yeah but 3rd doesnt take off as fast as 2nd and plus there is plenty of room to go to second when your doing 40mph. 2nd gear pulls all the way to 65mph if im not wrong.

I actually asked a similar question the first day I bought my Z. But every time I took a small break from driving it, it seemed to get better. The only problem is 1st to 2nd. There is so much torque compared to my rsx that I have not gotten used to it yet. And right around 3.5k rpms be careful speeding up to pass someone if your going to compare the Z to an SI because the Z seems to want to play bumper cars with the car infront of it
