My previous car was an 05 Mustang with 209K miles on it, and I was putting 3-4K a month on my Z until it died 2 weeks ago. I own a car to drive it, not garage it. I always changed oil every 5K miles, whether I hit that mark in 2 weeks or 2 months.
Not to thread jack, but how did you end up toasting the Z?

I agree with all of the above, if you hit 5k change the oil. Most people report the car running smoother with synthetics too, I know I was excited to reach the 5k mark for that reason.
