Subaru WRX

I don't think I could see myself in American Muscle, regardless of how much HP they may have. But as I said before, it's your life and you decision. While you may get burned by some of us regarding your reasons of wanting to change to another car, some of us do bring very good valid points. One thing I'll tell you, Z turns HEADS everywhere, it's a great feeling seeing people smile and point as you are passing by. Camaro's and Mustangs are so common now that they blend in everywhere they go.

I don't know who to attribute this quote to (It could be Curt Cobain); if this is you, you probably own a Z:

"They laugh at me because I'm different. I laugh at them because they're the same.".

Hell, the GT350 beats the crap out of the Z too, both in cornering (surprisingly) and acceleration (not even remotely close).

Yes, style is subjective, and quite frankly, the new Mustangs are pretty darn sweet looking. The Corvettes are nice from the front and sides, but the back end is totally hideous.

And yes, the new American cars are getting much better in both quality and handling, especially the Mustang and Vette. The Camaro I don't know anything about. With that said, the interior of most all of the American cars is just cheap looking with fake chrome, fake aluminum and fake carbon fiber. They're just really cheap looking. Again, my opinion.

I DO have $50K burning a hole in my pocket, and I'm keeping my Z!

Wow its brutal this morning on here:P

The 370z looks amazing and turns way more heads than any camaro, mustang or challenger outside of a hellcat ever will. I have sometimes felt the need to get more hp, and thought about going forced induction on my Z, but honestly I dont see the value in the cost of putting all that work into the Z with what I have already done. Its plenty quick and I customized the entire body, its an amazing car putting over 310 to the wheels.

If you want to get power, and you want it cheaper than you can with a Zcar then go American Muscle. You wont have nearly as cool of a car, or something unique, but it will be super fast, and a lot cheaper to upgrade. I had a camaro ss as a rental car in Vegas, and I really did not enjoy it all that much overall. That being said, follow your heart and do what makes you happy. If you wanna tear it up light to light against family movers and other idiots in cars, then you may have already made up your mind!
Gl with the choice! For 50k you should save a little more and get the 2017 zl1 Camaro

Traffic light to traffic light, it's no contest. I don't dare challenge bald-headed, middle aged, minivan driving (wo)men in my tiny Z.

I know my place (fiddling with my touch-screen).
