  • I like both cars :) I own a Firebird and my next car will most likely be a 350z if I can find one at the right price.

  • That 350z didn't even get a good launch and still almost caught up to the Pontiac.

  • American Muscle all the way!!

  • Go directly to 0:33

  • AMERICAN MUSCLE shouldnt the hot wheels nissan be somewere drifting ....

  • Both cars are one of the most beautiful ones :)

  • yeah thats a strip. now on a cannonball run the Z would kill it. the thing is its TURBOCHARGED not supercharged. turbochargers dont give you much of a boost untill your at higher RPMs. see if he has a supercharger his torque would be jacked and would have dusted that firebird. im not a fan or firebirds.

  • @jayjaystiffymcninja your saying that if it was something else then it would win. well its not. the 350z lost. and stock against stock the 350z will always lose.

  • lol that was such a bad launch from the 350z it started like a second behind the firebird

  • respects to both cars in street trim!!

  • wtf!! :O

  • please look at the MPH....this Z is a faster car...just need a driver with more seat time

  • wow its a good thing the 350z didnt suck at accelerating, cuz then it would've lost.

  • @OreoMetal it does suck at accelerating and it did lose.

  • @onquarter No shit shurlock, its called sarcasm

  • @OreoMetal oh. how embarrassing

  • dnt mean to spoil everybody's day....fastest acceleration in the world clocked at 9.01 seconds going 167mph Nissan GTR....japs wins : / i do generally like america cars more tho...just being factual....just dnt like ppl dissing just one car wen u wanna talk bout the best...there u go

  • lets see what happens when the z gets a good launch.

    the vq35de is a friggin monster.

  • @bigtom21485 excuses excuses

  • AMERICA RULEE

  • American Muscle all day

    

  • Imports suck

  • American muscle <3

  • Damn, that silver car got smoked at the beginning! lol

  • That TRANSAM.... has a 350 :)

  • Too bad the guy driving the 350z didn't start right or shift right, but kudos to the firebird did a damn good job

  • OWNED

  • Lol i respect both types cuz i've raced and driven both but its is true no muscle can take a corner over 60mph smoothly unless its the three or four lane highway where there is enough space to fit its fat ass from spinning out or crashing. Muscles can win drag strips over imports but in tracks or streets imports pwns muscle over any type of situation whether its speed, turning or handling. If you were a real racer learn to respect both types

  • aint worth nearly as much as good old metal!

  • muscle beats rice everytime and people that say american cars don't do corners have obviously never driven one

  • @2000darren Not EVERY time. I drive a 1968 pontiac firebird and my friend drives a nissan 350z and sometimes he beats me.

  • @2000darren You have to be a huge moron to say muscle beats rice every time. I've beaten TONS of 'muscle cars' with my Z. I recently bought a 2003 Infiniti M45 and I'm smoking 2007 Charger R/Ts. American muscle.....sucks. It's funny to see American car companies FINALLY following Japanese and German building principles with technology, lighter weight and more efficient power.

  • @BlueonGoldZ for a start what i was saying was personally for me, as in my preference is muscle beats rice. as in given a choice i would take a muscle car over a jap car so for me muscle beats rice. now who's the moron?

  • @2000darren well, for a start, you're still the moron because you should've wrote that YOU PERSONALLY feel that way cuz in your original post, you never stipulated that. Secondly, you're STILL a moron for preferring 'muscle cars' over Japanese cars. Hell, even my M45 with it's 'tiny' 4.5 liter V8 is walking 5.7 Chargers.

  • @BlueonGoldZ oh sorry i'll just go outside and shoot myself in the head.....asshole

  • @2000darren I'll do it for you if you want. LOL, even my guns are imported.

  • @BlueonGoldZ yeah you come do it for me

  • Dang.

    About cornering: I'm not a fan of American sports cars (except the new Zr1), but the 2005ish Camero can corner pretty damn well. I took a 90 behind one in my '03 Impala, Mine oversteared in true Detroit fashion, but he flew around it like it was nothing, and accelerated going away. No modifications of any kind. I was impressed.

  • @afleetalex05 too bad they didnt make camaros in 2005. stopped in 2002 and picked back up in like 08 or 09

  • Firebird ROASTED em out the blocks...

  • horrible race, but idk wat to say, hondas are slow ass good for nothing cars, cept cruising... dont look good, cant go fast, cant burnout, cant do anything with them cept put a bunch of slump in it i guess, ther made for all the ppl who arnt car ppl that jus wana drive an never open the hood for nothing, idk why u would wana trick one out or try to make it fast wen the car isnt even designed for going fast

  • Formidable cars, both of them, but I like the Firebird better. No replacement for displacement, people. Still, I would've liked to see how close it would've been had the Z's driver not had a bad start.

  • @ TheBeer274

    you cant recycle plastic!

  • @pranksta365 Actually, you can. :)

  • Whoever argues over cars is a fucking moron. END OF STORY. We all have a passion for cars and have oil pumping through our hearts (excuse the cheesey-ness) so quit trollin'.

  • @thebeer274 fuck you

  • @TTreptiles LOL that the best you got, cmon you can do better than that cant you?

  • Thank god the Z had that wing on it

  • the firebird is auto i think lol

  • the Trans Am looks and sounds better, is easier to work on, less expensive from the factory, and is a Legend in its own time.Japs got nothing on that.

  • @350jake Guzzles fuel and has seriously poor mpg... oh and don't even attempt to go around a corner lol Japs know how to build cars. you don't.

  • LMAO, everyone knows the shit American cars can only go in straight lines!

    Show the car a curved road and it'll crash and roll over... the firebird got nothin' on the 350, horrible driver in 350

  • @saphalee if you want to go drive on a curved road with a 350 go ahead leave the drag for real men with real cars

  • FIrebird either got a head start or the Z driver has a really slow reaction time. 0.075s, 4.72 mph differences, nothing to brag about.

  • bunch of dip shits they both ran 12's the badass TA won by a tenth big fuckin deal the nissan was 3 mph faster..yeah way to crush the other car

  • im not taking sides but both of those cars are both pretty fast and are good cars for the money, but the trans am got a head start for sure, and im sure there are videos on here of a 350z blowing a trans am or other LT1 out of the water

  • I love American Muscle, but damn he got like a 2 car head start on that....lol Cause if you actually look at the time, he didnt lose by much at all.

  • I love American Muscle, but damn he got like a 2 car head start on that....lol

  • There is not enough rice to mess with the T/A. I know... I drive a 2000 TA with a 383 Lingenfelter(465hp...440 lb ft of torque....So Rice turbo DO NOT MESS WITH AMERICAN MUSCLE!!!!!!!!!!).

  • I own a firebird, but i gotta admit i think the bird got a little head start. haha

  • @IHawk3ye I own a Trans Am and know these things are nothing to be fucked with.

  • props to the firebird for smoking the all show nissan.....

  • @mattaplayaretard,  smoked hows a tenth smoked?

  • i bet you that firebird had less than 2 grand in mods while the nissan had well over 5k. However you cant deny that the nissan was slowly catching up. Both are very nice cars

  • @ford4point0 FINALLY, someone who doesnt hate on one or the other

  • LS1 POWER!!!

  • yeah! awesome :3

    pontiac firebird <3

  • Comment removed

  • so if mercedes benz didn´t invent the CAR the fucking RICE generation didn´t knew what a car is...maybe somthing to eat....this f..g generation can only COPY!NOTHING ELSE!

  • for sure, there was recently an 08 civic with v tec that a couple kids were driving drunk and wrecked it. would never happen in a bird, american muscle teaches responsibility.

  • he had a bad start. the 350 would have won he was catchin up

  • the guy in th Z was asleep at the wheel, needs to try and improve his reaction time

  • now we all know that these are not stock, so if they were stock it would be pretty close....although i am a 350z guy i love muscle...so...yea the firebird would win @ top speed but the 350z would pull it on the take off because the firebird has so much power the wheels would just spin, while the nissan is designed so the wheels dont spin.....thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!!

  • #oops, correction...."philosophy" i mean :D

  • i'm german and i absolutely love american cars and their phisophy of muscle, like to be seen right here "TORQUE FROM THE GET GO"

  • bad driver

  • 350z with a turbo only does 12.8? im shocked. thought it would be a little quicker..

  • 70camaro you are right and wrong it all depends on motor and mods

  • I'm not saying you CAN'T make them fast, they just take SOOO much more effort to make fast versus a V8 car, which can do it effortlessly. My 406 was built inexpensively, with off-the-shelf parts, runs on pump gas with no constant tuning, and ran 11.0's in the heat, and still ran 11.0's in cool weather with no traction.

    BTW, I feel fine, 'cause I've never lost to any.

  • Also i modified my ranger to go 150 at a quarter

  • Guys i have a 1968 fire bird check my video but still its metal and very light with a ram air when they made 7 and its the only convertable it goes 208 with the stock rear end but it blew up because the engines to powerfull so i found some crap 3.78 and it goes 190 still power un modifyed

  • lol fuck american muscle cars

  • A trans am is pretty much the same thing as a firebird in those years, ya just had to get the formula V8 in order to get the LS1 motor

  • just so you know that red car wasnt a firebird. it was a transam

  • I don't get why people think that they're cool cause they can win a race in a straight line. Take these two cars on the track and see who wins then..

  • @Biggs534 proablly bc you have never driven anything with more than 150 hp

  • @Cameron32391 lol what ever makes you feel better, see you and your mini van on the street

  • @Biggs534

    It'd be the same outcome. Cheer up, though...the Nissan does have more stickers and neon lights! lol

  • a win is a win get over it

  • I say crush all the Jap cars and use the as recycling material, make the world a safer place. lol

  • @TheBeer274 imagine people actually cared about what you thought

    how m uch safer the world would be.

  • @xBaitMyScenex Ouch, you hurt my feelings. Go back to mommys teet.

  • @TheBeer274 Hey now, I love American muscle, but I wouldn't go that far. There's some older Japanese models that are great cars: 80s Corolla GT-S AE86, S2000, 240SX, Celica, mid-late 90s Civics, Japanese-spec Integra TypeR...

    Newer stuff is crap because Japan seems to have lost most of its motorsports enthusiasm. I can't stand the majority of new Japanese cars. But there WAS a time where there was enough cool to balance out the blah.

  • @TheBeer274 LOL. I hope you're not serious. Japanese and European cars lead the way which you Americans follow. If anything, those stupid pig heavy Firebirds, Camaros and Mustangs should be trashed.

  • @TheBeer274 Just don't crush the import models : )

  • Nissan Z's are always slow and heavy like cows!, moooo, Lol

  • firebird ran 12.73 @ 107, the 350 ran 12.8 at 110.3 and had wheel spin all the way through 2nd (on 19" wheels meaning he has 2 inches of tire flex...notice the 350 didn't even bother warming the tires up - while the firebird had atleast 6 inches of tire flex and warmed the tires), and the 350 still trapped a higher speed. So taking just tires into consideration the 350 is faster.

  • @boxa87 wait, I'm sorry, who's light lit up first?

    STFU!

  • @xDetroitMetalx what are you talking about? The christmas tree was synced it wasn't bracket racing lol you have no idea what your talking about. If you watch the staging lights you will even see the firebird got the jump since his first staging light goes out before the Z's. HAHA your so stupid! To make you feel even dumber, you can't even see the other side of the tree due to a shield that divides the lights so the other driver doesn't mistake the other light for his.

  • @boxa87 So what your saying is the Firebirds time was still faster. lol

  • @boxa87 The firebird ran 110,35 and the toyiota ran 112.812 that´s 2.8 second differance so into consideration the pontiac is faster.

  • @hooliganbrann lol idiot.

  • lol FORGET IT FUCKING RICER;)

  • @TURBOKNIGHTRIDER

    Tell me about it half of those ricer queers dont know what american is- they're republican kids who are degenerate wiggers and all that. :)

  • fuck ricers, support american made cars and trucks

  • Import = rice

  • @moha1911 YES:-)

  • that pontiac is fucking auto 

  • @import8nt FIRST you shut ACTIVATE your F..n Brain before you write ANYTHING Stupid!

  • Wheels on the 350 is not good for drag racing.

  • tiene mejor arranque el trans am o el del 350z esta re pendejo.???

  • Bottom line took a turbo for that z to run 12s idk what altitude this track is but I know of a ls1 z28 with less then 1k into it running almost 11s up here in colorado with full weight. Thats somthing that almost no other car i its price range can accomplish. 5 thousand dollar car 1k upgrades runs almost 11s at one of the highest tracks in the nation.

  • take that ricers

  • also like to point out. that even on the late launch, that the end times were 0.12 difference.

    and there was DEFINITELY a larger gap than that on his reaction time.

    imho the 350 launched at the same time as the trans/bird would be faster.

  • @lovindatuba not trying to be an asshole but if the time was faster for the trans am. the clock starts when you leave in drag racing. not when the third yellow flashes

  • @racerkid2186 rofl i drag race. i know that. i'm saying it wasn't a huge difference at the line

  • @lovindatuba also, the trans am left .18 too late and the 350 .20 too late. so he has .02 of a second jump. not substantial for street cars

  • @racerkid2186

    hahahahahaha your an idiot. i'm not trying to be an asshole either. but what you just said is stupid... why do you think there is reaction times.

    and a .2 second difference or a .02 as you said. you would not be capable of noticing it... just fyi....

    so.. the 350 if left on the same point. would still win... u fail /thread

  • lol. if you watch, and watch closely. the vehicle didn't beat the 350z it was the driver of the 350 not being to great at the TREE.... watch the beginning, watch the firebird/transam jump on the tree correctly. and notice the late launch from the 350z.

    now watch this tho. at half track, the 350z had made up all but about 2 car lenghts.... so... had he left 2 seconds faster, he would have easily walked away from the transam.

  • Thumbs up for AMERICAN MUSCLE! ^^^^

  • @EnemyRCA NOTE that the 350z was the worst fkkn driver that i have ever seen..... Z car owners need to know that to race with the Z that you first have to stall it on your 2 RPM than you will get the best launch but also remember to turn the VDC button off before any race

  • @streetrunnazclik It's not the driver. it's the car. They're slow in the face of some muscle. get over it. why do you think they are called rice burners? Because all they are good for is for rice lovers.

  • @EnemyRCA the car is 90 % plastic.... but then again...

    so are most americans.

  • @Crazybenjiwoo yea their fat asses

  • @Crazybenjiwoo true not classic cars....those are fuckin steel man those NEED a v8 engine with torque to hall the wieght

  • @EnemyRCA FUCK YOU AND YOUR AMERICAN MUSCLE, DIDN'T YOU SEE THAT Z CATCH UP TO THAT PIECE OF AMERICAN SHIT!!!

  • @cruise30 I think the race is won by who gets to the finish line first not by who did the most "catch up" so one up american muscle

  • @Cameron32391 AND I THINK YOU ARE A FUCKING ASSHOLE, SO NOW WHAT???

  • @cruise30 oo someones a honda civic owner

  • @Cameron32391 TRY A BMW M3 (TURBO) OWNER???? YOU FUCK.....

  • @cruise30

    And how about you remind us again WHO got the win light???

    Thought so. ;)

  • @70camaro406 FUCK YOU!!!! YOUR AMERICAN PIECES OF HEAVY ASS SHITS DONT LAST!!!!!

  • @cruise30

    Why so angry? You on the rag or something? You must like the imports then, since you're crying so much when we make fun of them. lol

  • @70camaro406 YOU MAKE FUN OF THEM BECAUSE DEEP INSIDE YOU WANT THEM SO MUCH!!!!

  • @cruise30

    LOL!! Riiiiiiigggggghhhhhhhht...LOL.­..I make fun because kids like you try so hard to defend them, and honestly, they're not worth defending.

    You know you REALLY want a muscle car. If you took a ride in a powerful V8 car, trust me, you woundn't waste your time with the 4 bangers.

  • @70camaro406 OK....OK....OK....YOU COULD BE RIGHT...BUT TELL ME WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THOSE LITTLE 4 BANGERS THAT YOU HATE SO MUCH, SMOKE YOUR PRECIOUS V8'S, TELL ME HOW DO YOU FEEL WHEN THIS HAPPENS? LIKE FOR EXAMPLE THIS VIDEO, AND OTHERS HERE ON YOUTUBE??

  • @cruise30 the firebird won in this video and it means that a lot more time and money was spent. I feel good still because it means I spent less to do just as good and most of the times better. I respect 4 bangers to a degree. The 4g63 is in my opinion the best 4 banger

  • it was a transam dumbass not firebird

  • @brent3360 a trans am is a kind of firebird. so if its a T/A its a firebird

  • Thats what the fuck im talkin about smoked his ass my 94 firebird formula is stock but comes with the cold air intake and smokes punks all the time,but can i do to get more power out of it and better handling?

  • @KevinJrBurnstv Put the big ass 5" fart can muffler on it(good for about 300rwhp), put lots of racing stickers(20hp per sticker) and install one of those 4 foot wings on the back.  The wing should give you another FULL G of downforce on the skidpad. Enjoy!

  • real cars dont power the front wheels they lift em

  • what is done to that car?

  • If it aint 8, leave it in the....oh, who am I kidding, I love all fast cars. Gotta love the sound of a 4 barrel opening though.

  • muscle is great for what its designed for straight lines

  • @81TransAmJunkie .....every time!

  • 350z driver started late and i love both of these cars hurts to see won lose over the other wonder what the pontiac had under the hood non stock wise

  • american muscle!!!

  • my nsx would have show'n him wats really goody

  • @racingchamp101 proof or your just stupid

  • @asaaqas buy me a new computer!!!?

  • @racingchamp101 what you have an nsx and you cant afford a new computer??

  • @eastbayryda510 the nsx was 13,000$ because i bought it salvaged it was totaled but the engine still work i was looking 4 bus at the time.shit i could have bought a firebird for 2,000$ and dump a shit load of money into it but i can't afford a new computer because i got fired.

  • @racingchamp101 that sucks to hear about ur job man, but a nsx for 13K? i dont give a fuck if its salvage ill still buy that shit.

  • Why put 370z in the tags if this is a 350!? A hole.

  • 350Z Isn't rice.

    I don't understand why going in a straight line determines the overall speed of a car.

    Of course the high-torque car is going to win in this situation, put both of these cars head to head on a race track. Maybe the outcome will be a little different?

  • @dbarrera12 A straight line race says a quicker, better statement.

  • looks like the 350z driver was asleep

  • imports are for little boys and young girls , american muscle is for men

  • bad launch on the z other wise outcome Z FTW

  • 350z driver was sipping drink when they started!!

  • Turbo'd and it ran 12.8? A turbo on that Firebird would have dipped it into the 11's... more than likely anyways. Did the Z launch very softly? Seems like it has alot more in it.

  • lol the 350 still almost won and started real late

  • @kevinleday900 Like almost 3 to 4 car length behind, but in a nutshell he still lost.Put a turbo on the T/A and see what the end result would be!

  • I know of a lot of z's that run 9s.. And yeah whatever happened with the driver is on him, not the car.. I guess the GT-R is a ricer car two huh! I love muscle and imports.. My debate right now is my next car to buy 2010 camaro ss or the 370z any suggestions???

  • @jugerknott09  I just got my 370z sport and love it. If you like throwing your car through the turns and driving the twisty roads I would go for the Z. Its the best bang for the buck in that department. Having said that......the ss is not as loud inside, got more room, and it would make for a better straight line car. I would say drive em and see for yourself. The Z is a street legal gocart and puts a smile on my face every time I drive it. Most reporter say the same thing. good luck.

  • could be bracket racing, or the z driver sucks ass

  • lol the guy in the 350 is asleep and does not know how to drive. firebird has better driver

  • Wow. Was the Z driver dead when the tree hit green?

    I love Zs, but it looks like dude is trying way too hard to make his look like a Porsche.

  • wut the fuck are u talking about look like a porsche? learn something about cars before u open ur mouth retard. and the fuckfuckface below(mik0hardon): go die.

  • @Ptedes1639 Learn something about cars? From the way you responded, it sounds like I have a hell of a lot more intelligence than you.

    I know for a fact that a T/A came stock with an LS-1 and that the 350z came with a VQ35DE and later a VQ35HR.

    DE will run mid 14's stock. A good driver could maybe pull high 13s. HR will run low to mid 13's stock.

    Yes, that NISMO spoiler on that Z coupled with the goofy sideskirts and rims makes it look like a wannabe Porsche. I own a Z. Don't argue. ;)
