    Default Porsche Boxster S vs Nissan 350z

    old man in a silver boxster S is driving behind me, and we both catch a light on peachtree industrial blvd. he pulls to the right lane and gives me a look.. and smirks... so i could tell he was going to show off his porsche .. and i decided id give him a good run, lights is about to turn green... i keep the rpms around 3k... and my hands are gripping the leather on the steering wheel.. i can hear his boxer 6 revving in the background.. and pow.. light turns green.. i slight slip/he dumps.. he spinning and a little ahead.. and then i dump completely i slingshot ahead with tires chirping loudly, grabbed 2nd as soon as my shiftlight alerted me.. and spun/chirped .. he's about a half a car back, 3rd.. i let out a little chirp.... and now i am ahead by about one car.. slam 4th in and im pulling...

    anyway.. put 2 cars on him by 120mph :idb:

    NICE Kill. But the older Boxsters arent that fast. However in the last comparo by Motortrend, the boxster came in first and the 350z lost.

    Yes I know, just pointing out. And I would buy the 350Z and with the money left over get the stage 3 stillen superchager. Then I would be as fast as a 911 Turbo. Then with that mone left over id.....
    the list is endless, the point is the 350z is a nice ass car.
    My, my. What the hell did I start here?

    I know that the M3 is $55000, however put it against a stock Boxster S and youl beat it. Hell spend the extra $5000 and get the Club Sport M3, and $ for $ you'll still be faster. However its down to personnal choice, Porsche Excellence, or BMW Innovation. I would choose the M3, but then some of you may disagree.


    BTW, WHAT THE HELL IS A POS?

    the last porsche boxster S wasnt really slow, i mean it was a high 13 second car

    the best way to go on the Z is turbo

    i have seen G35 6mt coupes hit 14.0's trapping around 95-98 mph

    and i have also seen Z's hit 13.6 trappin from 101-104 mph

    i have not taken my car to the track as of yet, but on gtech i run 13.5xx's all day

    for about a week ud be as fast as a 911, then you sling a rod.

    lol

    those cars arent holding up to the bigger blowers and twin turbo kits.

    we just put another built motor in another one...

    people with the turbo'ed z's up the boost as if it were nothing.. the twin turbo kits should be safe untouched.. ie: the greddy twin turbo kit... keep the boost that comes in the emanage and you'll be ok only increase boost until 1. you build your motor... or 2. someone in ga with enough z experience comes along

    The G35 sedan Auto is Definately faster ten the 350z Auto.
    I was riding in the backseat of the (2004)G35 with 4 other people and a 350Z Auto was following us to the game. Then we stopped at BK and on the way out the the Z and the G (ha that rhymes) were next to each other at the going onto I85 they both floored it an the G was on the outside lane, the Z came up quick and was 2 cars ahead but then the lane cut into one and there was a huge shoulder so we just flew by him on the shoulder and cut back in front, at 95mph we were even but at 120mph the Z was ahead by 1 car or so.

    But we wer on the downhill so maybe thats why, but I would still love the Z's

    Old men in high performance cars make me laugh. All that money they spent in a car and they can't even drive.

    I laugh at people that own high performance cars [like a STi] and can't even do their own work. That's funny to me.

    Who cares if they don't do their own work, all it matter is who's down the track the fastest. So that's funny to me.

    What kind of numbers does your little "high performance" porsche put out???

    I'm too lazy to go look them up. Its slow. Its NOT high performance.

    If you drive a Porsche boxter you had BETTER not be of the MALE gender. And if you are... there's a term for that - i believe the term is "FAG"

    By the way, the 2005 Boxster S has a faster slalom time than the Ferrari Enzo. Does that make the Enzo a POS?

    car and driver slalomed an MP3 (protege) faster than an boxter S 2 years ago and thats only a 20k car. :jerkit: ......

    and about the auto x comments... AWD sux. this is my second year and ive never seen a AWD win outright or even in class except for one maybe and hes a pro driver (all driver skill, not the car)...and ive driven WRX's on track b4 and they feel cumbersome and body roll is a bitch. if the S is anything like the n/a sw20 mr2's then it would rape an STI on the track!

    I said the 2005 Boxster S. There is a larger difference between the previous gens and the '05. Read before you reply.

    True, NA Supra is slow - I'm sure glad i dont have one. Please refer to your suffix guide to find out what "T" stands for.

    Keep in mind that those numbers you just gave are power at the FLYWHEEL.

    Put the boxter up against a REAL high performance car at the track and let me know how things turn out.....


    You wish you had one huh??? Please refer to the vocabulary term posted above.

    If youre not smart enough to get that.... YES I AM CALLING YOU A FAG.

    He said in this thread, and I have to agree. The boxster is an extremely well balanced car. They are excellent track cars and anyone who disagrees should research a little more.

    Please READ the post..... YOU are the one that brought a Supra into this thread, not me.

    There is no reason to be comparing a single turbo supra to a damn boxster, 350z, or whatever else you are trying to talk about. So why did you bring it up?? I left it alone... but did you??

    Please go prove someone who gives a damn wrong, cuz youre wasting your time with me

    I'm not saying anything else on this thread.

    Have a nice day!!!
