First off, I think you're already fully aware of the differences between an automatic and a manual. Your old car involved hitting the gas....and that's it. It's going to take some getting used to, especially with the Z's finicky transmission.

60k miles isn't a lot, but some basic maintenance will certainly improve things. Resetting the ECU might also help. I could be mistaken but I think ECU learns from driver input. If the previous owner was easy on the car, the ECU may have adjusted.

If all else fails, buy some mods and have it tuned with UpRev.
