I agree on +1 to the GT as well, it's a great car and unbeatable for the $$ when you look at just the numbers and not style (which is personal and could go either way). |

well the ws6 does not really count as a "measuring stick" of anything for most of the people on this forum, fyi

Interesting how so many people are saying goodbye to the Z for various reasons. I suspect more will be following suit!

I think most of them will only keep their new cars for a year and get a different one. Some people are just never happy enough and want something new all the time. oh well, if I had the money I would be doing it too

I'd wait it out for the much leaner 2012 Hemi Challenger shown here. Does the 1/4 in 8.2 bone stock. F*** the trap speed. This is the ultimate WS6 annihilator!!!!!

Mopar. The same people that brought you this:
If you want to go Dodge, go find a Road Runner and restore it. Nothing says Muscle Car like 440 Cu in. and a 6 pack!

for cars that sell for about $40k, i like the look of the 370z nismo best and the look of the challenger second best.
to me, it just looks super cool -- although i know some of you guys disagree. |

Some are forgoing their Z for practicality reasons, which would be reason to sell most sports cars. Some swapped them for beefier engines. I can understand that, but that's not why I bought a Z in the first place. Others simply had a lemon. Some people go through many cars, such as ModShack. People move on. I've got no beef with that. I love my car. I hope that others can be happy with what they drive as well. |

Yep. Lots of people change not because the Z is a bad car, but because they are car guys and want to try something else.

Not a really diehard fan, so I would not do the trade for the Challenger. I'm more into being nostalgic with cars that I grew up seeing and loving, not someone elses imo. But with that being said, that new SRT8 392 Inaugural Edition is really bad-*** (If you don't know what it is look it up). I would never knock the contemporary Challenger or the classic, it's not my cup of coffee.
