If your arms are long enough to reach the 4 rear bolts of the plastic cover to remove it, and you buy a shallow oil drain pan, you can change the oil on this car without lifting it at all. I've already done it once this way in my garage: http://www.the370z.com/members-370z-...html#post68857

Note though that my car is still at stock suspension height. A lowered car might make this impossible.
