like odysseys and girly hatches and such.
For me, the car is fast enough and that cute butt can't be beat. The exclusivity is what is attractive for me. Mustangs and American muscle cars are all over the place.

For sure, the looks are amazing! And I don't see many of them at all which is cool, at least for now I don't see many

that deceptive lack of speed in the z is scary... looked down and I was substantially higher than the posted limit. oops.

I mean I was doing 130km in a 90 zone and it felt like I was going 90. didn't help no one was around and I was like well shiat. gotta slow down.

This is true. 3 red lines and you are going 120.

If you drive the Z in the lower speeds at higher revs, you'll feel like you're going faster than you are. But you'll be burning a shyt ton of gas.

Drive it in the proper revs and the speed will creep up on you.

Or Pirelli P Zero if you like road noise and don't mind sacrificing tire life for grip.
