Default Worst Car Ever

Birds won't crap on it, kids run away and scream when they see it, girls asked me "Why didn't you get a Yugo?". Low horsepower, acceleration stinks, 350Z's pass me by the second, I can't imagine why I bought this thing.....

....later on, Whew, woke up from that horrible nightmare.

I've run against and watch a number of 350Z's at the track, man are those cars SLOW! They run in the mid 14's at best. Best part is every person that owns one thinks they are so fast.

I do have to admit the 350Z is a good looking car and very refined. The engine sounds great and it's smooth as silk. Not a bad car if you don't care about neck snapping accelleration.
