Default I used to hate my Z but then.........

I have owned three JDM Subaru Sti's a 2000, 2002, and 2004 model and trust me these cars are fast as they are tuned for 100RON gas in Japan. I wanted something different so I switched to a JDM 2005 350Z. At first, i could not get accustomed to the lack or kick when the boost kicks in. Took me a while to get accustomed to a linear torque curve. The one night, I was coming home and drove it like i stole it, red line each gear and boy boy, i now understand why this car would be great on the track. I would not trade this car for anything right now. We have a lot of congestion on our streets, so the low end torque makes driveability so much more fun on our roads. And oh lets not forget, the car is a lot better looking than the STI!

You got Z's in Italy?
When I go to Sicily all I see are compacts everywhere. Nothing with any style. I wouldnt drive anything nice there anyway cuz it will get smashed. Not sure how Napoli is.
