Did the start of the sluggishness coincide with you filling the car up with fuel?
When was the last time it was serviced?

Hot weather ?

Sounds odd but the enclosed engine bay of an F/TF ( where the air intake lives ) is a very warm place and the extra few degrees lately wont help. Intake air that is already at high temp will dull the performance and Im sure I can feel it on my TF especially in traffic when there is less air movement from under the car.

Of course I may just be talking out my arse ..
