NissanZ vs. Saleen Mustang

[Kurtdg19]

Simply because a car is faster than another doesn't mean its going to be a better car. A Saleen will probably win almost everytime in a straightline shot. The 350Z has inspiring abilities on a track. Which would I prefer, probably the Z. A Saleen will be faster, but that is not influencing my decision. I would prefer the Z cause it is more well rounded and refined overall vs. a Saleen.

If Saleen uses the same Salleen tire package I bought for my Cobra with those sorry Zero perelli's I know from experiance that the saleen is only good in a straight line and the traction in a straight line wouldn't be to hot the perellis tires are really bad no traction I don't have 20 miles on mine and they are coming off.

The cars are different enough that it depends on exactly what you are doing with it. For the street, I would choose the 350Z track package because of the better brakes, for SCCA racing, I would choose the 350Z because it's calssed in T2 and the Saleen is not classed, for an open track type event where the car is on track for less than 1 hr at a pop, I would take the Saleen because it has enough more power that it should be faster, drag racing, the Saleen as well, for auto-x, the 350Z is probably better because of the better handling. For the snow, I'd gladly take a mid-80's Audi Quattro over either of them.
