ding ding ding. thats what got me. that and a combination of poor quality tires.
I was driving very cautiously (honestly I really was) and hit standing water.
never never buy cheaper tires.
The Z handles phenomenally well in the wet, IMO. On numerous occasions, I have driven at 75mph on the highway in torrential rain without the car acting unpredictably. I just never pretend to be Ayrton Senna; no sudden moves and no acceleration through a turn or lane change.
after reading the forums here i drive like a 90 year old grandma and not those ones who drive 90mph on the free way cuz they know they are gonna die any ways and dont care about tickets, im talking the senile ones who dont realize they are going 30mph in the 65mph highway hehe.
i read so many dam scarey storys of loss of traction that im afraid of the rain.

Love going to big open parking lots when its raining. Saves me my tires when I want to do some drifting.
Car drives great with the VDC on. It also helps if you dont gun it in the turn.
