Well.. i just got my mustang back recently and I was cruising around when I see this brand new 2007 350z nismo edition pulling out of a turkey hill coming on to the same street as me in the same direction.... i was just like :-O and ironically as soon as he did the light right in front of us turned yellow and we both lined up. It was like something ud see on a movie... but anywayyss... I was kinda scared because I know they are pretty fast but surprisingly I took him pretty good by about half a car length up to about 70 mph then we let off.. I couldnt believe it. So then I see him flying up again and AGAIN we get stopped at another light so im like.. ok this times bawls to the wall... because I knew if he didnt try last time he was def trying this time. So I quickly turned off my traction control and got ready to go lol. This time I took him by a full car length to a car length and a half by 4th gear... i couldnt believe it. Lol again we get stopped at another light but this time i just rolled my window down to talk to him. I asked em if he was really trying and he was laughing embarassed looking and was like yeahhh. Turns out he worked at a nissan dealer and was just test driving the car.. as it still had the price, tags, etc on it. I was in shock. But yeah so that was the highlight of my day =).

 

Mod list?

And what are the Nismo editions?

 

Nice kill and ummm, is the pic in your sig big enough, LOL.

 

You must have some nice mods to outrun a car that weighs about the same as you and has 305 crank hp. Read an article that dynoed them and they made 250 to the wheels.

 

Maybe torque and driver mod?

 

Maybe?A 2000Mustang has a 30 pound torque advantage over the 350z. Depending on the trim level (Amount of nizmo upgrades)of the350Z it could have between 305 and 350 hp. It would probably take more than a little torque and a good driver to overcome that much horsepower.

 

I wont pull out the bs flag since the guy in the Nissan could just be a horrible driver and ****ed up gears and such.

 

Since it had dealer tags it could've been a bad driver mod. Perhaps it was an automatic? Those new 350Zs aren't too much faster than these cars to were a good vs bad driver can't win.

 

I've never found a 350Z that EITHER:
a) Ran well, or
b) Performed like it had anywhere near 300hp.

This run seems quite realistic to me.

 

+1, I ripped my friend's mom's 2006 350z a new *** hole when he thought it was faster than my car stock... Shut him the **** up [8D]
