whats your favorite thing about your Z
Im tired of reading the negative threads and hearing about the shelby, let's talk about our cars without debating if its better than another.
Id have to say my favorite thing thus far is dropping it in second from third around 55 to 60 and laying the pedal down. Such an amazing feeling.

I'm usually cruising in 5th at 70 and drop to 3rd for the same thrill... This car is so damn smooth.

Yep would have to agree. Only thing better is when you do it with the windows down while driving through a tunnel.

I like the feel of the seats when the heat is on, kinda like a Dr. Scholl's feeling. Also like the way the auto rev matches the down shifts when in sport mode, sounds and feels badazz.

Lets all agree the electric assist steering is far more crisp than the previous version.
All in all its a totally different car than my SS is. I just turned over 1000 miles today. BTW, averaged 13.8 MPG since new but I am striving for 10 MPG here on out ! |

I like taking corners at much higher speeds than I ever even thought of in my SS. I like to switch from Tour and Sport on the fly when I see a curve that I want to hall ass around.
