The 370Z's is way too sensitive, stays on way too long if triggered by a shadow and doesn't turn the lights on when the windshield wipers are on.
In my Saturn Ion if I have the windshield wipers on for more than 30 second the headlights come on (if in auto) and turn off about a minute after the wipers have been turned off.
