350s are not all that man,
my boss`s girl has one,5 speed, i got to drive it COMPLETELY stock. it does as a lot of power, but pretty much all of it is the "feeling", if you kept looking at the tach it drops off really bad in higher rpms.

BUT, with just I/H/E, that ---- really opends up. it felt like a complete different car now .

Well the car was definately a stick Jeff but I think the guys poor driving had a lot to do with it, but it was suprising. Also it was cold here last night, the car runs great in the cold as you would expect.

350z's are slow, i walk them all the time on the street. teh fastest one i've seen run at the track pulled a 14.3 with a full exhaust, headers, and intake, and i've ran him on the street and walked him too, and my car isn't even fast.

I took one on a test drive, it seems to be geared for a city, with a lot of torque under 3k after that my old ZC CRX had a hair more on the top end. It seems the 6 speed acts like a stop gap measure to keep it in the lower rev bands.

Also for some reason it shifted like pooh the gearbox felt really mushy and it didnt like powershifts at all....neither did the salesman

Remember its got pretty much the same V6 engine as the Altima

exactly. My friend has a 350z for over a year now and he actually let me drive the car hard for the very first time. The thing i notice most about the car its really good torque. On the freeway I took my friends Trans Am so there not really all that slow if you know how to drive them. There not that bad of cars. But I doubt you would owned one Kain
