Well they try to pass aston martins and jags off as serious performance cars. While performance is great on those cars, Revviewers aren't choosing them over ferrari, porsche, lambo and even the R8 and GTR. The brits gotta hate on someone. Lol

C'mon. Given the choice between a Vantage (even the lowly V8) and a Z, don't tell me you'd pick the Z over it -- assuming free insurance and gas for your entire ownership

You sound like a Troll in all your posts... Go Figure. I know there's some Z hating OG's up in here you tryin to kizz azz tobut i'd slow ya role right here n now...
First off, Fanboys haven't driven different cars in the range. I have rented most of the hottest sports cars out there now or have test driven them. From corvette, camaro, mustang, challenger eclipse, as rentals. I've test driven gecoupe, evo 135I porache cayman, 335I, and a couple months ago, the STi. So I know something about how most these cars feel. I haven't knocked any of these cars for what they are. All I have said, while all of these cars may have some advantages over the Z. As an overall package I find the Z to be compelling thus far. Less refined and more brutish than a cayman. Can jump pff the line faster than a challenger R/T, gives more feedback than a mustang and faster than the more acrobatic lightweights. The Z though not a master of ANY, it has the jack of all trades title and combines everything other cars can do well and gives 90% of various driving experiences. How is that being a fanboi? A funboi sukks a cars exhaust before knowing what he bought. Buys it, worships it for 3 months, then Trolls it out the second he finds a new car To fanboy... Learn to rent possible cars, and get good enough credit to warrant getting solo 2 hour long test drives, and you don't have to resort to calling someone who's driven every car you wish you can touch a fanboy. |

You're definitely spending a good chunk on mods, but I don't think it's going to put you into the new cayman S or M3 price range. We're talking almost 30k in mods! I can't even think of enough mod sot hit that mark.

My Z will run on any track with about 2k in mods I done to the car. 1k on brakes, 700 on suspension and. 400 on an oil cooler. So I'm not sure what you're talking about. The Z runs fine on tracks, on roads, @ 150mph. Instead of going for the gusto on intake and FI exhausts like most pre-fabricated fanboi's why not spend a couple of grand on vital mods. Your mentality is simple and underwhelming. All cars need some modification. Even the other competition.

lol. Seriously though, the V8 vantage is closer to the Z's performance numbers than, say, a 458 Italia, so the comparison on performance metrics is not inappropriate. But the biggest difference between the other exotics you mention and the Aston is that their cars are GTs and as such are not really competing with your Lambos and 458s -- though the 911 is too close to call as to whether it is more GT than sports car.

You knowu can lease trade???? If your dealership has other brands you can bargain with them and get out of the Z so you can go fanboi another site n STFU over here. What did you do trade in your sentra for a Z and now you can't get any loan outside of a Nmac loan or lease? Lol. You act so stuck when ur not unless ur credit is shyt. |

I like the Z a lot. A few things about do piss me the fvkk off though. Not enough to hate the car cuz all cars will have a flaw. But I would call the Z a dream car. Not first on my list. Maybe second to last. But I love the Z. In affordable rides that can be attained for under 60k is The corvette GS The BOSS 302 ONLY not GT BMW 1M 370z Mitsubishi evo/ Subie sti. I have no order in this list. But I can tell yo the Z does a little bit of all. I prefer turbo'd cars way more than NA... yet I'm in a Z. My favorite exotic, the italia, and aventador. Fave median exotics cars are the cayman 911 R8 and GTR. I would love to own every car mentioned. But in the meantime. The Z can hold more than its own as a complete driving experience. |
