Default About my Z.... its only 3062lbs.... but theres more.....

I have yet to post since ive driven the car since i cant stop. I have a base model, and i found out my car was the 283rd car made. It weighs only 3062lbs, so it is nearly as light as some of those lighter sports cars. OK, so when i saw people writing that every one was going to crazzy, i beelived it, but didnt really get it. Seriously, i cant explain how many people have got out of there cars, backed up, rolled down the windows, thumbs up, questions etc..... and ive only have the car 49hrs!!
The handling is superb, the clutch is extremly tight, its the second best ive ever felt, second only to the S2000. But i think part of it is engine charecteristics, which make the S2000 a little smoother. But this car is still amazing. Ive had none of the problems people have posted. The cloth seats are amazing, and im actually rethinking getting the leather put in. The stereo is fine, nothing speacial.
Looks, i cant tell you how much nicer Silverstone is than anyother color ive seen (ive yet to see blue, or redline, both of which are probobly great) But silverstone kills black and white, and beats Crome Silver by a bit. The car looks amazing, and people stare at it all day. The inside is amazing, everything placed great (except cup holders, but who cares)
When the gas attendant who fulled up my car asked me how much i had paid i said around 27k. Hes like nooooo, this looks like a Ferrari, it cannot be. I said ya, its true, and he woudlnt beleive me,


Experience on the way home from Conn (to Long Island) I saw my first Ferrari 360 Modena Spider on the road ever going more than a mile an hour. Now that car kiiiiiiiiillllls this one, it is sooo mean looking, and just flew past me, i wasnt about to race a car with only 22 miles on mine.
Looks compared to TT, Boxter, Corvette, 330Ci, Z3. Its not even alittle nicer, its rediculously nicer. I love all of those cars, but this is so futuristic and awsome looking.....

Ive got 250 miles in 2 days, and should be done with the 1400 in another 2 weeks or so...... I shall post again when i get my tints, red brakes and xenons in. Ill get pictures once i get a digi cam.

Untill next time........ Josh

p.s. I use the digital speedometer the whole time, its frickin awsome@!!!!

when you break it in some more you need to tell about how it launches. Do the wheels spin (with lack of LSD), or does it still "hook up"???
