My first post. hahaha. Bought a 2012 Sport Touring 7AT Roadster a few weeks ago. Traded in a 2005 Audi TT with an APR level 1 tune. Prior to the Audi I had a 2007 RX8 6 spd.
So yeah, I'm in love with this car. To me it's like a supercar. I was going to buy a Boxster but I've wanted a Z since 1992 so I went for it.
I'm not in love with the delayed throttle response and seemingly long pedal travel though neither is a big deal. I *thought* it was just me when I test drove it, but then I read the Jalopnik review and a few posts here and realized the car is "just like that".
I'm going to order the sprintbooster tonight. It sounds like that thing will fix it. I'm a little concerned it'll be too twitchy (for parking and such). Also, it seems like the car shifts much faster in both auto and manual mode when I'm at WOT. Like almost DSG fast (not quite though). Otherwise, it can be kinda slowish. Bhandy- does this thing really make all of the shifts quicker? I understand it's just upping the throttle voltage and nothing more, but if giving the car more gas, faster actually increases the shift speed I'll be so happy. Not to mention that 1 second delay when I step on it...
