Donny, nice math, looks like the SCC article was fairly accurate.

Don't forget, the NSX has WAY less drivetrain loss. That's kind of the nice thing of having the engine on the same side of the car as the driving wheels.

The NSX also has a lower center of gravity.

That said, I got a ride in a 350 today. I'm certain the 350Z has more low end punch. The two cars are really a totally different feel.
