Then One day, this infiniti sedan was right behind me for a long time.
So, I checked out its specs on the internet. It turned out, the least powerful engine on that car was just as powerful as the 370z and the ones with more powerful engines would destroy our cars

I think you were looking at a m56 correct? If so, I think you are basing that it would destroy our cars just based on HP alone. Although the HP is higher for example, a 2012 M56 sedan has 5.6L V8 and is pushing close to 420 HP crank. Link-
2012 Infiniti M56 Overview
note the M56 0-60 is 4.8 seconds.
As for the 370z (09 for example) an automatic has a 4.5 0-60 time. Link-

And even for fun if you brought in the younger brother of the M, the G which was trailing you, into the equation, you are looking at 0-60 of 5.8 (5.4 on 0-60 times) seconds..Link-
2012 Infiniti G Sedan Reviews, Pictures and Prices
I also used different sources for each car to insure there is no bias of one site, so it clearly seems from a stop the M56 (if that was the sedan you were referring to) would not be able to "destroy" our cars. Although 0-60 times vary from each site, this is just to give you an idea. Our cars are faster than you might think.
So straight line 0-60 terms:
2012 M56- 4.8 secs
2012 G35 Sedan-5.8
2009 Nissan 370z-4.5
From a roll on the highway though it would still be fun to watch. (although I dont recommend street racing
)
