At least where I live they do. 90% of c6's I see on the road are driven by 40-50 year old women.

If you need a car to pull chicks you've got a problem.

the cars have a different look going from them. the rustang is more of a BA car and the Zed is more of a sleek and sporty car. but man, a mustang with the right exterior mods and a good loud/sound exhaust is going to show up any Z IMO.

Smile under $40k

within a budget

the Mustang GT and 370Z are both great choices

the Z looks better

the Mustang GT is faster

OMG! I made it to the end of the thread... for now.

I'm honestly impressed with the 5.0 after watching the video with the M3 vs 5.0. It seems like all the muscle/sport cars out now are producing crazy amounts of hp and getting very good mpg. It seems like it is a pretty good time to be in the market for any sports car.

Bench racing FTW!

What's fun is today me and ZCarMan were parked next to each other at the local sports car club meet in the midst of Ferraris and Vipers and Corvettes and we were not talking about which was better, the 5.0 or the 370Z, or which one would pick up chicks the easiest. Nah... we were just hanging out talking cars and enjoying the weather!

Drive whatever the hell makes you happy. Don't worry about what anyone else is doing. You don't have to constantly compare your car with others just to justify why you bought it. Does it put a smile on your face every time you start it up to go for a drive? That's why you bought the damn car!

If you can't do that you'll NEVER be happy!

The new GT handling is certainly close to ours, though it probably won't feel as light and nimble given the weight difference. From the actual track results were seeing im sure it still corners great.
