Never mind... Found it. I don't ever believe we will see a production model.

Thanks for posting.

What track was it, and what does the asterisk* mean?

No, they tested a New HR powered Z. Its not listed because it was tested in the Current issue. The Z they have listed Has an asterisk next to its lap times because it was tested on a wet track, and its Name is in bold to symbolize that it has the best time in its class.

I was looking at the wrong 350Z.

The one you are referencing ran a slower time than the M3. The M3 got the 1.29, whereas the Z got the 132. Is there a link showing the new time for the HR?

So then why post an article which shows nothing of what you are claiming. Get back to me when you have some hard info.

Not disputing what you claim, however, nothing you posted substantiates your post.

Because the Current issue of CAR doesn't have it listed. You can wait till next month, and pick up an issue of your own, just to see the Z added in bold letters. But I'm sure the majority of people will not have the same problem you are having.

I fail to see how I could be incorrect for reposting recorded objective data. Would you like to elaborate for me, and everyone else. You can again prove how much of a dumb *** you are.

Car doesn't list the Times in thier current issue, but you are welcome to head to your nearest Books-A-Million and Pick up a copy, and find the lap time for yourself.

Don't be upset with me because you failed to read what I posted. Your reading comprehension is your problem, not mine.

Ask CAR. For the 4th time, the Newest 350Z tested obtained a Lap time about equal to the M3 CS, but because it was tested in this current issue, the lap times were not posted in that section.
