Default Just witness 350Z got spanked by silver RSX-?

On my lunch break I was driving southbound on Grand Ave., in Walnut, CA when I 350Z & RSX were gunning up northbound. I didn't see who took off first but what seemed to be a 1-2 and 2-3 shift it was dead even. Much respect to RSX. I thought it was turbocharged but didn't hear any turbo whining. It was crazy, I didn't know RSX was/is that strong. Now I want one.

the power of the k20 . but that rsx must have been modded pretty good b/c the 350z is a fast car.

350z are fast. k20's pull hard thought.

My buddy has a Supercharged 350z, he kills me in my b18c crx all the time.

Yeah, I could imagine a 350z and an RSX-S running neck and neck if the rsx-s had bolt-on's and hondata#4, and the 350z was stock. With those mods, the rsx-s will be trapping right around 100mph.

i thought the interior is sexy. the 350 looks bulky outside but its actually kinda small inside. i thought the ride was pretty good and the TORQUE something hondas dont really have stock. it sure was nice

yea but the 350 is ugly, a lil noisy, and from what i hear, not worth the money for anything but a street racer. its also kinda heavy, and the engine is french.

With my old Type S i could take a Z on the highway with just I/H/E. I'd slightly edge them out. Now from a stop it's a different story. THe z's really aren't that fast. Most of them run like 14.2's at like 98 or 99.

Too bad the G35 is about 5k more than a Z.

Anyhow, the interior of the Z is VERY bland and "plasticy." Great engine and exhaust note, but if I'm paying around $30k for a car, I want a nice interior as well.

I think the Z is ugly from the outside. The G35 is way better, the interior is better, i thas a better exhaust note, and the suspension is clearly better.

I have taken out a few Z's myself.
