When R&T put it against the Cayman, they got 4.8. My Z is fastest in March April May.... October and November,in Texas weather.

The automatic Z is geared beautifully. Not many people on this forum are believers of the automatic Z. But those of us who have mastered those paddles while pushing the Z know... You can push the auto to move very quickly. Especially with light suspension and breather mods.

Yea they're gonna be quicker than rowing your own. My Genesus same way vs manuals. I'm still a stick guy at heart. No matter how much faster an auto might be it'll never be as much fun, at least to me, as a manual. But I can't enjoy a stick here. This traffic. This is my first car in auto, my Genesis forum name says it.."GettingOld". Lol. High 30's and Florida traffic stick just blows. Lol.
