I saw it had a "auto-blipper" in the manual gearbox, basically it revved the engine a bit when you downshifted and were taking your foot of the clutch. That turned me off it, part of the fun of driving a manual is to be able to perfectly blip it into a lower gear.

I have the same problems with the new Z as the old, looks fat to me, and it may have a good bit power more than the Boxster but it 300 pounds heavier, so it needs the extra grunt.

Boxster and the Z4 are still my favorites in the range as far the overall quality and performance, even with the higher price tag.
