Attracts a lot of attention, but mostly from men. Pros: sounds awesome on the highend, relatively quick, handles a little better than a stock mustang. Cons: Attracts unwanted attention, no switch to disable traction control (fortunately, power-braking to warm up tires for launch is still possible.) Overall, the 350Z, Crossfire, and the Miata are better rental upgrades. The 350Z is faster overall, the Crossfire is unique, gets wanted attention, and is moderately quick in a straight line and handles well but the open diff detracts, the Miata handles very well and the upped hp of the new models helps.
