Either way, I keep hearing nothing but good about the interior, which is my motivation to trade. Lots of complaint over the drive-line, though, regarding NVH.

How bad is it, really? Sucks compared to your Honda, or have you driven 'vettes/F-bodies/Mustangs, etc?

How bad is what? The accelaration? I haven't driven a modern vette, I've owned two camaro's as mentioned previously. I've driven a lot of muscle cars. I've also raced motorcycles for a few years and have ridden a bunch of them, including the new BMW on the race track. That's 180 rwhp in a 439lb package, so I definitely know what fast is. I find the 370z to be plenty fast for me, but I'm not looking to blow up every stop light. The car will light up the traction control in first and second gear with ease. Turn off the traction control and you can hang your *** out in the wind all day long. In a nut shell it's got enough power to have fun. Go test drive one and get on it a bit. There isn't any reason not to find out. You don't have to take it up to 7k to feel it out. Surely the salesman won't mind you reving to 5k in a couple of gears. That will show you what it has.
