So when you "floor it"

Guys, sorry to piss on everybody's parade but there is a lot of nonsense going on in here. If you're beating 350z's they're in desperate need of some driver mods, especially if they're modded- are we talking 2003-2006 automatics? Off the bat, the V6 Camaro may do okay against the early model auto Z's, but even here the Z should be faster in all situations- but seeing that Z's are harder to launch than an auto camaro I could possibly see an auto, early model Z with a bad driver losing to the V6 camaro- but certainly not against a Z with a decent driver and not a chance against the newer HR models (07-08), it would not even be a contest, the HR Z's are mid to low 13 seconds cars trapping 108-109 mph stock. Don't believe me? Here, here, and here

Love the guys that can't stand anything bad being said about their car and feel like they just have to go to the forum and defend themselves.
You know, like some of the Mustang boys here.

Just seems fishy to me..

Go to my350z's top dragtimes, the HR Z has hit 13.1's a number of times with several different drivers.

And I don't believe you're correct that most are nowhere near that, most of the early model are nowhere near that, but there are many HR's are in the mid to low 13's so it's not as uncommon as you think.

no, but some times the childish fantasies do get a little out of control and need to be checked by a little logic and a few facts, didn't mean to offend you with the truth. BTW, I was on this forum before I even bought my Z and apparently before you, so don't know what point you're trying to make but you're not doing a very good job, if you have something substantive to post up by all means...

But yeah... 350z's keep their own against SS... no idea how they lose to v6 lol..

They run mid to high 13s stock... 13.7 being the middle ground... So I have no idea how they're going to be losing to the v6s out there lol... Must be a guy in a manual with only one arm and one leg or something.

I do, lol- seriously. But in all honesty, I've never seen so much misinformation out there as I do with the 350z and I also drive one which makes it I guess a little more personal. The Camaro SS was the car I really wanted but ended up having to get rid of my last car and make a decision much faster than I would have liked, and had to settle for the Z (not that I'm complaining at all). I really like the V6 Camaro and I know it's no slouch, but it should really not be compared with the 350z, (although it can be I guess with the older auto's and roadsters). I think a good comparo would be between the Acura TL and a V6 Camaro

hm, why dont we all listen to the 350Z guy. LOL rightt

Sterling · 12-29-2009, 11:24 PM

I know the V6 can beat the V8 Camaro if it's running 87 octane...
