This is so true! I used to complained how the MT in my genesis is clunky and difficult to shift ( One of my main reasons for not getting another gc) but after a couple of days driving the Z, I switched back to the gc and it felt smooth like butter

You established long ago that you hate the Z -- a leased Z no less. Why do you feel the need to continually rag on the Z? We get it, junior. You hate the Z. We stipulate to that. There's no need to continue letting us know -- all it does for you is to reinforce most of our opinions about you -- that you are a malcontent and a troll of the highest order. Have a great day.

49. When you take her in for service and the service writer gets in your car to read the mileage, comes back, and says "Man, that's like getting into a cockpit, not a car!".

That's a true story, BTW - just happened to me this morning at a Firestone store!

And nobody freak out about me taking my Z to Firestone - it was just for a new battery...

Try 8-9MPG on a good tank!

But, since you're a 370Z hater, why don't you go frequent some other forum? Just sayin...

Well since he is having a hard time enforcing his own decision to leave, I vote that we help him. I think a permanent ban is in order. I've had enough of this troll.

You know you own a 370Z when... you borrow your buddy's truck and keep pushing this with the expectation that it's going to start.

Damn... you trying to make me think twice about buying my Z? Not that I would, but Great Scott, that is an awesome car. I worked on/restored several Corvettes over the years and that's the best one I've seen in ages. Great job.
