I imagine this could happen every day every where on freeway No need to prove. 370z is a good power car for the money until the 86 hit the market with a different approach. The steering, balance chassis, handling, lightness, responsive, quick, and the stunning body lines design in pearl white look ... just too amazing for me

I can place the car with ease when driving in anger.

Im 5'5" with a 36" waist... not even with the seat all the way towards the bottom did my knees evade the underside of the dash... in the m3 I have so much room I can put one leg over the other...

You should get some new knees, I'm 6"1 and have no issues sitting in the car.

They need to redisign the car, as it's the only car I have that issue in... besides... Ford reliability sucks

Agreed. I almost delved into Ford stock 3 years ago when they tanked. Was sooooo cheap and they DIDN'T take on government loans! Now I regret not doing so.

the review says that the 370 is a manual...but I wonder have they put the third pedal back in? because last I checked the 370 had the rev matching bs, no clutch "Manual" that is really a drive by wire gear suggestor.

The Synchrorev is a manual transmission. Just has the plates touching a bit earlier so no rev matching is required. But it's still a proper manual. http://www.caranddriver.com/features...atch-explained

^ AND the automatic rev-matching feature can be turned off, so you can do it yourself.

They never took the third pedal out. The Synchro Rev Match system was just a throttle tune that would hold the motor at the rpm for whatever gear you shift into. You still had to use the clutch and row the box yourself. If you turned it off, it operated no differently than the manual in your BRZ or my Mustang.

I never appreciated that rev-matching bs. Well, let's be fair, when I first tried it on my test drive, I thought wow, that's pretty crazy. But after that, the novelty wears off very quickly. You press a button and you got the heel-toe mastered by the car. How much is it to add this feature? like 2-3 grand in the sports model? Jesus, talk about more money than skill... That or it's the societal way of saying, I'm too lazy to do it myself.

[DeeezNuuuts83]

I don't think it costs THAT much, it's the package that it's bundled with that costs that much, from what I remember.
