Heck why don't you just buy both and be even happier? BTW I think you have upto 72 hours to return it if you don't want it.

It also depends what gear you are in.


ALSO, as I have said, the 350z is loaded with a LOT of torque even in the low down range. lol

Yep, the 350Z and G35C have nearly max torque from very low in the RPM range. This has, in fact, been the cause of some folks comments that the car feels 'lazy' or lacks power, when in fact it is hammering right along. Many cars (like the Si) have a boost in torque on the RPM curve that the driver feels as a surge of acceleration. The Z and G35C pull hard from very low and do not have that feeling of surge as the RPMs mount.

(Edit: because I could not read what I wrote...heh.)
