When we last left the 2009 Nissan 370Z, it had just laid a drubbing on BMW's little 135i. We then proclaimed, "The 2009 Nissan 370Z raises the standard for the sport coupe segment to a new level of affordable excellence." Time to get more serious. It's V8 time. Who's in? Let's see, no Camaro, and
a Challenger is not available (don't ask), so that leaves the freshly updated 2010 Ford Mustang GT, a car whose very existence is predicated upon wallet-friendly performance. Perhaps a reinvigorated veteran can take down the newly crowned king. The particulars might differ — four seats versus tw
o, V8 versus V6 — but the mission is the same. And the 2009 Nissan 370Z and 2010 Ford Mustang GT are priced closer than you might think.

Everyone can debate ... ( 3 days ago by MrZoomzoombaby)

Everyone can debate which car is better, but it's just all preference really. American cars like the stang are all about power which is great. But lets be real, they're not meant for handling like the 370z which is also quite fast for a 3.5L V6. It's not as fast as the stang which produces 400HP. From a dig, the stang will take the 370, but on curves, the 370 wins. At the end it all depends on which car suits your needs.

dang mustang ... ( 3 days ago by magzcampos)

dang mustang drivers tryin to pull a fast one.. the guy reviewing it said they are almost IDENTICAL, they are both good sports cars, Id take preference on the z on looks, everything else is just bull 400hp? heck id go with 200, thats plenty for a sports car.. horsepower isnt everything stop yapping and drive both heck you might change your mind

@GBallaJ im fucking retarded? let me flat out tell you shut the fuck up you piece of shit ricers are worthless! no one wants them no one needs them there slow as fuck and anyone that thinks there fast is a fucking idiot.

i don't get why ... ( 1 day ago by CodyMiles3029)

i don't get why everyone fights, we all have our personal opinion.. i would much rather take a japanese car over american.. better mpg, better styling, better handling, and same performance.. they are much more reliable, and easily tuned and upgraded.. no offense to domestic fans, but us americans don't really care about quality, just about making bank.. the japanese just want to release quality, to keep their customers..

@CodyMiles3029 ... ( 23 hours ago by scorpionboy380)

@CodyMiles3029 forget the old 2010 mustang. the 2011 GT has more power and same mpg as the 370Z. also, you speak of opinions, but you say the Z has better styling? yeah that's totally your opinion. and mustang can be tuned easily as well. it's one of the most popular tuning cars.

@urmom4877 I'm not ... ( 17 hours ago by GBallaJ)

@urmom4877 I'm not taking sides I'm just showing how much of a retard you look like after posting such a stupid comment.You seem to be on some sort of tuner witchhunt but I guess you haven't seen the Pulsar that shits on the Viper or the people who swap Ls1's in Nissan 240's.If nobody needs them why are there so many on the road...yeah you're pretty much dumb.

@scorpionboy380 Yes ... ( 17 hours ago by CodyMiles3029)

@scorpionboy380 Yes that is my opinion in no way am I bashing on the Mustang.. it is a beautiful car I'm not gonna lie.. All cars in my eyes are beautiful machinery.. I do agree with you on the fact that Mustangs can be easily tuned and upgraded.. I don't know the market for domestic cars at all, I guess I just look at the import market.. But in my opinion I am a huge import fan, and will always choose it over domestic..

@MrZoomzoombaby ok, ... ( 16 hours ago by RythmnMaster1)

@MrZoomzoombaby ok, the 370 has a 3.7 L engine not a 3.5 like the 350, and it is quite a bit faster than the mustang, the one tested here is not a 400 hp one, which it would probly be right along with the Z if it was one in power. you got ur shit all wrong and U have a highest rated comment ??? jesus

Stop fighting, ... ( 15 hours ago by 11tonius)

Stop fighting, folks. You're both too old to behave like little kids.

@RythmnMaster1 I ... ( 15 hours ago by MrZoomzoombaby)

@RythmnMaster1 I based it on the '11 Mustang GT 5.0 which has 400HP. The GT would still have trouble keeping up with the 370z on curves.

@GBallaJ lol your a ... ( 8 hours ago by urmom4877)

@GBallaJ lol your a dumb ass if you think there alot of these on the roads. i can shit on these in my truck. and no shit they put an ls1 in a 240shit they want some actual power. and the viper is slow anyways. but if you want to talk about modded out pulsars look up the hennssy viper yea we can modify our cars to and they will beat the shit outa anything you could ever think of.

@CodyMiles3029 go ... ( 8 hours ago by urmom4877)

@CodyMiles3029 go drive a domestic car then. see that domestic beats import.

@urmom4877 im not ... ( 5 hours ago by CodyMiles3029)

@urmom4877 im not bashing that imports will beat a domestic, they both stand a fair fight.. as long as you line up the same motor, same weight.. i just personally like imports, ive driven domestic and imports, and prefer imports.

@MrZoomzoombaby ... ( 5 hours ago by subeyguy66)

@MrZoomzoombaby motortrend tested the 2011 5.0 mustang gt vs the bmw m3, and it was goddamn close on a ROAD course. so, fucking blow me. America, fuck yeah.

@urmom4877 agreed.. ... ( 16 minutes ago by CodyMiles3029)

@urmom4877 agreed.. that is why I go for used imports.. they already made their money off the sale so they aren't getting my money.. and i pay the taxes so it goes to my state.. =)
