Buy it, you wont regret it.

OP - what is your budget? I have THOROUGHLY researched the market before I bought mine. Sometimes, I would put no distance for limits just to see what was out there.

Are you willing to drive to get your car? I drove 4 hours to pick mine up.

Oh, one other small problem, you will be spending more on gas than your current toaster.

my 2009 base:

Steering wheel lock (recall)
Hot oil (common)

2012 Loaded Z-R

None

Bshields22 · 05-07-2015, 03:49 PM

1 more thing

my oil doesnt seem to run as hot as it did in the 2009. I know nissan installed some sort of "oil cooler" for 2012 and up. seems to work ok. 1 track day in the winter and it ran fine. no oil cooler.

And no i didnt drive it like a grandma on the track lol

The Z shouldn't give you any major problems. I firmly believe it is a very reliable sports car overall. Engine is rock solid and there's no issue with transmission. CSC will eventually fail if you push the Z a lot (applies to only manual). AT is a solid daily.
