I'm interested in the quality of the gearbox. The 350Z auto 'manumatic' mode is terrible. At wide open throttle, one clicks the upshift only to wait almost a full second.

The new Nissan Altima has the same mode, but the upshifts & downshifts are fairly instantaneous. The car will up & downshift on its own, however.

If the 370Z has a TRUE manual paddle shifter selected as opposed to the assisted manual, I may consider that.

Anyone have any more information?
