2011 Camaro SS or V6 vs. 370z?

[plg3rd]

i owned a 350Z with DE engine(2005). i test drove the 370z waaaaay before i even thought of buying a SS Camaro. the 370z is definitely faster but didnt feel like much of a difference. the camaro is a hell of a lot faster. 0-60 the camaro wont kill it but on the highway it wont even be close

Is this kinda like how the GT500 has more faster lap times in comparo's than the ZL1 but the ZL1, in that situation is the better handler?

LOL people....which way is it?

A couple people said the Nismo is faster? A guy I work with has a Nismo, thought it only had appearance and suspension mods? No power adders

It has some i/e work... 17 hp over stock(350 vs 333). The increase in hp is offset by it's aero drag at higher speeds(look at the wing) and the added weight of the Nismo components/
