Default 03 G35 VS 03 SVT Cobra What is the world coming too???

Ok come on is this even a fair comparison because car and driver did an article on the 2003 G35 Coupe and the 2003 SVT Cobra. I mean come on how freakin good is Infinitis V6 engine? This is ridiculous!!! Can this car really take on a 2003 SVT Cobra that is supercharged? Here is the car and driver article: seriously comparing an 03 cobra to a 6-cyl G35 to me is an insult to all mustang owners and especially SVT Owners please keep in mind that the 03 cobra is running 110 more horsepower than the G35.

I know bro. That is why I was shocked.. How the heck can car and driver compare Infiniti's V6 coupe that has 280HP to a supercharged SVT Cobra that is running 390HP and 390Torque. And like you said an 03 GT could burn a G35 coupe and you're right check this out:
THIS IS AN 03 MUSTANG GT VS A 2004 INFINITI G35 COUPE...LOL I DONT KNOW WHAT THE HECK CAR AND DRIVER WAS THINKING COMPARING TWO CARS THAT ARENT EVEN IN THE SAME LEAGUE...LOL

Article is old, that's all Infiniti had to offer back then. Hands down, the Terminator terminates the G35 and the RX-8 back then and now. Heck, it'll kill the new G37's too lol.

Ill tell ya an 03 G35 coupe is not much to brag about. Not the slowest car out there but not the fastest....by far. Couldnt compare to an 03 cobra in any way what so ever in a race. But the infiniti is luxury and has a couple fancy spots and thats what those magazines seem to like.

Lol... Good ol' burger and some beer...YUM. And yea dude your right freakin import loving snobs who the heck would compare and 2003
Supercharged SVT cobra to a 2003 G35 Coupe???? Tall about comparing cars that arent even in the same league... There isnt many cars from 2003-2004 that can compare with a 2003-2004 SVT Cobra.

Damn I LOVE OUR AMERICAN MUSCLE BABY!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Lol...Dumb Car and Driver..LOL

LOL... Come to think of it yea that is Infinitis new fastest car(G37) LOL. And yea Fobra your 100% right there is now way in hell that the G35 or G37 could even give an 2003-2004 SVT Cobra a run for its money.


LOL...Silly Car and Driver

Talking Thanks Mustang Family

Hey guys nice to see all the mustang family coming together and talking some nice clean car talk. Yea, but when I saw the article on the Mazda, Infiniti G35, and pretty much the king of the 99-04 mustangs (03-04 SVT COBRA), I said okay enough is enough and I had to bring that article to the light and let the mustang family tear it apart. Lol... When I saw the article I was nothing short of total SHOCK ...HMMM comparing Infinitis G35 coupe that has 280hp against a cobra that has 390HP and that have been known to put down around 385HP to the wheels..meaning around 450HP at the crank, HENCE THE NAME "TERMINATOR"... LOL, I dont care how good Nissan/Infinitis VQ engine is there is no way in hell stock or even mildly modded for that matter that it could mess with an 03-04 SVT Cobra.LOL let them Infiniti owners send up there strongest car now the G37 and it would still get smashed by an 03-04 Cobra. Had to bring this article to the light.. Enough about Infiniti and there damn V6..LOL.GIVE FORD SOME CREDIT.. Oh yeah and to all the GT mustang owners here I hoped that you saw the video that I posted on this thread...NICE JOB KILLIN THAT IMPORT RICE THING(G35) THATS FLEXIN THAT AMERICAN MUSCLE!!!

Take into fact that the price range of the G35 and SVT Cobra were similar. Maybe that's why they compared them.
