I didn't even get CLOSE to pushing her to the limit (the Z... not my wife). The VDC light flickered now and then, and I probably only got over 5k RPM a dozen times or so. But, the drive was like being on a thrill ride at an amusement park. SO FUN!!!
Now you have me wanting to go out and hit up Germantown. I'm still getting used to the 6-speed though. I've been a lazy auto guy for too long.
