For many of them, the S2000 was their first EPS sports car experience. I remember the hoopla in 99--a lot of people felt no sports car could ever sell with EPS. The S2000 is very much "numb" compared to a traditional PS setup.
It was mine as well, and the 370Z has a traditional hydraulic power steering system. So perhaps that tells you where I'm coming from. I don't think the 370Z's steering feel is the best ever, but I do think it's better than the S2000, which was annoyingly numb IMO.

The important thing to keep in mind is the feel of steering is very much relative. Does the 370z provide good feedback? My answer would be...compared to my mustang, yes.
Agree.

Quote:
Compared to my S2000, the 370Z felt terrible.
Disagree. But I would agree that the S2000 had better feedback than the Mustang, which feels more like a video game than driving IMO.

Quote:
That said-- can it be said that the steering FEEL is better/worse between the 370z & S2000? Sure. Many people will in fact prefer the steering feel of the 370z. However, claiming the S2000 lacks FEEDBACK relative to the 370Z (in any meaningful way) the way you did looks like you either a) don't have a clue what you are talking about or b) are out trolling
I made it quite clear I'm talking about feedback and not feel, and speaking of having a clue what you're talking about, by your own words the S2000 steering feel is lacking compared to a "traditional power steering setup" which is what the 370Z has.

Given your previous claims of being the only man alive that can feel the L/R articulation of a solid rear axle, I'm inclined to believe it is the latter.
Edit: Never mind, I'll take the high road and let you be the troll.
