Even though I LOVE my 370Z but I do believe it lacks the low end tq my VQ35DE had. Those of us (Digitonium, MSpeasl etc) that drove the 03 Z for a long time, we felt the difference. The new VQ is a beast above 4K rpm but below it, it doesn't have the low end power like 03 Z (just my opinion )

I couldn't agree with you more. I can also feel the difference in weight. I think the 03 Base was lighter than my 09 which added to the torque feel.

I couldn't figure out why my 350z felt faster down low compared to my 370z test drive. It's because I was only able to go past 4K on the freeway a few times cuz of traffic.

The new Z may not be the fastest car pre 4000 RPM but above 4K, it's a beast! The acceleration is just amazing and nothing like VQ35DE. I thank the guy who decided to put acceleration lanes before highway - EVERYDAY! oh the sound it makes after 4K =
