I AutoX... and plan on road coursing this spring. Should I feel special? =P I get what you're saying... but that still doesn't make me enjoy my Z any less; or watching people get their panties all in a twist when I mention the word "slicktop." I never debated the base model thing; it's true... and it's funny.
Sacrificing t-tops on a daily basis isn't something I lose sleep about either. =)
