I just dumped my '07 Mustang GT for the 370Z. I am an avid autocrosser and track day enthusiast. I have won two regional championships in Mustangs, for what they are they are very good handling cars, even with the live rear axle. The styling of the first S197 Mustangs was perfect, the newer version (2010) looks a little too "euro" for what they represent. However, they don't hold a candle to the new Z. Styling is downright sexy and the car handles like a dream. As a matter of fact, the stock sport Z handles better than the Mustang after I invested about $4K in the suspension.

I love the newer Mustangs, the new Camaro is beautiful, and the Challenger is a beast. I just think that the whole package from Nissan is head and shoulders above them all. It has enough of everything, and not too much of anything. This is a great stepping stone up to the level of the Porsches and higher dollar automobiles.

Again, just some input from someone who has a lot of experience in one of the cars being discussed.

Pretty much in the same boat as you. Have a Mustang GT and have just been blown away by the newest Z.

But it's not like a new-time love affair, as I had one back in the day. I'm just rekindling an old flame!

Now, to get the money together... let's see, Vegas trip this weekend... maybe Z soon thereafter?
