Having had a 350Z before I can see why you'd want to give the 370 a shot. Both it and the 5.0 are really appealing cars.

Nice pics of your 5.0 & I like the number's the car puts out. I really do like the new Mustangs & Camaros, but I would take a Mustang over a Camaro any day. You will not go wrong with a Z, Mustang, or Camaro at all. The only problem is that you see too many effen Mustangs & Camaros on the road & not that many Z's. I'm not too sure why that one guy went from a GT500 to 370Z, but I personally would have kept the GT500.

If I had a GT500 I'd be sticking with that. Especially the 2013's with 650hp

Any chance of hitting that with bolt ons? I remember the 350z didn't get much out of mods...I could get about 390whp realistically if I bought an intake/pre made tune for around $700

No. 330 whp max with full bolt-ons. Maybe 340 or so on a very friendly dyno.
