I don't understand how people don't "feel" the torque in this car?

I may be biased but coming from a s2000 and an rx-8 before that (literally no torque...) the 370z has the most torque out of any car i've owned and it definitely puts me back in my seat.

That said, my friend has a 2002 ws6 and when i'm passenger in that car, yes, the torque is impressive, it puts you back in your seat, BUT (and that's a big BUT) whenever I drive it, it feels "slower" than my car for some reason? Maybe it's me but I don't "feel" the torque as much when im actually driving than when im in the passenger seat not expecting a quick acceleration.

The ws6 and the 370z should be a drivers race "neck and neck" but to some people just the torque of the WS6 would make you assume that the car is faster...

Sorry for the wall of text, basically my point is get what you think feels right. The car feels extremely fast to me, coming from low torque cars like the rx8 and s2000, but its all in perspective.
