^^ hah well... that didn't really come to me as that big of a surprise. Considering your name and all! I always loved my 2000 GT, but i just know if i throw down on a 5.0, a 400Z TT will be released with 500hp

NISSAN doesn't even support us in the aftermarket. I think we might get a 371 Z with 333 HP.

If they gave us a 560Z with the 5.6L I probably wouldn't be leaving for a Mustang.

FWIW, I'm named after a WWII aircraft.

I wish I could get my wife to come around to liking Mustangs, but she is dead set against them. I'd trade the G37 in tomorrow if she would approve.

If you can afford a GTR, just buy the M3 and be done with it!

Has she driven one? Make her test a 5.0 and she'll probably change her mind!!!

It's actually really nice. In terms of quality I would say it's on par with the Z Touring package. The leather is fantastic and the fit and finish is very good. It's not like the old Mustangs at all.

I don't agree with everything in the interior, but I'd definitely say the premium package GTs feel like your average luxury car. They are very nicely built.
