This guy comes on here acting like he's the subject matter expert on handling of cars after driving 2 cars and stating a definitive fact that one car cannot out handle the other, just cracks me up.
The 370Z might have had similar lap times compared to the older 295hp Porsche Cayman NOT the newer 09+ 320hp Cayman S. The current Cayman S is in E92 BMW M3 territory so if the 11 Mustang GT is indeed as capable as the M3 it will surely produce faster lap times vs. a Z around the track.

I don't know about Caymans, but I agree about the Stang pulling the Z around just about any track, if both are stock. Only a blind fanboy would argue the contrary.
