Luckily, my brain doesn't operate like that, so I will buy a 370Z and enjoy it.

Good for you.

And btw, the 2013 mustang gt500 will eat a z06 for lunch and cost $30k less. Maybe you should get one of those.

Unlikely.

Unless ford is publishing false numbers, then I would say definitely. Go look it up. 650hp

More horsepower does not mean faster.

Ok buddy.

145 more hp and 130 ftlb more of torque in a car that weights roughly 200lbs more does

2013 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Official Photos and Info – News – Car and Driver

And for the record I'm not promoting mustangs.

You have pestered the poor sales guy to death, he's probably wishing he could take you hostage and work you over with a belt sander under a dim light. You have almost 3000 post and a hundred threads asking if you should get a z or not. Wtf is the matter with you? They kick you off the z06 forum? "full of fail" is something my 17 year old would say. You are starting to remind me of him and how I want to smack him every time he opens his mouth.

It must really suck to have such narrow-minded views. I can appreciate several different brands...AT ONCE! :bowrofl:

Lou has not been pestered at all. He has been told that when he has a car I want, I'll trade my Z06 for it at a fair price. He agreed that it was of interest.

You want to smack me, big boy? Making E-threats against someone you have never seen? Am I supposed to be taken aback or impressed?

My Z06 weighs under 3200#. The GT500 weighs around 3750.

Try 500# heavier.

Also, my front tires are nearly as wide as its rear tires.

50/50 weight distribution?
It's not even in the ball-park.

Straight-line acceleration is for the drag-strip. I don't care about that any more than I do towing capacity.

I am so frustrated. I have been reading all sorts of threads on this forum looking to the answer to ONE little question, and it continues to elude me. And PLEASE don't tell me to search, because I have searched many many times. I'm pretty sure the answer will never present itself, and I will be doomed to a life of ignorance. The question that I want answered is this: what kind of car does ImportConvert drive?









Just messing with you buddy.

yeah, no...that ain't gonna happen.

what about a z then boosting it ? its the route i went up here in canda a 370 and a used z06 are closer in price range then down there. i bought my 370 with full intention of boosting it, look at all the boosted the cars on the forum, the engines are strong and can handle it. you guys are right tho 500whp is unusable on the street. its just the route i went/am taking another thing i found attractive with boost is i can turn it down if i want. but thats just me.

If I had stumbled across this thread, I would have hit 133t days ago. :shakes head: and dude, helluva way to start out your time on a Forum. :icon14:

This.

It will be fast, but it won't be that fast.
