Default Which one should I buy????

I'm am stuck between getting an 05-06 Mustang GT or buying an 04-06 Nissan 350Z. I have always been a mustang guy, but I really love the 350Z.I am looking for performance and comfort,as a daily driver andafew visits to the track every now and then,and they both seem to offer it. I would appreciate any opinions about which one you guys think I should go with. Thanks for the help

My dad was in the same situation and ended up with an 06 vert.

Well this is a mustang forum so you probably know what everyone is going to say. Get a fudging mustang!!!!!



On a serious note, I think you should get whatever you want. IMO i think the mustang is more bang for your buck.(looks better, more power,interior better. Also the same year of both cars: the GT is cheaper.) If you still can't decide go for the Infiniti G35 aka Skyline

It really depends on what you want. Would you rather have better cornering or be faster in a straight line? I own an 06 mustang gt and my father has an 03 350z and they are very different from each other. -Andrew

i looked at 350s before i got the stang and 2 wouldn't crank and 1 grinded very very hard into 3rd. not to mention my g/f has had all kinds of problems with her 05 sentra... no spanks to Nissan.

It really all depends on your preference. IMO the Mustang will be more comfortable on long trips... if you're a bigger guy the mustang is definitely better for you. It's a great drag car, but if you're looking for something that will handle like a sports car... well go for the more sporty of the two, the Z. I personally think the Mustang has better looks.

Mod for Mod, you'll get better gains from the V8, and for cheaper.

If you need back seats, then obviously the Mustang is better for you.

It's not hard to make the new mustangs handle well, but It'll still only be as good as a stock Z in handling...

I wish you good luck in your deciding, I know it's not easy.

i looked at both a Z and a Stang. the Stang is cheaper, looks a bit better, has more interior room, and is faster in a straight line. the Z has better handling and 1 more gear (thus better mileage). also, the stang is easier to mod. good luck in your decision. the breaker for me was when i realized i couldn't fit my guitar case in the back of the Z.
