How hard do you drive your Z

I'm still in the break-in period of my Z but I still squeeze in some fun while staying under 4-4.5k. I can not wait until she's past 1200 miles.

When I had my G35 6MT coupe, once she was warmed up (engine and tires), it was fun time.

I don't see the sense in buying a sports car and not having spirited drives and tapping into its performance while still being safe on public roads. I love taking nice curves and feeling the rush of the engine and shifting gears

I had the same feeling. Pulled over, snapped this pic and then did a 1st/2nd pull to 7K. Eye watering fun the first time. Had to tone it down after that. Havn't had a car with this much power since my dad's 66 El Camino (375hp 396 w/4sp).
