Really? Someone forgot to tell me then. I got up to 140 very quickly in my Z. Had plenty of juice left too. I slowed down b/c I got scared.

I think speed/acceleration is subjective.

I think this proves the point that the Z dies somewhere around after 4th gear is done. Look at the 130-140, and then the 140-150 times.

The Z is still a quick car, maybe not amazing in stock form but I can attest that my modded Z can get up to 140 pretty quickly. The better number to look at on the C&D sheet is the .98g skidpad rating!

Yeah, .98G is pretty good. I think for a car in its price range, the Z handles great!
