I bought a Z after many years of driving a Camaro SS, Ls1 engine. Let's face it, the Z is not a fast car in the engine department. It's sporty, but that's about the best you can say. The car is meant for running on tight twisty canyon roads where handling and composure result in a fun drive. If you want to kick *** in a street drag race, buy a Camaro or a Stang, but don't complain about the cheap low quality interior or vague handling. Although you can mod the chassis of a Camaro and get very good handling, it will never be as good as the Z on real world roads.
