He's gonna kill you...pretty easily if he doesn't screw it up. The new 07 350z has the new VQ35HR engine and makes 306hp with a FAT torque curve. The fastest stock 350Z has done 13.3 at 105mph so good luck!

You would need more than a spacer & exhaust to match the power & efficiency of the VQ35HR...

But in reality, you shouldn't care. He's just doing that to get you upset. Tell him to grow up, stop talking sh!t, and that speed isn't everything about a car.

If I were in your case, I would just laugh and ignore him... that always seems to work great.

IF you were doing this at your local track, expect him to have atleast a half a second (0.5) lead on you by the end of the track with your lightly modded G.

Is it a convertable or hardtop and is it a manual or auto? I know the new Z has the HR motor in it, which is a lot more powerful than the DE, but my friend just baught a brand new 07 350z convertable 5AT and him and i run head and head all day long. If it just happens to be a convertable and just happens to be a auto then you might be able to hang with him.

Take it to the track and find out! Good luck!

Some words of wisdom right there. At the end of the day, WGAS!

You need to THINK. Take the Spock challenge. Ask him:

1) If non-german cars are so "bad" how come he couldn't manage to talk his GF out of a Japanese car? Then
2) In all likelyhood, if his car isn't M powered or not a 540/7/8 series, his GF's car probably spanks his "german mobile". So logic dictates you make fun of that. Then
3) Then to rub it in, mention her engine has much more related to yours vs his. Clearly she has better taste than him. Again
