I also have a second older car that is a daily driver which will help keep the miles down on the Z.
Interesting. I usually buy in the last, or next to last production year of a particular model because by then all the bugs are worked out and the platform has fully evolved.

Have you found yourself playing "guinea pig" any, or has your plan been perfect so far? I know 1 person is a very small sample size and more based on luck.

Interesting to see your thoughts compared to mine. Makes the world go round!
