![]() I love the bore on the Infiniti G35 exhausts, they have a great sound..but they're not designed for the same purpose as the Mustang..they're more geared towards the sport/luxury of new car owners and don't provide the same kind of fun that the Mustang does. And remember the 350z has a V6 engine. I've noticed that people who own both V8 muscle cars and V6 luxury sport cars with manual trannys' try to drive them the same way, reminds me of when I test drove a 2002 V6 Mustang with a short-shifter..I smelled clutch pretty quick. Why not combine bank rolls for a new Corvette with a 6-speed automatic..now THAT'll suit both your needs and more...

![]() I couldn't agree with you more on that last note...
Even all the new "sport luxury" cars have oodles of horsepower, the gearing on them kills em quick. I can't count how many times I have eaten up Luxury sport cars with 300+ HP with my minimally modified 04 GT. Still for the price of an 06 G35 - you can find a nice 03-05 Z06. Much more bang for your buck. I will say this, the 350z feels like a sports car despite the bit of slugishness due to the weight. (Like I mentioned before, it feels heavy). The interior of the car screams performance oriented and the seats really do keep you planted firm, which our ponies are seriously lacking in. Throw in a 3K turbo kit to an 18K 350z and and the extra 80-120HP you add will put a smile on your face really really quickly. I am sure with some more minor mods you can catch that Z06 at the strip and maybe even on the track. (Not the 2006 Z06 mind you - that thing is unreal). -just my .02 - hope you guys don't take citing other cars as blasphemy. LOL -Narsh |
