Like I said in another thread, about the only thing you can compare between the zed and the LT is the number of cylinders. They're not even remotely in the same class.

In my introduction thread to this forum, I mentioned driving the 2.0T Genesis, its V6 brother, and the 370Z. I loved the power of the 370Z, even that rev-matching trick was cool. Still, sitting in it reminded me too much of my former office space and that wasn't what I was looking for...again - Turbo MR cars running full Ohlins race suspension are NOT fun after awhile... (Talk about exclusive, when I had my MR-S and Supra I was pretty much a leper around town)

The Z is a race car. It's bred for it. It drives like one. It does nothing better. That makes it badass, but not for everyone. The Camaro carries a stigma that is easily relatable to all potential buyers. That's what makes it successful in GM's eyes, but a failure in yours. I could care less the more Camaro's I see. I know exactly why I bought mine. I know exactly where it belongs on the automotive ladder, and most importantly, I know exactly what it isn't.
very good. you must understand where i am coming from. i bought this car back when it first came out. everyone looked and asked me questions that summer i guess i just really miss that. and i feel the 370z being as rare as it is i would get more looks and more people asking about it. and also i feel the reason why its rarer is because its more of a enthusiast`s car. i like the idea of driving a car that has more enthusiasts driving it.

i know what you are going to ask why not sell my car and get one. well i also love my camaro and put a lot of money into it. i am happy with it. i am also planning of getting the my dream car in about 3-4 years which is a m3. so getting a 370z is not really in the question
