It varies with the 350Z. I think they first rolled out in 2003 with about 270ish crank horsepower, then it was bumped to 290-300ish in 2006 (that may only be for one specific model however). I think the new ones will have about 330 or so.

The newer ones are quick, about on par with an S197. If he had a plate like that I would hope he wasn't stock... but jeez, V8KLLR is pretty broad too. Imagine if a C6Z pulled up, he'd really look like an idiot

It 'd be funny for sure cuz you are not permitted to use that many characters in a plate lol, but seriously i would probably laugh if i spank his *** though

there is a 350Z around here running 400+rwhp from a twin turbo kit, he ran into me on the street right after he had the kit installed and tuned, and was a little dissapointed, but it was still a fast car.

EDIT: but the one around here has a really cool guy as an owner and no obnoxious license plate or anything.

I've seen that exact same plate on a civic at the track, however, that civic was pretty fast. But on that note, any time some one talks trash about any 8 cyc, I just point over to this older guy who comes in w/ some kind of old school muscle car w/ wheelie bars, a parachute, full exhuast w/ mufflers, & a licence plate. He pulls in, swaps out his street tires for slicks, runs 8's, puts back on his street tires, and drives it back home...

Found out the car was a 06 350Z with just exhuast. I feel really good now. I heard that the older ones were a little slow. Can't wait to install the 4.10's and get the dyno tune.
