Default 370z clutch feel

hey all, off the bat, I searched for clutch feel and clutch in the search and got a little info, but wanted to ask anyway.

I'm looking at buying a new car around December, and the 370z, among a few others, is on the list. I've always had a Z, so of course I was inclined to want the 370, but I have to say, the test drive totally killed it for me. I absolutely loathe the clutch. It felt like an on/off switch with a massive spring or something (which I saw in the search can be removed?) snapping it up making for shifts very unsmooth. It just killed the drive for me. I loved the power and the feel was good, though.

SO, is this something that will break in over time? The dealer (union city, didn't really like the dealership, the salesman was way too pushy, but friendly) only had a touring no sport, and a convertible, with the touring being the only stick. What I want is the base+sport.

I was just curious if there's something that would improve the smoothness of the clutch in/out or if it was just the car being new (4 miles!) that made it so....touchy.. Thanks guys!
