BUT when our cars are done right with good mods making decent horsepower they are far better than a camaro done up because they are more exclusive, that much harder to make that nice so in the end we'll be near exotic and a camaro owner will have a muscle car. The Z is the poor man's Porsche and the camaro is a bad @$$ cavalier take your pick.

Basically agree and purchased the Z for exactly as you say. Passed on the Camaro because it's kinda butt ugly, way too heavy and GM cars don't seem to be very well built when it's all said n done. Decent muscle car with a lot of straight line potential, but handles poorly.
Between a rock and a hard spot.
Frankly at this time not exactly jumping for joy on the 370Z gains and how buggy the mods have been. Still getting some strange noises underneath the car from the Stillen exhaust which ending up being cut in half and then rewelded it so it wouldn't bang. Guess it needs another look after two trips to an exhaust shop. The AccesPort tuning only works on fuel/air and on its own is pulling out midrange timing. Got exactly zero gains from dyno tuning at Cobb loosing midrange power in the process. Hell of a deal.
The cars for me anyway are difficult to see out of and mine gets horrible gas mileage in the city.
Expected a few bugs, but not Godzilla big enough to eat Tokyo. Holding off on going to the track as I refuse to run a car unless it's 100% to its potential.
Giving the car a chance but if things don't turn around; a new Grand Sport LS3 Corvette with headers, tune and a cam is looking real good to me. Something that is easy to mod, gets huge gains and say what you want.... fun to drive and pretty bad *** cars. People are making over 500 at the wheel just with those mods. No kidding. Still cheaply built though.
