(2012 and up still run hot with stock oil coolers from what I hear.)
2) The gas tank has a real stupid issue where will get oil starvation (even when gas is a bit more than 3/4ths full) when you turn a bit hard to the right, making honda civics seem like Lamborghini next to my stalling Z. (I'm exaggerating for comedic effect here, don't bring out the butthurt)
2017's still have this issue.
You need to spend between $300-1000 to fix this issue. (Parts only)
Also it's not reading the gas tank very well.
3) sound system BLOWS. This varies depending on the user, but to have something decent people will be spending at least $300-500.
(Not asking a luxury system, but something that doesn't sound completely distorted when you put it on 22 volume level)
The reason why I bring this up is mostly so SOMEONE does something for future models. It's mind blowing that a company as legendary as Nissan doesn't address issues very well.
If you know any other issues worth mentioning, try to keep the numbering in order.

I don't track my 2014 Z, but I've been known to drive in a "spirited" fashion. I've never, ever, had a fuel starvation issue no matter how empty the gas tank.
My car does have an oil cooler and I've never had even the slightest concern for oil temps. I suspect very few ever would if there wasn't an oil temperature gauge right there on the dash where you can obsess over it.
As to sound system...that's entirely subjective. In a low-slung sports car with minimal sound dampening and the rear wheel is about 12 inches from you ears, to even speak of harmonic distortion is silly IMHO. I'm confident for the vast majority, the stock system, especially the Bose, is completely adequate. IMHO. YMMV, but you can't propose your view of the sound system as an absolute. It's especially suspect to complain about current models since you're driving a 2010.
