Paint chips !

Face it, this 370Z is an awesome car, but once again: you get what you pay for. When my friend got his 1993 RX7 brand new from the dealership, it was worse than just paint chips, excess oil consumption (a quart every 2 weeks), trim parts i.e. stereo knobs literally breaking off, his rear wheel (the stock 5 spoke) even cracked from the lug nut hole to a spoke when we took it to the drag strip. He didn't own that car much longer, he sold it.

I'm just mentioning this because I think the 370 is akin to the FD3S, especially the sport-package. It's delicate in many areas...hopefully not the areas that count i.e. motor/tranny/suspension/brakes/electrical etc.
