Default 370z vs 2004 stang GT

yes i commited a sin and traded my 2001 TA in for a 370z. and dont regret it any lol.

anywho. ran a 04 stang GT from a dig. im stock obviously and he im guessing had exhaust and some meaty tires in the back other then that no clue assuming that was it.

we ran from a dig he honked it off and i even gave him the hit and by 70-90mph i had 3-4 cars on him and just let off. and we both deadhooked so there wasnt any driver error from his part that i could tell. anyhow was my first run in the car. though i probably shouldnt have since i only got about 700 miles on it. but i couldnt help myself since he was goosing his throttle infront of me for a good mile or so before we decided to go at it.

first time to even go wot on it and i barely had any wheel spin these cars just grip really well even with the lil 245's on the back. ive been very impressed with all aspects of the car so far.

Good kill. Should've gotten the sports package with 275 rears. But, I've driven 2 370's I like'em. First mod 4.083 gears and you will **** bricks.

i would have liked the 275s. but there is no real need for them in stock form. and yea i seen the one guy who has the 4.08 gears running like 12.5 or 6 with that and intake/exhaust. at like 110mph. these cars seem to have very restrictive intake/exhausts stock

that i do. and i love the 7spd auto. your in good rpm range at all times pretty much. i really cant find anythign i dont like about the car atm. other than they do have blind spot at the 30ish degree angels behind you on each side. but its mirros are actually large and show a good portion of whats behind you. so its not to bad.
the picture doesnt do it justice. the yellow is alot deeper and richer than it looks.

I hate the headlights and front grille but I love the interior of them. They feel very "race carish". And points taken away from you for getting an automatic sir...

He also needs to turn in his man card. Sounds like a nice car and good kill.

sorry stopsign but the a7 is quicker than the m6 there is almost no difference in power between the the two on the dyno. so the m6 advantage is gone from the start. ntm i can go into manual mode with my tapshift or the shifter . but the a7's have been tearing up the m6 guys 1/4 wise. nissan has a good thing going with these new trannys there pumping out

i dont need a man card when i got girls drooling to ride with me lol

*******.

Hey I heard that the 370Z comes with a personal storage comp for the driver's tampons. How many do you usually take with you?

Yep, those stickheads just cant admit that an auto is the way to go. Kinda like the A4 GTO being faster than the M6 on the drag strip AND top speed: but everyone considers the M6 to be the only car to get...

I do have a problem with this quote though:

Come on man, leave those brain dead crack hoes alone at the homeless shelter! A girl with drool hanging out the side of her mouth might be an "easy" date, but have a little self respect! Man card officially revoked.

Ugh, pre '05 stangs have no guts at all. Even the '05-'10 3-valves are just ok. Bottom line is using a non-FI Mustang (especially a weak 2004) as a measuring stick for a 370z is an underwhelming comparison. At least you're not killing Civics, right?
