Yeah, I feel the same way--exactly. Just listening to the engine whine out is "music" to my ears. Nothing like it. rich, san jose, ca

of course i love driving my Z easpacailly when it's beautiful outside (which is kinda of rear during this season here in NYC), personly i think the Z got one of the best suspension out there and for the power, it's just right ... i just love the look on people faces when they see me get out.. i'm young, hispanic and coming out of a brand new Z, the look on there faces.. PRICELESS!!

I love my Z. Unfortunately, I won't be able to drive it for the next week until I put on new wheels, since I just got a flat that can't be repaired and I don't want to waste the money on a new OEM tire. I am a little spoiled though - my husband is out of town and I'll have to drive his Z until mine is better.

I've done the beer run several times myself....the local microbrwery here just happens to be located in the thick of the curvy scenic mountain roads.

Two things drive me to drive the Z

The exhaust note brings tears to my eyes still (I just love to find a tunnel and brap the throttle to about 2500)

The 4200 RPM upshift puts you into a really smooth place in the powerband I just click off gears til I cruise at 90MPH on PCH.

Great roads in So Cal from Palm Desert to Idlewild or Hemet. Love this car, sticks to the road with VDC. I have VDC off unless on the turns.
