so true. It is really a catch 22-- the engine feels flat when you're on it, but the power delivery is super smooth and the torque curve is so flat it is almost impossible to believe it is from a production car...but you loose the "thrown in your seat feel" many are used to with high peak power cars that have a sudden power engagement.

I'd rather have the smooth power delivery of the VQ37 any day, but it is not for everyone.
