I thought the 370z's clutch was one of the strangest I've tried. When lifting your foot off the clutch pedal, it feels like the spring is stronger in the last 1-2" travel, almost launching your foot off the pedal at the end. Never felt anything like that before.

I can't really complain about the FR-S/BRZ clutch pedal, except for the high engagement point and soft spring.
i just drove my other friend's 370z..i know what youre talking about. it really was a pain the butt to drive. i could NEVER see myself getting one of those as a daily drive. not fun and man is it scary changing lanes in that thing!
