Well thats been proven time and time again to not be true. Thats like saying a wrx is faster than a wrx sti. Its what non sti owners argue.
Lets be mature and check the facts before we all sound like BMW owners now lol. Facts are facts no matter how much I dislike that.

Edmunds did the test side by side, braking distance gap is less than the other magazine but its the same picture.

Track Tested: 2009 Nissan Nismo 370Z vs. 2009 Nissan 370Z Touring

Partly it's the front bumper design resulting in lack of cooling vs the normal bumper. Nissan sacrificed performance for asthetic reason mostly. It is an unacceptable disadvantage vs the sport pkg cars. That's a fact.

It's a dead horse that's been beaten
