So here I am riding this 135s arse for doing 50 around a small bend in a 60 zone. I make a pass on the bend give a bit of gas and then when the road straightens up he decides to "race" me as I was trying to speed up to overtake. So I just let off and let him go. Anyone can go fast in a straight line. It's the curves that make it fun.

This is literally the case with 90% of drivers now. Too scared to use their torque in the corners and rather feel it on a 1/4 drag style.

For those that are bored with the car, please pm me. I'll send you my address and you can ship the car to me. Please ensure that the title is signed and that there are no liens on the vehicle. Oh and don't forget to send both keys. Thank you.....

Turn the VDC off unless in inclement weather.

That will cure you!

Over all my Z produces a lot of new rattle and sqeeching sounds, bored i am not.....annoyed am i? Yes.

Low....lowend torque and weak synchros in the manual trans are my only major issues with this car, everything else is a positive except for any future CSC failure.

Haha..you know Im just kidding about my comments. I love the Z but I wish it had the torque of the V8. But the Z is such a fun fast car and a looker.

As I always say "life is not lived in a straight line it has lots of twist and sharp difficult turns and it's nice be driving a Z when that time in life comes along" lol

If you pay top dollar I'm sure there will be a line of owners willing to sell and upgrade to something better, more powerful and another toy that fulfill what the Z lacks.

It's human nature to get bored with something especially after owning it for 4-5 years. Look at GTR, Lambo, Porsche owners... they get used to their power and spend a fortune to make it go faster or sell it for something else. To us Z owners with inferior power, that wouldn't make sense at all.

Back in the days I owned a 600cc crotch rocket that did low low 11s stock, after 2 years the power became boring and only put on a few hundred miles the next few years just to keep the battery alive.

After a while you can get tired of anything. But for me, the Z is perfect. Not the fastest, not the slowest, but it is the most unique. I see Camaro's, Stangs, Vettes, BMW, and the whole lot; you seem them frequently. Every street light there's another. But not the Z, I can go quite a while most weeks and not see very many. Always get compliments and thumbs up. But I never get bored with it.
