wow 5.6 sec. Granted with slight extra HP in US and at 60mph, perhaps we can see this figure drop to 5.4 sec? This is still higher than I expected.

LOL - I agree. I would have never thought that I would be attracted to the Z until recently. Enough so that I am debating between Z and other higher end vehicles (e.g., M3, 911s). I think for the...
