Don't get me wrong I love the tech in new sports cars but I think the "roughness" is what I truly enjoy about driving the Z. The most annoying nanny on this car is the single setting VDC but you can turn that off.

We live in a day of high hp cars with fast 0-60 times that are full of electronic nannies. Heck a lot of sedans can pace or beat the Z in the straight line nowadays. But for the very few such as ourselves that care about the overall driving experience and not just stats on paper, the Z STILL fits the bill even 8 years after it was introduced. Who would've thought that a car with 332hp would be considered "slow" or "underpowered" but that's the market right now. Should be interesting to see how high the hp wars go.

Seems like the older I get, the less I care about the newer cars and the more I want a classic.
