The 370z is slow?

What about 1-mile or 5 miles or 100,000 miles. I can put this car on the limiter at 155+mph here in Germany. That is not slow. It also gets there pretty quick as well.

My car is bone stock and the only pushing me out of the way, on a good day on the Autobahn is something like a GT3 or Turbo 911. They have much more horsepower but they are not blowing me off the road in anyway.

There is always something quicker or more powerful but in the US at 68mph on cruize control is there any debate to begin with LOL!???

If you get to drive this car they way I am lucky to enjoy it the debate is useless bar talk. This car gets it done and well. Reliably to boot with reasonable fuel economy as a bonus. The Z is a great package. NO question.

Cherry,

The car is great at any speed. I love the feel this car gives at any speed. The acceleration, handling and overall driving experience is very pleasing. Also the car is not a boat like so many higher powered vehicles as well. The size even here is great as parking around this part of the world is tight sometimes!
I think we would all enjoy it more if we just not worry so much about the term 'speed'
