It makes authentic Z engine sounds and looks very close to the Z. I got one as a gift, I love it. It makes a neat desk toy. When I am missing my Z, I listen to this toy and feel happy that I own a Z.

I got that same one as a stocking stuffer for Christmas, I love it. Glad I'm not the only one to keep it on my desk at work to help liven the day up. The screaching noises made by turning the car are the best I think.

+1. I also like the shifting sounds, sounds like my Z and you can press it down to keep it shifting endlessly.
Perfect for me since I own a silverstone.

Does it make the rattle noise from the rear like the 03's do?
Or, what about the tranny grinding noise?
Peace!

If they have them when I stop on the way home, I'll pick up a few and can send one. Heck, I can't believe they're that cheap; nothing's that cheap anymore.
