So how is everyone pleased with their Z performance wise?

Default Why I picked the Z

I compared the 370Z to the Mustang GT and the Challenger SRT8. I wanted an all-around functional vehicle that ran well, handled great, and had the torque that reminded me of my muscle car days (69 Charger RT, 68 RR RT, and 71 Cuda). Without going into too much detail, the Challenger and GT just did not have the "fit and finish" that I was looking for. Straight line, both were awesome but both failed (in my mind) in handling and quality. I tested the Z last and once i got in, I was in LUST. All radio and A/C controls were within reach of my right hand without moving it from the shifter, shifting was wonderfully natural, visibility was great except for the left side (fixed with bubble mirror), the seats actually hugged me, and the gauges were just perfect and where I could see them. The car is not the fastest on the road as has been mentioned but it drives like a dream, dares me to test its ability to hug the turns, and makes me feel good. Probably not a car for everyone but for me, it has reminded me how much fun driving can be and thus, the perfect car for me. On a side note, my research has indicated that it get stole less often... :-) Seems criminal prefer 4 seaters over 2 in some cases.
