I like the blue, too. Not sure about the wheels...

OP: besides the wheels, when you peel out, you lay down a double row of rubber.

I don't know how the syncro rev features in the auto. The manual has a button to turn off feature right and above stick shift.

Good Luck.

I had a 6MT w/SRM before...I'm looking to get an automatic this time...there's no SRM for automatic...eventhough the packages are the same in cost, real cost to "manufacture" SRM is about $30-40 for the 6MT...

WRONG! There's no SYNCHROrev matching in an automatic transmission...in the 7speed automatic 370Z, they have a Downshift Rev-Matching system, NOT SRM...

Oh, thought the D stood for Dork.

SYNCHRO rev-matching and downshift rev-atching are the same exact feature. They are just named differently for each transmission. Since Nissan is the sole proprietor of a manual transmission with downshift rev-matching. They gave it its own name and patent and called it SYNCHRO rev-matching.
If you look up both features by definition, they perform the exact same job. DRM works when you upshift just like SRM. So nissans own description of Downshift rev-matching is inaccurate.

Is it called SRM in automatic transmissions by name? NO
Is it called DRM in manual transmissions by name? NO
Is DRM and SRM the same exact feature and function exactly the same in either transmission? YES

I hope this clears the SRM DRM dilemma.
