Perhaps exclusive was wrongly used but I do believe the perception of the Z is that its a more exclusive car due to pricing. A base Z can be had for a great price compared with stangs and camaros but that doesnt change the perception.

To me most people think mustang and camaros are cheap entry sports cars while Z's will set you back. I didnt say its an exclusive club no one can be in, I said the perception of the Z is just that, people think they are expensive cars and most can't obtain them. But maybe thats just my experience from peoples statements to me about the car? Who knows?
Exclusive was the wrong word, then. Rare? Relatively, yes, it's a rare car.

But the Mustang 5.0, Camaro SS, and 370Z all cost about the same. If you can afford one, you can easily afford the other. So no, a "select few" do not own the 370z. And I haven't met anyone that thought the Z was expensive... but maybe that has to do with where I live. It's a cheap car here.
