Consider the Challenger R/T which weighs in at 4,082 pounds and has 375 HP. That's a 10.88 lb/hp ratio. The Nismo at 3,350 pounds has a 9.57 ratio -- dramatically better.

You also need to consider handling, uniqueness, etc. Plus, if I am not mistaken, those other cars listed require on to develop an affinity for Old Milwaukee beer and grow a mullet.

Avoid the social stigma and stay with the Z.


You also have to realize when the Z came out in 09, it made more HP than most of the "muscle cars" at that time. Nissan could have done a minor power increase throughout the years, but there's only so much you can squeeze out of a N/A V6.
