Default I love my Z but----
I have an 05 Z with 11kmiles on it--never driven in bad weather--just a toy. I just bought a new Accord cp --6 speed V6. I hate to admit it, but the Honda will outrun my Z. It's seriously fast!

6-speed auto or manual tranny?

It's still Front Wheel Drive... right?

Lol...

Sell your 05 and get a 07-08 HR if you want to compare stock horsepower numbers but a FWD will never handle better than a RWD car... plain and simple.

sell both the 05z and accord and get an HR Z. Its pointless to compare such an old car to newer gen cars...the z is still fast for being so old especially the hr

Lol you're comparing a 2013 vs a 2005... aren't they about the same either way? Get the 2013 370z and then compare.

Not gonna lie, those V6 Accords are quite fast. They do have normal FWD car problems but they are fun to drive. I'd take an altima coupe with the V6 and 6mt over the honda though.

I'm pretty sure late-model Altimas aren't available with a manual transmission.

You say your Accord is faster than your Z. Just a quick question, Is the smile on your face wider after you've driven the Accord or the Z?

Correct and the newest ones aren't available with a VQ. Either way their production run came to an end back in June.
