Well it depends on the weight of the 350Z.. the car will be n/a and will ride on optional 18" tires.. I think even if it has 300hp.. 0-60mph times should not be lower than 5.5 secs.

The Supra will eat that nissan alive. The majority of supras are not stock.

It will outhandle, outaccelerate, and out-everything that new Z.

Although I haven't heard any word on what types of mods will be available for the new Z...

You guys heard anything?

ME TOO!! Hopefully they rerelease it in the US around the same time as the 2003 RX8 and 350Z come out. And yeah, the Supra TT will out do the 350Z all around stock for stock IMO. They need to have a turbo version 350Z, but the aftermarket will probably take care of that.

The Supra is a turd. All it does well is go fast in a straight line. The car is big, heavy, and powerful, and that's about it. Oh, and it has a big wing on the back.

Shit, I guess it is better

no flames intended, but isn't that kind of like the cl type s? the way you described the supra sounds like a description of the cl type s.

Yeah, but I didn't say that the CL-S would beat the hell out of a 350Z

I don't recall it doing that well. I stand corrected. It's a turd that goes fast and handles well.

I'd rather have a Z06 though.

Supra is way easier and cheaper too mod than a Z06. And if you get your Z06 for 50K flat and you get your Supra for 25K flat then you have 25K to mod it...go single in the Supra and you'll rip the Z06 a new...

A Z06?! bwwwhahahahaha!

Look kid, you need to go over to suprastore.com, and check out those supras. They will tear a new asshole in a Z06.

and you're in MD? Get your Z06 and I'll bring my friends Supra up for the day...

I think you'd be a little :o :o :o

You gotta admit the Z06 is a damn good buy for 50k. Plus they don't sell new Supras anymore . Why Toyota, Why!?!?

I think our prayers may be answered in 2003! The new Supra should be out, I hope.
