Uh, I love my Z but if someone offered me a GT2 for my Z I'd trade in a heartbeat. What can I say? I'm an unbiased car guy.

With uprev or ecutek, they eliminate the lag between shifts.

I traded in a silver 2008 BMW M3 convertible, 6 speed no mods, I believe it was the last year for the V8, for a new 2016 370Z nismo tech in magnetic black with a A/T (wife's daily driver) the Bimmer only had 60K miles on it and I was feeding it a $1,000 every other month, I think the thing about the BMW that killed me the most (besides the $) was the lack of an oil dipstick! funny story about that BMW I went back to the car dealer the next day to give them the extra key and the maintenance records and they asked me if the car only liked me because it wouldn't start and every light was on, I couldn't have planned it any better. P.S. Sorry I haven't introduced myself to the forum I will go to the introduction section and fill in the blanks.

Someone who knows how to internet! Welcome to the forum

You're on topic and didn't start a new thread. You couldn't have done it any more right

That being said, my buddy's nearly stock 1998 M3 is much more refined than my 2011 Z. Shifts are still butter even with 110K miles on the car, and handling is on par with the Z though different. I prefer the raw nature of the Z and my interior is in much better shape being 13 years newer, but that M3 definitely gives an enjoyable driving experience.
