Also remember Car and Driver tested a bunch of cars at VIR and there was a 1 second difference between the 2010 Mustang GT and 2009 Nismo 370Z. Just imagine what the 2011 Mustang GT would do time wise on this same track. Just goes to show the GT is no slouch in the handling dept anymore.

The torque was responsible for that; and remember the base Z w/sport is faster than the Nismo. I love the GT and it has made advances in handling, but still not with the Z; maybe closer to the 350z, but not the 370.


GRANTED, I cannot remember what the stock Z is like that much any more as I have not be on stock suspension since May......
