I've spoken to several people who have recently gotten a 350Z who also own an LS1, and they agree with everything i've said. Great handling car, but severely lacks the torque they are used to.

Well, yeah what did they expect?
They did realize they were buying an import that is made to compete in other ways then low end power.
If they didn't I guess they should be disappointed, but only due to their own ignorance. If they did realize that then they got what they paid for and should be happy w/ it.
That of course means 0-60 isn't every thing but don't say that the 350z is slow in the straight line. It just doesn't improve all that much on the 300zx TT (even though it is prob. more reliable, being N/A). And in straight line I don't see it being too far behind a LS1 to be disappointed in. Especially considering the LS1 is made for straight line speed (V8, high Torque, 300+ hp, etc..) and the Z (V6, broad powerband, 287hp, etc..) isn't.
