0-60, 5.5 seconds
it did 14.2 @ 99.5 mph.

mustang
0-60, 5 seconds flat
13.5 @ 104.0 mph

370z
0-60, 4.7 seconds
13.3 @ 107.1 mph

damn, the rx8 is outdated.

So they should. I hate that site and have no idea why anyone ever uses it. They just embed youtube videos surrounded by shitty advertisements. Post the youtube video or not watching.

kersh4w 05-04-2009 12:27 PM

The Z is turning to be a little beast! 4.7 ticks 0-60 is amazing!
A kersh4w , that Genesis got more than walked,it got ran away from with no possibility of ever catching up!LOL!

BlueEyes 05-04-2009 12:54 PM

Damn, Z is quick. The Genesis seems slow for some reason. I guess it's heavier than I thought.

Atilla 05-04-2009 12:56 PM

wow...didn't think the Z would edge out the mustang....

*Offers sacrifice to rotary gods for new rx7*

That guy's voice puts me to sleep.

I read this article in MT. Even though the Stang and 370z are faster, I am planning to get this as my Wife's next car probably this summer. We went and looked at them at the dealer and I was impressed with the fit and finish and the MANY choices of trim levels...

Atilla 05-04-2009 01:05 PM

that's a huge sig line...:icon_no2:

If you think about it , it really didn't do to bad...
It pulled what a 350Z would pull 5.5 ticks 14.2 in the 1/4 mile, thats what a 07 Z does with its 307HP rev up motor.

And its only .4 ticks faster than a RX-8 and .3 faster in the 1/4 mile with a optimal driver behind the wheel.

The Genesis is 2 years too late, maybe next time around Hyundai!:yesnod:

dynamho 05-04-2009 02:51 PM

Kinda bummed that the Mustang didn't win even w/a V8.

9krpmrx8 05-04-2009 03:05 PM

I saw a Genesis the other day with a wing and I thought it was G37 at first glance. It was a baby blue color and looked really nice I must admit. Although, this Z is just Sick.

kersh4w 05-04-2009 08:53 PM

that 370z above looks mazdaspeed front end inspired.

krijpipudht 05-04-2009 10:25 PM

Stock 370Z is ugly.
and I'm disappoint with Nismo and Mine's 370Z too.

But
Zele is hot.
