    So my statement still stands?
  2. The suspension, that's all. Check it on Wiki compared to a GT. (PS, I've owned both) Edit: tracking, wheel base, remap, extra torque, extra BHP, GTR brake lines, much desired body kit (check out the owners who've fitted the Nismo kit to a gt), and Mk1, non leather, track friendly seats. Plus the extra strut brace strengthening. And no need to fit Nismo badges, they come as standard Plus, post #87 if your considering buying or modifying any new purchase on a Mk1 http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/105638-stang-thread/page__st__80 PM me if you require any further info

    Yeah whatever, so original However, it's a discussion re a new Z, something you'll probably never own.

    Having scratched the V8 itch, it's more about the occasion, sorry Zedders, but for the money, Ford are peeing all over any mass producer ATM. No innovation since the GTR, some nice dress ups of old models and all that. Infiniti are without a doubt, a quality fit and finish, but my God, they're boring to the N'th degree. What's required is a back to basics ethos.

  6. European 'Stang owner, stock apart from an aftermarket exhaust, on the Autobahn, no one died Edit: He also had a lund tune, this was apparently evident at over 100+

    Primera more like! I like the sound of the bi turbo and hybrid. If only 2 seats, I'm out
  8. I've just decided that I'm not crashing in the near future, that'll be safe enough Others can do as they please in their Volvoesc safety boxes
  9. It's only an irrelevance, if there are none on the road. However, the top of my google search finds this http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/48592-highest-risk-of-dying-in-a-350z/
  10. Both my 370's were very child unfriendly, they didn't like being put in the boot Strudel, care to post what systems the 350 has? Just out of interest and balance
  11. Did you see what he's quoted for shipping a bonnet Jim?, £130, that's a feckin bargain. The bonnet themselves are inexpensive, it's always been the shipping costs, which the cnuts in tax la la land will charge duty and VAT on the postage/shipping!! Hope Maggie May does a golden shower for the Donald and gets that free trade deal
  12. Unless you're 96 feet tall, you'll not see that view, you've no taste man
  13. I averaged @27mpg on my trip to Italy and back. But around town, winter 17-19, summer 22-25, on a run it's not unusual to get in the 30's. I was disappointed in the size of the tank, coming from the 370 with a 70 litre tank (is it more, I can't remember) to a 61 litre tank was a slight concern, but after last summer getting high 350+ out of a tank, that soon dissipated.
  14. That's a bolt on kit, you provide a base GT, they bolt on $37k or thereabouts of goodness and bang! A beautiful car. It's Shelby America that do them, they're not GT350's or GT500's, Ford own the copyright to these names. I'd still have one in a heartbeat though
  15. Do you know their interests or hobbies? I asked my Mrs what she would like, she's 50+, she said spa day, night away in a nice hotel and you could do The champers thing in their room.
  16. Best gift you can give an employee is time off. What budget? £50 M&S voucher? Extra months pay? I'd rather pick what I do with my time off rather than be sent somewhere in my own time. Being sent in company time is perfectly acceptable
  17. I don't even know what a TN hat is I'm that old!!
  18. I was going to respond to the 'fake' noise misconception, but lost the will to live midway through writing a response I've no idea what the OP wants from a car To those dragsters out there, you can get a Mustang into the 9's, plenty of evidence on line/YouTube without too much money thrown at them. No idea what a Golf or Focus would do, both of those in my eyes are second cars to go shopping in, or drive around with a beanie cap on
  19. Depends on the size you need, limited in Europe ATM.
  20. It looks pretty impressive and the feedback on the bonnet, from the US and UK has been negative, the magnaride and adaptive exhaust are other tweaks that does it for me, however, the UK spec might differ wildly . In saying that, they've done really well in Europe, so, to keep the europeeps interested, they need to compete with the euro manufacturers in terms of spec
  21. You sure? http://www.tyrepress.com/2016/01/2016-ford-focus-rs-fitted-with-michelin-tyres/ Ok not MPS4S, but a decent tyre nonetheless;). Plus the RS Mk3 came a bit early for the MPS4S release
