Official '11 Mustang GT vs 370z Thread

[Z eliminator]

I will not need the SC to beat on one at the track 12.8009 with N/A bolt on's.
When i get my stage 2 GTM SC, 11.7's should be close. Why pick on a Mustang when i will be a stock GTR's worst nightmare at the drag strip.

So what will you do when you meet a N/A Bolt-on 10 second Mustang?

Seriously dude, you always do this. Your car is modded and you try to compare it to STOCK cars.

You're not going to be a GT-R's worst nightmare, either. How many GTRs that go to the track are stock? I was just watching one run 10.07 @ 140 on street tires last Friday.

Not trying to discount what you've done with your Z, but let's be realistic. You can't come in and say, "well, when I'm modded I'll totally beat up on those stock Mustangs/GTRs/etc!"

Yeah, M4A1 I agree with almost everything you say, you even had a red 370z didn't you? Maybe you're my alternate self with an internet connection that lets you talk into the multiverses...

Anyways, I was very close to going your route, except the $5-6k on top of my 370z for an '11 Mustang GT is NOT worth it. If you guys were really concerned about best performance you should have bought a c5z06 for marginally less than the Z or GT.

But hey, it's whatever you love and sometimes I see a 5.0 and think about what could have been and realize I'm a classic muscle car guy at heart and I already got one of those so a sports car just makes more sense. Alright, sorry for talking your ears off. I would like to note I find it funny that three of our active members got '11 5.0's and are still posting. Glad to see you guys aren't stupidly brand loyal like most mustang guys are.

I'm just waiting for the day I can pick up a c6z06 for $30k. That'll be the day!

I'm a car guy first and foremost. I love Z cars and this forum is the best I've ever been on, so I've got no reason to leave. I've said it a few times before, but, "once a Z owner, always a Z owner."

Because mustangs run better than 12.8's stock. They are already in the 8's with a lot of mods. Any 370's in the 8's yet? You just won't win this one in the speed department, stock/stock, or mod/mod.

Throw in the fact that all a GT-R owner needs to do is get a tune and poof, he's walking away into the sunset.

And aren't there a couple bolt-on 370s running quicker than 12.80 already?
