EVO magazine this month have put the 07MY zed up against the Z4 3.0 coupe. And whilst they rate the Z4 very highly, the ZED comes out on top in all areas.
The new engine gets their vote and as they state, "The 350's new V6 feels good for every last one of its 309bhp." On the Millbrook mile straight the Zed recorded a 0-100mph of 13 secs dead which is quicker than the Monaro VXR.
They recon the Zed feels better on the road than the Z4, is faster and is ultimately better value for money. IMO, their final summary says it all - "if you really want to drive, the 350Z is unquestionably more capable, inspiring and ultimately, faster over all typres of road."
