For example the Porsche Panamera Turbo does the streets of willow in 1:22.68 and I dont think anyone would consider it a better track car than any of those cars even the 370z.
Have you even driven the Panamera Turbo? It's every bit of a track car with 4 doors and 2 infant seats strapped in back

What I do know is that the 2015 BMW M4 ran a 1:23.73 around Streets of Willow per Motor Trend.
The 2016 BMW M2 ran a 1:24.27 around the same track.

The S550 Mustang GT pulled off a 1:24.32.

Very close times, and I'd say the Mustang was very impressive considering the price difference between it, and the above BMW's. New Mustangs are much more than hunks of metal that go fast.
We have amateur grassroots racers putting down 1:25's in Z33's and Z34's, put a pro behind the wheel and that's sure to drop a couple seconds at least.
