almost bought a 370z today

iluvbigbutts · 06-24-2013, 11:44 PM

a great deal on a lease but what i did not like was....the 1st to 2nd shifting. every shift from 1st to 2nd i Hated thinking
how my passenger is going to feel with her head rocked back and fourth every time we stop. so maybe this is not the car for me...i was buying with the sport package and downshift was Beautiful...i told them i will sleep on it

I was like that when I first bought it...you get used to it and now all my shifts are smooth. You will learn how to drive her smoothly within a week. 1st gear has so much power waiting to be released thats what makes the head jerk.

You should get it... the 370z has a big butt

Vichtz · 06-24-2013, 11:56 PM

I agree about the gear thing. It takes a while to get used too, its definitely more jumpy than any other clutch I have used. But I drive it very smoothly now, unless im tired

iluvbigbutts · 06-24-2013, 11:59 PM

i was thinking that also but i went to upshifting a 370z...thats how i found this site....and why should i have to learn to shift on a 38000 car....ok...you will think i am a troll or something but i test drove a miata and felt no lag or jerk thats why maybe a Z is not the car for me. i want a Fun car that is fast...a miata is fun but not really fast so i want to love the z.....435 for 39 months 0 down

Yeah!! Looking at the 370 from the back kinda reminds me of looking at a big sexy a** that I want to continue to stare at

iluvbigbutts · 06-25-2013, 12:01 AM

Try the auto, you'll be surprised

iluvbigbutts · 06-25-2013, 12:20 AM

i was thinking of the auto while working with the salesman,but who buys a sports car with auto...the salesman didnt want to hear it wanted to work just on this car that had the sports package of course but there probably similar in price as sports pkg is a 3k option

1st to 2nd is a bit tricky at first due to the super heavy flywheel and long clutch pedal engagement. But after a couple days you would be proficient at it.

The shifting is something I got used to...if you want a smoother transition with the shifting you could change the clutch helper spring ^_^

iluvbigbutts · 06-25-2013, 12:27 AM

what a great sight...there's lots of info on auto or manual...a whole discussion...**** a car is such a big commitment. glad i did not sign...yet!!!

Let's see where this thread goes.

To the OP, test drive an auto with srm.
