Finally! 4500 miles & got my 1st race.....350Z vs SS sedan

Not too much to say except how I continue to be impressed with this lil car.

So I am cruising on the highway, cruise set at 65, when a slowly gain up to a nice silver z.
He looks over then pulls past a lil. I catch back up and give him a little blow off.
Guess he took that as a hint so he nailed it. I was anticipating it so I was on it pretty much the same time.

no drama here.................we were dead even. So much so that it looked like we were pacing each other from 65-110.

So:

*350lbs of passengers SS sedan ≥ 2007(ish) 180lb passenger 350z.

He had some dark tints and I exited after we left off. He has to be like WTF just happened?












*edited so we can stick to topic

I respect your opinion.
But I pass on the holier than thou speech from someone I do not know on the Internet.

Boy likes it, mom likes it.
Guess you would hate the guy that got on it with me with his son on the back of his bike last summer too.

Open road. Very experienced driver. I am bad, it happens.





Differences aside...............I love the looks of your Cobalt

I have had my mini schnauzer to 140 in my cobalt on a nice long open bridge. She just laid down in the back seat.

did you notice if it had a bump in the hood? The 07-08's are quite a bit faster than the previous years. Those two years had a bump, the previous ones were high 13 second cars. 07-08's have dipped into the low 13's, but run mostly mid 13's.
