You need to be playing Need for Speed: Shift! I picked it up on the 16th, and it is GREAT! And the 370 Zed in this game is VERY good, GTA 4 is good in its own rite, but when you wanna really RACE it, get Shift, you won't be sorry, lol.

That's a pretty good model, but the physics are WAY off.

But, that's pretty much the standard for GTA 4.

I've been playing the crap out of Forza2 again, and it's so much better...I've got the 350z maxed out, and was hitting 221MPH on the straights/backstretch for the Nissan oval track, and exiting corners at 210...but that was only after putting wings and crap on it because it had hardly any rear-end traction. I imagine it's pretty accurate and the 370z isn't that far off.

As easy as it was to lose control of that and severely lose control, it made me realize that I'll never do such a thing with a car I own..lol

I'll second the vote for Shift. It's way better than previous versions of need for speed and IGN called it the best game in the entire franchise.

Great - now there's another "problem" with the Z that Nissan needs to "pull their heads out of their butts" and fix! Even more people will decide to wait to buy a Z until this handling "issue" is resolved!

Hey! How did you manage to get footage of Nurburgring's test drive?
