the 350z must have been a shitty driver because those things are fast as shit and most likely would have raped a TL

They're fast, but not THAT fast.
Definitely would've beaten the Audi and TL though, by a decent margin.

im sorry, raped is too strong of a word

but nonetheless, the 350z most likely will beat both cars because it is light and a very nice engine :-) Vroom Vroom

do you have an 05 6speed TL if so some are putting down close to 250whp stock and I could see a good driver beating a 350z in manual TL. Damn I wish my car was a stick! still nice kill and good driving makes a world of difference. I beat an 04 Maxima AT from a stop up to 70mph by a good 1/2-1 car length and no one believed me.

light??? the 350 is NOT light.. that thing is so heavy. good thing the hp and torque make up for it.

even the automatic luxury family sedan, TL, weighs only 200 pounds more than the LIGHTEST 350Z. thats not so great for a sports compact coupe.

ok

the result is

1st: 350z

2nd: TL

3rd: A4

well, 350zhas better torque and I almost got to beat him but he suddenly hit break......wow

that went to 10 mins of argue after that race.

I think I would have won...hehe

350z was FAST...theres nothing i can do but I SOMKED A4.

Yeah you won't be beating a 350Z. VQ torque will mean you're every time, unless the driver sucks or there is a problem with the car.

But no surprise on the A4!

I think you need to check your sources again.

The 350Z is no lightweight at 3200 lbs., but the TL auto is closer to 3600 lbs.
That's a 400 lb. difference, and the Z has more hp and a lot more torque.
After all, the TL does give up .3L in displacement.
