Highs: Sports-car hustle, sports-car reflexes, sports-car brakes, racing-style seats.

Lows: Reluctant shifting, rearview-inhibiting wing, racing-style seats.

lol how can that be a high and a low?

It's an old review. You should read the 04 reviews. I don't remember which magzine but it was picked as a track star amongst the lotus, viper, and ferrari. The one you posted was a good review and in that same issue was the cover story, "weapons of mass distraction" if I remember right. When you flip back a few pages the 350z was number one in the showdown of the audiTT, mustang mach1, 350z, and s2000. If you ripped the specs page of all of those vehicles and the specs page of the srt in that review you would see that only the 2nd place mach1 barely edged out the srt in the 1/4 mile but the srt-4 nearly matched the 350z. In some cases only a few feet or 10nths of a sec difference. It's what really helped me decide to get the srt. Anyone else read that issue?

Both. In some ways I agree with what they say and others I don't.

Well I was just curious as to what they were.. I figured there would be disagreements..

Its easy for the racing seats to be both.. they are good.. cuz well.. they are racing seats.. feel good(for awhile) look good.. but if u dont have the right body.. i bet they become a pain after a time.

I like the support the seats give, but you gotta get used to climbing in and out of them (literally)...
