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

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.

Good job. regarding Mr. BuddyZ's posts, please consider the source and try to not react. Anyone who lists "socal" as their location truly needs a wide berth, if you catch my drift. You may be trying to explain the color red to a blind man.

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

I'm just saying brits just hate cuz they don't hav e a top car in the sports world. But id take ANY EXOTIC.

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.

Yeah but Frerrai makes a GT as well called the california... not as hyped as the overresonated italia. Don't get it twisted. The italia is my dream car. But Ferrari models get no love due to the italia.
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.
