I see lots of G35's around here. I've only seen one 370 convertible with a sexy lady in it at that. Wish I could find her now. Seems there alot more 370's in the direct Atlanta area.

Mustang sales.....
1999 - 166,915
2000 - 173,676
2002 - 138,356
2003 - 140,350
2004 - 129,858
2005 - 160,975
2006 - 166,530
2007 - 134,626
2008 - 91,251
2009 - 66,623
2010 - 73,716

I'd expect there to be pretty big surge in sale for 2011 with the new improvements. This compares to something like only 13,000 370Zs in 2009 and probably not much more in 2010. Roughly a 10 to 1 ratio.

I can count on two fingers how many Z's I see each week.

If i take a trip from my house to my office (about 5 or so miles) I can count about 4-5 new Camaros.

Mustangs are all over the place... 11' Mustangs are quite few though.

Still... the 370Z is a rare car.

I bought my car exactly one year ago this weekend.

I have never seen another Z during the one year that i've been driving my Z. But I do occasionally see one when i drive my other car.

I see mustangs everyday. In fact, two of my coworkers drive mustangs.

A lot of people haven't seen a Z before so i still get a lot of stares.

I agree. I've been raised around import vehicless (nissan/Toyota). Unlike the Z, the mustang seems like a typical car. Many learn to love asian ingenuity and the beauty of the asian sexy design. I dropped by a dealer with the wife to look at the mustang and the dealer was boasting about the mustang. He said, " which would you have? the 5.0 engine or the Z?" I said the Z, although my wife wants it, because it has a higher head turning factor and is has sexy curves for an asian



I LOVE ASIANS!!! ^^

I live in South Carolina so there are far more Mustangs than 370s. Rednecks. Can't live with 'em. Can't live with 'em.
