Yesterday I was lucky enough to get a ride in the new Z with the Sport Package. Although I did not drive, the man driving was an excellent driver. Car definitely out-pulled my 350z with a noticeable amount. He took me through some fun S-curves and man did the car just stick and feel completely flat. Not a hint of body roll. But here is where the car really shinned.... we started to head up a hill, he downshifted first to show me the rev-match system which was just amazing, then selected 2nd and fucing blasted up the hill out of control, we were going 60 mph on this tiny residential street apporaching a stop sign at the top, and he kept on the throttle until what seemed to be 3 feet before the sign. The new brakes I can assure you stop like a mother f$@ker!!!
As for the old "z" feel, definitely felt familiar to me and right at home inside the cockpit. Very cozy and sexy.
I can't wait to pick mine up in a few weeks.
