Default Car and Driver Tests

Not the numbers I expected. I hate magazine racing but I figured it would trap alot higher than that at the 1/4.

THIS IS OLD NEWS. IT IS THE 06, not the 07 they tested. Get over it.

The 2007 Z is significantly faster than the 05 and 06, even though its heavier. Last i saw a dynojet dyno of one stock, it his 290whp. Thats more than revups with boltons. Im sure this car will respond very well to boltons.

We are not alone is singing the praises of the VQ35DE all-aluminum V-6 engine

four-piston calipers on the Brembo brakes and forged wheels included on the Track model are admittedly tasty pieces.

EPA city/highway driving: 19/25 mpg

Power (SAE net): 306 bhp @ 6800 rpm (if im remember correct, the HR makes peak HP near the 7500 redline)

2006 model. C&D are lazy ****s. They said back in their 2007 new car reports that the 2007 350Z has no changes.


DAMN NICE AVITAR! Who is that?

IMO the only good drivers are the ones on Top Gear and Best Motoring, no one else really pushes it to the limits...

I've seen this before but I didn't realize it was the same article. Just saw the 306hp and assumed it was the new car.

I have not seen a roadtest yet.
