I think the Z still remains a superior car in the sense that, you're sitting down low, you get the feedback through the wheel and it seems to offer very similar performance. It seems the only flaw in the Z is that it's front heavy. I'm trying to figure out what would be the best mitigator of this flaw. Lowering the Z's cog has helped reduce the front heft feeling but it's still there. In my opinion. The next Z doesn't have to grow in size or be overly techy. Keep it analog n erase the front heavy feel and it will be the best car for the money at any price.

That said. I'm sure the M2 is still an amazing car with obvious pros being a newer car.
Have you tried lighter front rotors? It lightened up the feel at least for me.

I have slotted stop techs. I'm not feeling them as much lighter than stock. Which rotor do you use?

I use the Z1 slotted and drilled 2-piece on the front and back.
