Uh... no i didn't. It's cause I just recently bought a 2010 Z this month (hence the recent join date) and did some research if I needed to wait until 2011, thats when I found out about the hybrid and found this post. Thanks for assuming though. I am too busy with career and family to do what you implied "new people do" of filtering through old posts.
No offense, but so f'n what if this thread is old..hybrid Zs are going to be more of a topic the closer we get to its release date. So expect this discussion to get more feedback. I get that old news can be irritating to regulars here, but if a thread needed to be revived, isn't this topic appropriate since hybrids are just around the corner? How about just be courteous, stop assuming, allow new members to actively participate in conversation and stop being so territorial, this isnt high school.
Okay, so I just did a bit of research and found, for the automatic that its going to have "the arrangement employing two clutches to take the place of the torque converter for a seven-speed auto transmission allowing electic power to run only at the lower speeds". Okay, im not too familiar with hybrids, but this makes sense...I guess its not so bad afterall. What it boils down to is if the price of the lithium battery is worth the small increase in performance. Cause really, I love to go fast sometimes, but...400hp just seems overkill if you ask me.
