i like the 350z, looks wise. But it is sorta disappointment. I mean 10 years ago the 300zx TT was runnin the same times as the new 350 is. I owuld think i n10 years they could make a little improvement in the performance. I think the same thing about the rx-8 only the rx-8 is even worse. The TT rx-7s were mid 13's stock which is preety damn fast fora stock car and they also responded well to mods( they just werent reliable, to much boost didnt go well with the rotary). And also 10 years later they come out with the rx-8, not only is it not as fast but it is more than a second slower. highs 14's is a dsgrace for performance orriented name as the RX.

well lets not overlook the fact that those older cars you just mentioned are turbo charged. the new Z is NA, so is the RX8.
these manufacturers are trying their hand at making a fast NA engine. the new 3.5 motor as jkan im sure can tell you, is a real monster.
ive driven both the rx8 and new Z and am not impressed with the rx8 at all, except for the redline.
however the Z just goes, there is almost no hesitation
great car
