dont know if anyone saw it or has seen it but last night on Uk somethingorother on sky had Topgear on, had the comparison between old cars and new, started with Golf Gti, the 205, then a cossy an Mr2 and finally the Zed, the old Golf beet the new one, the old 205 lost to the newer model, the old cossy beat the new focus model, new Mr2 beal the old one, it was left up to the Zed against the 350z, the Zed had a bad start but came in the winner :) it was raced over 1/5 th of a mile for some reason.

not sure if anyone has the film clip? put a smile on mu face though :D

If you've seen Clarkson's newest DVD at the start he races all of the Z's, from the 240 to the 350Z and the z32 trounces the lot !!! then its a very close call between the 260 and the 350

yeah someone posted a clip of it I think, warms the heart :):)

Unless you were the chap with the lil red NA Z32 that comes in 10secs later :'(

Gio's sig has a link to that vid, IIRC. Great day! Great people! The gorgeous 260 that came in third!

Yeah, that video is great. I assume it was Gio's zed that won? With a boost leak etc? Never been challenged by anyone in a 350Z yet, it's mainly scoobies (and a lot of vastly inferior cars), and whilst that was fun for the first week or two the novelty's definitely worn off. Can't believe some dude in an early 90s Golf GTI with an unbelievably fat exhaust even tried it on a month ago. Needless to say I just let him go -- it's just not worth the petrol.

 

But anyway, back to the point. The Z32 is definitely king of the zeds as far as speed goes, although the 240 is a lovely car... and TBH the 350 is nice too. As with Clarkson's video, I imagine the Top Gear episode shows that where the older version of the car is faster, it's probably because the new version is heavier.
