Default 370z Competition

What will be the 370z's main competition?


Also, with 332 hp will it be able to keep up with modern muscle cars(challenger, camaro, mustang )?

There's no way that'll happen. I thought I'd let you know

Enzo, McLaren, Carrera GT....jk!
I'd say- 335i, Evo X (even though it's a rally car), modded 350s

Many reviewers liked the G37 over the 335i, so a faster, lighter 370z should be superior to a stock 335i

Superior in performance? Yes.

Everything else? Probably not, though subjective. They are two completely different vehicles. They just aren't good competitors to each other.

It's a luxury sports car after all. And not to mention, the 335i's should be significantly more expensive.
