Angry I feel sad for whom ever getting this Z in CA

this is from celica forum:
Oh man when i drove up to the lot today and saw a silver 350z i was drooling. I couldnt wait to hop into the thing and drive it. My friend works at the dealership and so he got me hooked up to test drive the thing. Right as i steped through the driver side door and sat inside i melted in the seats. The leather interior is a must in the car, its so nice. I love the way you fit into the car, a little snug but not too bad. I told my friend that i wanted to see the full potential of the car and he told me to rip into it. So we drove slowly out of the lot so his manager would be happy and went to one of the back roads where I live. No cars and No cops. I reved the car up to 6k rpms and launched. The back tires spun for a little bit and the rear moves just a little, if you drive a rwd you would know what i mean. Anyways i launched and right when the tires catch your head flies back. Nice torque in the car and man does it fly. Redlined all through first, POWERSHIFTED into second and heard the tires chirp, redlined all the way up through second and I powershifted again into third. I must say that this car is very very fast stock. I slowed down after I shifted into fourth, wouldnt want to do break the car when it was just released. I would hate to drive it back broken. So I calmed down and let my fat adrenaline rush slow down before i drove back to the dealership. I must say that this is one sweet ride. My dad actually wants to get one. He wants to either get an Honda S2000, or the Nissan 350z. What do you guys think he should get??? Personally I liked the nissan 350z. It is one awesome car.
This Z is from the dealer!! That means it is NOT breaked in!! I feel sad who ever is going to get this car (in California)

This is why you don't want a Z with more than a few miles on it, cause you know they were really hard miles by people who don't give a crap about the car.

Thumbs down

I call ********. Total f*cking ********. First, it's from a Celica forum. Probably some kid making **** up. Second, I don't believe for one minute that you launch at 6K in the Z that redlines at 6,600 RPM. You can do that in a Civic Si, you can do that in a Celica GT-S, but in a Z with 274 lb. ft. of torque? Please.

Ditto. I'm likewise calling ********.
Sounds like someone has a vivid imagination at the Celica forum. (or perhaps just a good case of torque envy).

DJK,

We don't need those kind of comments. If you dislike a make, figure out a better, less offensive manner to express it.

i thought the z had a rev limiter no? if so how did he "redline all through first..." tell him to buy an s2000. he's not worthy.

It launches pretty nice from 4500, and got a nice chirp (about 10 feet) going into second.......

I currently drive a 2000 V6 Mustang, and while the car is stopped you can't rev it past 4000 RPMs...I don't know about other cars though.
