Nissan 370Z Forum  

I finally had enough

You traded a Nissan for a Ford? Really? Well, when that piece of crap falls apart and leaves you stranded on the highway don't say we didn't tell you to

It's about to get real ugly once the Mustang boys read this.

Ugly? No, we're used to the 370z fanboys. In fact, many of us stick around and provide more support to this community than many current Z owners could ever dream of doing themselves!

The stand is about the same as my touring sport with nav ...bout 45k. The stand is the same in the turns and a little faster 0 to 60. I amp still adjusting to owning a Ford (shudder). As soon as I get my stripe I will post a pic. FYI, it wasn't the ride and noise as much as increasing trouble getting in and out. I hate getting old. Next summer I will track the stanf and see how it compares at speed.

I'm surprised you find the CS/base suspension and tire package to feel close to the Z in handling. The Brembo/Track pack cars have a far superior suspension and tire package compared to the CS and base GTs.

I am still here. Just got busy at work. Thanks for all the good thoughts. I will always love my Z. I had both the 240 and 40 years later the 370. I'm grateful I had the chance.

No one here has Ben mean. Z owners are rightfully passionate. Admittedly I have only had the Mustang a day, but iammore sad than happy. I did take I90 to dinner and it does go like a bat out of hell like my Z. I have to admit Sync and the nav are way better.

You guys have been great. I look forward to finding a mustang forum.

Let's see some pics of the new pony!

Probably not the most financially responsible decision but no use questioning that now..
