Congrats on the new Boss. I don't think you will miss the lightness depending on your trim level. In terms of weight the Boss will just be like the Z with a passenger. Those Boss' are very light on their feet.

Thanks for the kind words. I'll be posting some pics tomorrow. I picked up the car today and heres some of the impressions... I'll start with the ugly, the interior is pretty cheap looking, no where near the z. The handling is nice for it's size, but the steering isn't as sensitive or responsive as the z. However I have the factory damper setting which is two, I will adjust it to 4 once the car is broken in. Now on to the good stuff... The torque is everywhere!!! The engine loves to rev, now only it revs way faster than the z, it's a lot smoother down low. The only complain I have towards the driver train is the clutch, it's way too soft. I had the side cutout' baffles removed, so the car sounds insanely good. The sound plus the comp orange really grabs a lot of attentions.

People who cares about interior... This isn't a car for you. But if you are looking for a performance bargain this is definitely the car to have. Pics to follow soon!
