The Z doesn't exactly have the best reputation either.
And how about when you add in 350's?

Well, excluding the 2004 1/2 model that was so good, it actually lowered the crash count when included with the rest of the lesser Z's.

The 2004.5 350Z was F-L-A-W-L-E-S-S.

OK I'll make you feel better. Nearly 6 seconds faster than 370Z Nismo around Laguna Seca. Barf!

I know I don't post here a lot but I do read most of the threads. Owning a GT, I figured I'd throw in my 2 cents...

I recently sold my SRT8 Challenger for a 2012 Mustang GT 5.0 instead of a 370z, which is what I initially was going to purchase.

The Mustang is fast, loud and truly a LOT of fun. The engine is really the star of the show with the GT. It will "out do" the Z car really anyway you look at it.

That being said: In 1500 miles the car has spent more days at the dealer than my garage. There's an undiagnosed creaking/groaning from my suspension that I've tried 4 times at 2 different dealerships to fix and have been brushed aside, lied to and had my car rack up mysterious miles (approx 40) after being left overnight at the dealer. Also, my transmission (auto not manual) has a grinding when putting the car into Reverse and Neutral.

I think the Mustang is one hell of a car and Ford really has a monster on their hands, but so far I've been pretty dissatisfied with the Ford brand/personnel I've dealt with. And I really hope I'll be able to sell the car to a buddy soon.

Both are great cars and it's a great time...maybe the last great time, to be a car enthusiast. Buy what you love, drive what you love and show everyone else respect - give them the room to do the same.
