Having a car in that range and one higher I can tell you things happen with all makes of cars. Paying a lot for a car doesn't make it better...........just makes it hurt more when things do go wrong............

I have had good experiences with Nissan/Datsun over the years but I was dissapointed in the oil temps and the brakes on the Z. My G37 was a great car with no issues at all during my ownership. That being said I normally don't own anything other than my Jeeps for more than a couple of years. That comment about Infiniti having such a low intitial customer satisfaction rating I would love to see as the last I saw it was very high when I bought my 2011 IPL. I knew what I was getting into with the Z, and it didn't take long till I realized that even off the track an oil cooler was needed. Having the dealership try to charge me $125 a wheel to turn my rotors at less than 18K miles was a pisser since the brakes are a common problem. Took me a couple of hours and less than $50 to have the rotors turned. Anyway I loved the cars and will probably own another Nissan down the road. I owned my first Datsun in the early 80's and have owned a few Datsun/Nissans over the years.
