The problem is, and I've realized it with the Z, that you don't get the long and crazy revving you see in commercials and video games in real life. It lasts a second or two and all of a sudden you're at 45 or 60.

So how'd it feel driving a 458 and then immediately getting into a Z? Did the Z start to feel slow? Still exciting?

Of course you do. When you're pushing from 60mph to 150mph.

0-60 won't do it though. If our revs were long to 60? We'd be the FR-S
