Really, what are they, mid 13 cars out of the box?
Speaking of 03 cobras and up why would you buy a Z over a Cobra? You can pick up a cobra for what you can a z. And dont say handling because they are close.
Heh funny, well, I don't know if you are familiar with SCC, but they took a 350Z, left the stock suspension on it, but swapped the front and rear swaybars, added bigger rims and tires, (street tires) and the car pulled 1G on the skidpad. They have never been able to do that on a car with that few of mods. I know, for a fact a swap like that on a 03 Cobra can't match it. I know that the stock track Z outslaloms, outbrakes, and simply outhandles a stock Cobra, I know that for a fact. Shoot, go to an SCCA event an compare an 03 Cobra to a Z, well, not really all that close.
Again, they are different cars, no bones about it. I just don't car for American ergonomics, or rather lack thereof.
and you know what I am talking about when I speak of the shifter placement on a 'Stang.

But I digress, its an exercise in futility to continue, 'cause we all know of something faster than what we have now.
Well closer in handling then the 350z stands a chance in a straight away against a cobra :lol:
Refer to my previous statement.
