also after watching all the 370z reviews they all said "if you really using the S-mode you really shouldn't be driving a M/T" ... therefore i am practicing everyday all day, driving with that thing off but i don't think i am getting it right, or how is supposed to.
Those people that are claiming you shouldn't drive with SRM are idiots, and probably just jealous. We have the technology, and it makes driving more enjoyable many times for me, so why not use it? It's still a manual car, you just get a little bit of modern convenience. You paid for the sport package with SRM so use it!
