And I would call that a conservative estimate. I've seen as low as 13.17. Gotta give Honda credit there. A 13 second car is impressive for an engine under 300 hp. Nope, a 350 Z would have a lot more fun with a NSX 3.0 auto.
I assume you are talking about the 3.2 not the 3.0.

Yeah, if my memory serves me correctly, there's about a 65000 dollar difference between the two...thats about ten thousand dollars for every tenth of a second.

when the Z gets it's twin turbos from Nismo, I'm sure it'll be back up there. I've heard people whining about the new Z not having turbos, and it's so stupid b/c this N/A V6 is pushing out about as much as the old VG30DETT was. When this fucker gets some turbos, it will be way ahead of the old 300zx TT.
I would never get an NSX. I can either put $100,000 into an NSX, or I could put $36,000 into a brand new, fully loaded Z and the remaining 64,000 into the engine and I would guarantee I would have a 9-10 second 350Z for the same money as a stock NSX.

who told you that NISMO is making a twin turbo kit? i know of 5 aftermarket co.'s that are making bolt-on TT kits right now. most namely GREDDY, they say it makes a SAFE RELIABLE 350whp. but who need safety and reliability? All your going to have to do is turn up the boost and add MO FUEL and bam you got 500whp. that's in the 10's!
oh, didn't know that. I knew Nismo was working on something before.
either way, NSX is money down the drain. now that I look at it closer, I now say that 350Z could run 8's or so with the money saved by buying a 350 over an NSX.

nsx is the only reason why you should give honda credit. fuck the rest of the hondas
I would never buy any honda, EXPECIALLY THE NSX. Every model sux my ballz except for the S2000 and the NSX, and If I'm gonna pay that much for a brand new NSX, it better run 9's stock.
