Why does everyone talk **** bout the 350Z?

And if the 350Z isn't a sportscar . . . then what does that make the RSX? A 5-seat sportscar wannabe with an identity crises?

explain to me how they think the rsx is better than a z based on these little numbers:
rsx type s:
Horsepower : 200 hp @ 7400 rpm('02-'04), 210 hp @ 7800 rpm('05+)
Torque : 142 lb-ft @ 6000 rpm('02-'04), 143 lb-ft @ 7000 rpm('05+)
Redline : 7900-8100 rpm
Top speed : 145 mph
0-60 mph : 6.7 sec.('02-'04), 6.5 sec.('05)
0-¼ mile : 15.2 sec @ 92.7 mph('02-'04)
60-0 braking distance : 135 ft
200 ft skidpad : 0.86 g
350z:
Horsepower : 287 hp @ 6200 rpm(auto/'03-'05 manual),
300 hp @ 6200 rpm('05-'06 manual)
Torque : 274 lb-ft @ 4800 rpm
Redline : 7000 rpm('05-'06 manual), 6550 rpm(auto/'03-'05 manual)
Top speed : 155 mph(electronically limited)
0-60 mph : 5.4 sec.('03 manual)
0-¼ mile : 14.1 sec @ 101.0 mph('03 manual)
60-0 braking distance : 119 ft
200 ft skidpad : 0.89 g
do you see a single area that would suggest the rsx is better? and also even relating to the brand, nissan has several nasty cars (z, skyline, ect). what does honda/acura have? nsx? that car was nice but rediculously expensive for what you were getting. the s2000? beaten by a z and not even close to a skyline. an rsx or a civic? rsx's arent fast and a civic is basically the first car that comes to mind when you think of stupid ricers
the rsx has what going for it? striaght line?no. corners? pretty good, but not better than the z, or an sti, or an evo. power?hell no. torque? not even gonna answer that one
sorry for the rant, but i really cant stand ricer retard pieces of ****
