Actually, looks is the last thing I look for in a car, and yes I love speed. If you don't love speed, why did you get a Z. I bought it because I love speed and cornering hard. And yea the Z is definately a looker. I got one because of rwd, low-end torque, and I got a unbelievable deal on it. I may not race it on the street, but for everyday driving, I like fast acceleration. You ever driven a 4cylinder camry? No torque. The Z has tons of low-end torque so the means fast acceleration when your under the 3k mark.

Moreover, you should've been more patient and saved up for the new Ferrari F430 if you're looking for some massive acceleration and cornering.

i think its a generational thing; i don't think you'll find many people over 35 who like those little box cars.
like pants hanging below the azz, those cars are for kids; it requires a little more time on this planet to develop good taste. jmo.

I like 05 GTO. I'll test drive one, once I can compare it to the upcoming Dodge Charger (erm, SRT-8 Charger). If either car can match my current Z's accel, whoop -- I'll be happy to get one. But which one... Decisions, decisions...

Agreed. I was able to better a couple of well driven STIs in Solo2 this year.

I think the 350z/STI are close enough in the twistys that it's down to the driver.
