Hah you quote faster than I edit. The Mustang is in the enviable position of having high enough sales volume to be able to afford a one-off variation for more serious use. We have the Nismo edition in that role, and I totally agree the Nismo should come with an oil cooler and better braking.
The clutch I'm not so fond of compromising on though. Changing out a clutch (to get back to the short quick version we have today) is kind of invasive and expensive, and I'd rather it have a more-tracky clutch in the compromise than a more commuter-friendly one. |

i'd rather take the z though, with its flaws on oil cooler and brake pads and clutch (things i can fix) vs certain track capable cars with a super awful interior which i cannot change.

 I bounce back and forth. When I hammer on my Z06, I wouldn't trade it for anything. When I am stuck in traffic or just cruising on the freeway, sometimes I wish I had the 370Z and an extra $500 a month. |
