I have a friend who tracks his Z all summer and he doesn't have brembo brakes. He is ususally at the tops of the standings.

Oh yea, I do dislike the look of the stock breaks. I haven't really tested the breaking power yet, but I do think the breaks should have been more appealing--larger (painted) calipers, discs. Ohh, and the auto A/C...i really dislike this feature! Besides that, looking through the rearview mirror isn't much fun either. But i guess these are all minor annoyances really..

I dont like the drive by wire accelerator. The response is unpredictable. If it were a direct mechanical linkage, the respsonse would be instant and the shift points a little more predictable.
P.S. I have an AT wich might help understand the above statement.
I also have the same complaint with my 05 Xterra.

weak spot
Oh for another cup holder! Perhaps nearer the driver?? When I get a cup in one hand and a cell phone in the other I drive in fear! ( oh yes, have to shift with that cup in hand too!)

No matter how I push the button, it takes me several tries to open it.
