This may have done something 16 years ago. I'm sorry.
Show me something recent out of Japan with 300HP, and a sports car. The big points of the Vette VS the 300ZX wasnt pure performance. The Vette beat the Z in most of the performance tests. But the Z did it confortably, quitly, and beautifully.
My Z is 16 years old! Still turns heads! Runs a mid 12 with intake/exhaust/pulley! And still looks like a modern sportscar.
I'm glad I could make this entire post without having to say: "Its a Z32 thing, you wouldnt understand."
