Default Kinda Stuck

I'm looking to trade in my Durango in the next week or so, But for some reason I'm stuck between a 370z and a 5.0
In my opinion a 370z just seems overpriced for a V6 when the 5.0 is in the same price range... Opinions and lulz are welcome
Not sure if i'm in the right section either haha...

370Z will be a sharper-handling car and more of a "purpose-built" sports car. The Mustang will be a car that is good at everything. FAST, handles well, rides well, comfortable seats for around town or a long road trip, plenty of luggage space, a decent back seat for bringing even a couple full-grown adults on short trips. I guess I would say that a Z would be a really fun second car while the Stang can be a great all-around car... Oh yeah, and that V8 burble!!

has there been a road test of a 370z and a 5.0? bc if a 5.0 can hang with an m3 i believe it will smoke a z. also in a straight line i know the 5.0 will walk all over the 370. i say go with the 5.0 you get way more for your money

Test drive them both and see what suits you best! I'm sure most here will say go with the 5.0, since your in the Mustang Forum. ;-)
I have a sixxer, but I can't wait to upgrade to a GT, so I can hear the V8 rumble!!!!

Test drive! Also, those two cars seem to appeal to different crowds... And those don't mix... Z is more refined while 5.0 is a brute... 5.0 is more for open highways and Z is for driving a girl to a restaurant in NYC...

Test drive a Coyote, and you will not want to waste a dime on a Z!
