Interesting read on dark horse

[MAGS1]

No thanks on their winner...FWD is a hard no from me. If it was AWD, it may be a different story. And why not include some other sub-100k sports cars? Vette, camaro...they have 2024 models under 100k right...ZL1 anybody? (not sure on dodge...23 may be the last).

They should’ve thrown the Supra in there too. And if they wanted a lower cost option, I’d rather they throw the GR86 in there instead of the Integra. At least that’s RWD.

They only seemingly review new cars that need the advertising, go figure. Otherwise, if cost is such a factor I can't wait to see how much a Honda Fit wails on the garbage Porsche has to offer next year.

Yeah like has anybody talked about the Z in a year? It went down the memory hole so fast I don't think the Nissan forums even talk about it.

The gr twins absolutely deserved to be in the econobox sport cars along with one of thise type N.

To me this was a total half-ass job of a test and an embarrassingly thin "article". I think they just wanted to have an excuse to wank to exotica and the lesser cars were there just as cover.

Seemed like a dud when they revealed it and I don’t think it’s gained any traction since. I have yet to see a new one around here and there’s a ton of 350/370 Z’s around. There’s a performance shop in the area that does a lot of work on Z’s and even they’ve been somewhat quiet on the new ones. They’ve done a few but not many. I don’t follow the Z market much, it’s not a car that interests me at all

There's a small track near me and I actually saw a new Z along with a 350Z owned by a couple there the last time I attended. They looked like they were having fun. I don't think I've seen even one on the street, though.

What does that make the Mustang which weighs almost 200lbs more.

but it has a bigger engine, is a bigger car, and has more HP apparently.
M2 has ALWAYS been a small car at 3700 LBS, that's not what I would want.

but it has a bigger engine is a bigger car and has more HP apparently.

So what? It weighs what it weighs. I doubt the Mustang has more HP. BMW so underrates the S58 engines. They put down near 450 to the wheels.

A likely arguement.... it also with that "under-rated power" ran 3 seconds slower than the dork horse
