Default New Z owner from Rhode Island!

Just picked up an 08 350Z,base.

Car is sweet and love the response it gives. Past cars were....
01 mazda miata
04 mazda rx-8 great car but no *****
07 mustang gt fast car but made cheap,very badly made.
now an 08 Z. I thought it wouldnt handle like the rx8 but it sure does. And the power is there too. Cockpit is alittle cramped but I will make do. Great car. Look forward to seeing diff ways of modding it on here.

The response is much faster. The mustang is sluggish at first for like a .5 sec then its a rocket. That was with a custom tune and some aftermarket parts, ie exhaust,intake,intake spacer,and the tune.

However like I said the GT is cheaply made. And there is no comparison between RX8 and 350Z. 350Z blows it away in power the same when it comes to handling.
