I had a 350z that was auto, and it was great. But it was also very boring, and I'm absolutely the kind of driver who starts nodding off the moment I get bored in traffic. I also had no interest in spending the kind of money necessary to make a 370z hold FI power if I decided to go that route. I have no doubt you've enjoyed the auto, but definitely not what I wanted.

Until it grenades your tranny. There's a reason why Nissan have disallowed/voided warranty work on transmissions with excessive LC use (I think they say like 10-15 times is allowable or some BS). But it is fun, even in the passenger seat. Though, the Tesla ludicrous mode LC is even better, IMO.

I have LC on the VW as well, but no plans to ever use it.

Took the Z to work today. Boy.....did I get a lot of double takes. Everyone was checking out the canards. They would walk pass the Z and look at the front. Then spin their head around and look again. I don't think they know what canards are.
