z or my G37 coupe in the same week. I really like the Genesis (almost bought one), but basically it's a cheap knock-off of a G37. I'm sure there are plenty of people who feel differently, but I'll take the Japanese original over a Korean imitation any day. BTW my wifes Z will SMOKE my G37.

Agreed. My buddy has one and they are world's apart. Raced him onto the freeway (up to freeway speeds) and it wasn't even close. Salesman trying to make a sale

Careful when you say that here. Good way to get banned. Just giving you a heads up, since you are new.

Good looking out thanks. Raced up to freeway speeds is more appropriate

No way .. 370Z's zero to sixty should outperform the GenCoupes'.

I'm from Korea though.

Especially with the sports packages.

All of this is true except none of it. LOL. It is quicker on a roll though. But what you do get is a quite the bang for the buck in tech and luxury with a nice mix of power.
