I know, but modded vs. stock arguments are always silly. You could take a Civic and put 20k into it and it'd decimate all.

Comparing two car that are $20k apart at MSRP is just as silly.

oh ive seen them. You know the 370 is getting the exact if not a .5mpg better than my old 350z but i find myself freaking out about gas.

I think its that dang light up gas tank bar thing. Its like everytime i give it the beans a light goes out and its like a star goes out in the sky and im depressed....
My only real complaint. that and i cannot find which screen i want to keep on that little screen in the middle.

Instant MPG--pretty useless
Ave MPH--ok but when it goes down i dont like it
Time over Distance--pretty useless unless i am on a long trip
outside temp--dont really care i have windows
miles in tank--this think is all over the place, i dont know what to think
the menu screen--who wants to look at this all the time

what was wrong with a digital speedo too
only real complaint about the 370 interior

In an apples to apples comparison, the Z isn't as fast or prestigious as the Porsche, but for the money, I think the Z probably wins the "more fun for the buck" argument.

this argument works for the corvette for about the last 10 or so years and they have one of the worst interiors ever
