I kind of like it. Most modern F1 and Sports Prototype looks leave me cold, but the Delta Wing is very refreshing. Hope it races again. I still can't figure out how it can corner with that...

I'd like to know too. I envy my girlfriends Miata. You just barely lift it off the floor and it engages. Screws me up every time I switch cars.

I never skip gears on the upshift, but often when downshifting. I also still like to heel and toe myself and not use the auto rev match feature.

I recently purchased a 2010 Z and checked under the battery cover for the first time. How in world do you remove it? It is so far under the cowl and up front there is a bank of fuses. Hope I...

I've never had a problem parking in the city until this recent event and I've been doing it for 20 years. I parked my previous car, a nice Bimmer, on the street for over ten years and never had a...

Super GT races

I'm not sure where to post this. Does anyone know where I can find full races from the Super GT series back when it was called JGTC? I know they raced the Z in GT500 in 2004 and was hoping to...

That's weird. I know of 2 other Zs within about 3 blocks of my house. They seem popular in the Chicago area, which is strange considering our weather.

I agree that for street driving, which is 90% of what I do, the manual is more exciting. For everyday driving, I find the automatic terribly boring. Even when stuck in traffic I prefer the...

There is a huge difference. First of all, your left foot is just as important as your right in getting the car going and shifting gears. There is something satisfying about feeling the clutch...

Hey, thanks alot. Do you happen to remember how much? I'm not too worried about deep snow. Just the odd inch or so. I had Continentals on my BMW and thought they were great tires.

All seasons?

I recently purchased a 2010 Z with the sports package and the rear tires show some wear. Living in Chicago I was hoping, when I replaced the tires, to buy all seasons. I can't afford dedicated...

I must say I was disappointed with the reliability of the BMW. I had always owned Asian cars and they were bullet proof. The Bimmer reminded me of old American cars. Made funny noises when cold,...

I've only had my Z for a little over a week and quit using the syncrorev real quick. Takes all the fun out of downshifting a manual. It might be better at the track, but I'm so used to blipping...

I just traded my 325i for a 2010 Z about a week ago. Loved the Bimmer but this is a real sports car. I smile every time I just tap the throttle and it snaps my head back. Of course the BMW was...

Yes, the my BMW was the polar opposite of this car. Very heavy clutch and a really long throw shifter. I went from a Honda to that so it took some getting used to as well. My friend has a...

Thanks everyone. I was driving around yesterday and found that as long as I accelerated slowly I was much smoother. Hopefully the fast stuff with smooth out as well with practice.

Intelligent key replacement

I just purchased a 2010 Z and unfortunately it came with only one key. The previous owner promised to mail the other key to the dealer but never did. Not a Nissan dealer by the way. They said...

I just picked up my Z today and while I love driving it fast I'm having trouble just cruising around trying to get nice smooth shifts. Clutch take up from a stop is much easier than my BMW. I...
