Compared to like coopers and hondas?

Yes, definitely. I agree with others who responded to your post/initial question. It has taken me 10 months to begin to feel smooth in my Z. It is much harder to drive smoothly than my RX-8, which was a high-revving, low-torque car. Don't give up.

Bought mine around September and had a ton of issues with the car. I found that the issue was PICNIC (problem in chair (seat), not in car). I found that if I let it rev over 3K and shift between 4-5K the car shifts wonderfully. Some may think I am nuts (for many reasons) but I run to 5 in first then shift around 4500 on average with other gears. In traffic, I will run in first for awhile and not have to mess with shifting. Just me though... On a side note, take it to 7K then shift and you will not even hear a pause in the process. JUST AWESOME....
