I know this is quibbling in the details, but no 370z has ran a 12 second quarter mile and when they starting getting close to hitting the 12's, people will be quibbling over thenths of a second.

I love my Z, but they are just not that fast....At least until someone gets a forced induction kit to market.
Sorry man got my mags confused here is the link. Its was C&D. Also the auto did 0-60 in 4.6 seconds and did the 1/4 in 13.1 @ 108mph. That is the fastest time recorded yet for the 370z. Im betting that at a prepped track an Auto 370z will be close to hitting 12's @ maybe 109-110mph but Im probably being too optimistic. Teh mags dont test 1/4 at prepped tracks thus my argument for the 370Z doing better numbers at a dedicated 1/4 facility. This is all speculation however but with the C&D results it looks like a 12 sec bonestock 370z is at the very least a probability. Thus also my entire arguement as to why a full bolt on 370z may just give that V8 M3 a run.
