Hey everyone - my first post. I do not own but I have been shopping for a 370Z for quite some time and really want to get an opinion from you all on something.

I know that typically people who purchase cars like these do so with the intention of driving them pretty hard (I know I will). Do you guys have any experience with buying a used Z only to have it fall apart from the previous owner riding it too hard? Are the Carfax reports all that reliable for determining the current state of the vehicle?

Any particular model year best for used versions? I.e. - would a 2009 with 8K miles be better than a 2011 with 30K miles?

I know the advantages of buying them new from a quality perspective, but want to get my hands on one of these for as little as possible.

Any input is appreciated. Thanks so much!
