today they have gone. It will be my next car (not before 1 year @ least, unfortunately :cry: :cry: :cry: )
I drove for about 30 minutes a japanese 350Z from an importer in langtree. It was even an automatic (tiptronic), but torque wise you had PLENTY as soon as you dared to floor it.
Excellent stability (even without the esp having to kick in, and trying to make it lol). The acceleration is so smooth and omogeneous that you don't even realise that you are going VERY fast, until you look @ the tacho....
The brakes (not the brembo ones that will be fitted as standard in the uk ones) seemed to have plenty of stopping power.
It was a sunset orange with alezan orange (more beige in my opinion) leather interior.
All in all I have to say that is a great car!

Thanks to steve @ http://www.itsafastworld.co.uk, for being so friendly and helpful!

If you guys can't be bothered with a manual one, give this one a thought!
