Don't worry...Lottsa guys here have strong "opinions" and have never owned the cars being discussed.

My buddy with an '06 vette and another with an '05 with 36K on it had no issues either...Just sayin..

My "opinion" wasnt a strong or abrasive one, just saying that no matter what car youre talking about 14k miles isnt a significantly long enough time to say it was built with quality. Im not saying your argument is wrong, Im saying that piece of evidence supporting it was weak. That being said, others have presented better evidence supporting both sides which boils down to my strong argument: that the most influential factor on any cars longevity is how the owner treats it.

I wasn't aiming that at you in particular. There are tons of Keyboard experts here that have weighed in with no experience other than what they've read on the internet..

I'd be happy to discuss any of the 57 cars I've owned, plus another 25 Honda Company cars..Major issues on all of them I can count on one hand, and yes I take good care of my cars....

LOL....I'd have to do some serious memory refreshes to answer that, but off the top of my head, from a general level of satisfaction with the car, it's somewhere in the top 10...

You can make the Z faster, you can't make the Vette a better overall car.

Think some of you forgot you could get a 2002 camaro z28 for 19,000. I bought my SS for 24,000 and my used 2001 ws6 with 5k for 20,000. The f-body's are one of the best bang for the buck cars around and can mod them cheap too. The camaro was in the 12's with just a CAI. My 09 370 was 39,000 and the only mod that gives this car any balls is forced induction. Oh..and my z runs hot..the paint is three different shades of white and if you touch the plastic it scratches.
