So in a nutshell their recommendation is this: If you're a racer, get the Z. If you're a poser, get the mustang. I agree

In the end, they are two different cars, though. When Nissan puts a 400+hp engine in their car, then they can come back and try again with the comparo, until then, the GT is a ringer for the M3, just with a lot less refinement. |

"If we were going all out on a racetrack, we'd likely pick the lighter, more sophisticated Z." Now I am not saying that is the right choice or a 'better' choice, but the article does clearly lean towards the idea that the Z in their minds is a better choice for those at the track, as the car stands in the article.

I get it. They get it. The whole forum gets it. You want a Z with at least 400 hp. |
