I was just poking fun really, but thats my mentality too. I'll take a bit of dust/squeaks for good performance.

The LL segment grouping is based on base price, not "as tested". If the Sport package is considered an option on the Base 370Z (as is the Track package - and any other options on the Mustang GT contribute to $6K over base price) then the Base Price for the 370Z price becomes <$30k.

I think they should group by "as tested" price and not base price. And I think they could do a better job of logically grouping looking at how the costs are distributed.
Well, either way - that begs the question...could the Base+Sport make up the 1 second difference between the Nismo and itself? It'd run into the same braking issues, thats for sure...and it only has less horsepower/softer handling...

Personally, I dont think so.
