yea, the car looks to have some serious potential.

idk though, the car is prob gonna come in at 3000-3200 lbs so it will have an upside, but in the end the Camaro will be the better car.

My girlfriend has an 07' 350, and man is that car fun to drive.

its weird to describe, but it really doesnt drive like a rice burner, it feels like it has a good deal of torque..

great road feel too, just a little heavy for its size.

Gotta say while it's not horrible it's not impressive, same for the exterior styling as well.

Modified no they are not, stock i was not impressed but maybe its just because im used to American power, not jap rice. I was more impressed by the Cobalt SS, even a Tacoma X-Runner was way more exciting and its a truck. Also i think the 370 looks like crap, the only Z worth anything is a Z28. Just my opinion, and maybe some of you misunderstood me, i know it's not "slow", the RX-8 was slow, i just expect a little more from something that gets as much praise as the 350Z
