From my point of view (mind that I live in Italy so fuel, insurance and taxes are high) the 370Z is on a completely different scale than the FT, both in performance and costs.
We're talking about
:
10-11 vs 6-7 km/l
335+ hp vs 200
19" vs 17" tyres
My father has a 350z 280 cv (which by the way is a lot slower than the 370z) and I wouldn't be able to afford it.
The FT will have costs similar to a small hatchback (Cooper S, Clio RS etc) and that's the reason I'm considering buying it!
I drove a 370z with a full exhaust, 365 hp on the dyno (this one
), and my clio would be a fastly reducing spot in the mirror in a drag race...so the same would be true for the FT86.
Compare the other video to this:
Even to the eye the Nissan is so much faster...
