We're heading the same way...one thing at a time.

The Z has a number of charactoristics to it that older cars don't - even if they have more under the hood...there are other factors at play with the balance of the Z as well as the lack of a solid rear axle, different suspension tendancies...etc.
Yep, agree. What gets me is that a lot of people seem to think they're taking a huge risk with VDC off. IMHO, the Z is a very easy car to handle - it's very predictable and very stable, even at high speeds, with VDC on or off. So if you know how to handle a performance car, I say turn VDC off and have even more fun.
