Default 48hrs of ownership, got pulled over already

Coming from my truck, this car is difficult to drive slowly. The wind noise is less, it takes much less pedal effort to accelerate, and since it's so much more stable it feels slower. I don't even realise that I'm accelerating until I look at the speedo and see that I'm 20 over or whatever the case is. Backroads can be driven with ease now and it just sticks and goes like a slot car. What a blast! I don't even have a desire to modify it yet.

if your coming form a non-sports car especially a truck or SUV the power is a bit overwhelming. people that drive my car and arent used to it always say they feel like theyre going 20-30mph slower than they actually are since its so stable. It eventually wares off and you get used to it, but then you just gotta drive around in a normal car/truck and you realize again how awesome the Z is. Or yuo just start modding the f*ck out of it

Hehe, 350's, ticket collectors. But you've been around ages, you already know that.
