Agreed. Seriously, you have a what, 1000lb advantage? Not to mention that 355 your pushing. Not comparable. Now, had you smoked a 600+hp GTO I'd be impressed.

I did.
And to those that don't know, the Z is a track car, not a 1/4 mile car. Oh, and 400hp V8 vs 287hp V6... please. It wasn't even a race.

the Zs are nice, but style-wise, there just something missing...

NO WAY, apparently you haven't ridden in a new GTO yet 
In my opinion they sound fantastic stock inside the car but could be a little louder on the outside. For a stock true-dual exhaust system on a 400HP V8 it sounds awesome.

I have a 250hp V6 that REALY is a REAL track car that I'll give a Z a few lengths and still show my rear bumper
Oh and by the way it says 350Z on the bottle...so it's not stock either 
and I'll take the GTO over the Z anyday of the week!!!
