The 350Z has the highest driver death rate in the country.
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Don't mean to sound like a dick here, but 300ZX guys are constantly insulting 350Z drivers and I'm wondering if there's a reason why........(P.S. I know there is)

Insurance rates must suck.

Because it is quick but cheap enough for teens to somehow afford to license and insure. Boom.

Wait until these 400+hp v8s are like $7000.

Yeah, a lot of them drive like complete idiots. Saw the aftermath of one of those dudes, not sure if they survived or not.

I can confirm - my roommate got a G35 as a first car and he's spun it off the road a couple times.

Quite confused by this statement. The 350Zs are V6s and already around the $7000 mark. Meanwhile, F bodies are 300+ stock and easy to push over 400. They are going for around $7000 too and have just as appalling crash statistics.

Well most kids are not going to mod a F body to have >400hp. 350zs are this price, that's my point. They are cheap and common. Most F body people are just straight line drivers too, the 350Z these kids are trying to drift them i'm sure.
The thing is these new Mustang GTs and Camaro SS when they are that cheap with over 400hp which is underrated compared to overrated LS1 stock power, mostly due to SAE horsepower calculation changes in the 2000s, you are going to see 16 year olds with 400hp cars left and right. That amount of power, high 200s to 420+, is a HUGE difference.
Most of these people who own camaros and the import drivers are different. I hardly ever see a Camaro street racing, meanwhile the dude always revving at you at the stop light is a 350Z or Honda driver.

I see most teenagers in Camaros and Mustangs as those who bought it already modified.

Ya usually like exhaust and wheels or something. Not 400+hp cars. Boltons are not going to get you that far. Most people are not driving cars with head work and cams.
Keep in mind if you are brining up modded cars, 400hp LS1 cars, you could easily bring up modded Coyote Mustangs with 500+.

Makes sense. My insurance actually dropped by about $80/mo when I went from a 350z to a C6 z06...

your crazy if you think that the camaro/mustang drivers are above this kind of behavior. They just choose bigger fish to pick on.

I don't think they are above it. I just see way more people drifting 350Zs than do Camaros. Camaro people seem to only care about donuts and 1/4 mile times. Meanwhile 9/10 of youtube street drifter fail videos contains 240sx or 350z.
