The 7 speed paddle shifter shifts quite well, and is one of the best Automatics I have driven. The handling is insanely good as well. I sing high praises for that car, and would own one, but I have to take more than 2 people in my car.

Fortunately I can drive one whenever I want..

Since when is 370z faster than the evo?
from road & track stats:
370z 0-60 = 5.2 1/4 = 13.7
evo 0-60 = 4.9 1/4 = 13.6

the 370z traps considerably higher in the 1/4 mile than the Evo 9 or 10, especially the automatic 370z's. IIRC a mag got a freakin' 108mph trap speed for the 7spd auto 370z. they're no slouch especially from a roll, where aero (huge advantage for the Z) and gearing play a bigger role than the AWD launch for the Evo that gives it those nice 0-60 and 1/4 ET times.

of course, getting any Evo to trap 110mph is a few hundred bucks away, but stock for stock the 370 is not to be taken lightly...it is an awesome performer.

yeah, trap speed tells a whole other story than 1/4 times, I kinda like the new Z

From a dig the Evo will win. Rolling start, especially at speed the 370z will pull away. So I guess its a matter of when. I do know from "at speed" my GFs stock 370z will pull from my stock Evo.

But I guess its all who you are gonna listen to. R&T is an american car mag...I rarely trust those these days. Usually the British mags are far more truthful, with much better tests. However I dont even need a mag. I can go out and test it quite easily....
