As someone earlier said, a 500whp 370Z would stomp most exotics and be daily-driveable.

As Leno would say, I have 'an emotional attachment' to my 370Z. Would I have that with an R8? Probably. But for now, I love my girl and would really enjoy seeing her become a real sleeper.

BTW, why don't we have more vids from Bullitt's monster Z build???
