The 350Z is a high 13 car, best I have seen is 13.7@102 mph. It does 0-60 mph in 5.3 which is decent. The AUTO GT ran a 5.1 to 60 mph and a 13.6 in the quarter. As we are all guessing, the manal should be even faster, around 4.9 to 60 mph and 13.3 in the quarter so the Stang should easily beat it in acceleration. Then when you consider that aftermarker mods for Nissan's are pretty much non exsistent while Ford should have quaite a few for the GT, the Stang sounds even better.
