Poll: Do you prefer the Synchro Rev or with it Off?

You should actually use the poll feature. I'm curious what other people think!

It goes something like this: Downshift. @##**@#*!!!

I'm hooked on Synchro-Rev. It's just so nifty and I'm surprised it wasn't put on a production car before 2009.
That said, I'm from the old school and I know how to heel-toe, so I poo-poo'ed the idea of Synchro-Rev when the 370Z was introduced. After two months in my Z, a ride in my Mazdaspeed3 showed me I was already getting a little rusty!

Hey, it's not me... it's the car!

Or the sound when you put it in neutral and immediately move the knob to the left (not in 1st or 2nd, just in neutral to the left). But I hear this only blips the throttle without engaging in a gear on SOME Z's. Anyone else confirm?

I remember after I installed my CF shifter ring, I guess it jammed the SRM button in off mode. Drove like 100 meters and was like, "WTF is wrong with my Z lol"...I had to pull over, find a tool to flip the console up, dislodge the button..."phew" lol
