For the first couple of weeks of driving my Z, I felt like I might have made a mistake, but then I came to the realization that the car was just very solid and very capable and was doing things with such ease that it didn't feel fast even though it was indeed faster.

It goes with the territory....it's kinda like when you go from a Corolla to a Lexus, in the Lexus, sometimes when you are going over the speed limit, you don't even realize it because the car doesn't feel like it's going that fast
