Ouch. I run the RP hps as well. Pricy stuff.
 
Couldn't take a decent pic, but finally:
'13 Touring+Sport Manual

Loving it. Only annoying aspects are that the clutch is vague+grabby, throttle could use more response. Shows on hills where you hope no one is ahead or behind you because you're literally left to pick launch or bust.

While I knew manual for DD was going to add some hassle, there was a bit of a shock to find how bad people can really drive. Stop-go on hills is just...what the ****.

I quickly became generous as hell with spacing.

I've always had a thing for those cars...

The new engine is pretty damn strong, but I think every Z enthusiast wishes the torque number would be higher and come on sooner...

I always give thumbs up to Z owners :)

Yeah. First two gears have a nice pull but that's P/W more than torque at work. And then first is pretty short so that 1-2 shift is a bit laggy if you're trying to be smooth.

Basically I was shopping this, a Genesis 3.8R (those run for considerably less it seems), and then of course a Camaro or Challenger. Last 2 were tempting because for the money I could've had a V8. Z just hit me most sentimentally despite arguably being the most outdated and impractical at this point. Wanted one when it debuted but I just started college so I guess it came full circle albeit 8 years after.

If I would have bought a 2 seater, I would have went with an LS3 Vette (2009+)...
