Maybe I just bought 3 good domestics and 1 decent one, and 1 horrible import, maybe not.

i'm sorry to hear about ur problems with the infiniti, as well congratulations on the Z06 purchase. While i still believe that Japanese cars have better reliability than domestics it still all comes down to the luck. i have had the opposite experience of you in my family. dodge sprint, dodge neon, and while the sprint was okay, the neon was horrendous. My recently replaced subaru forester on the other hand was pretty much bulletproof in all aspects. Everything just worked and currently i have no problem with my Z, and i still see more old japanese cars than i do old american cars (old civic hatchbacks, corollas, etc.

Two different cars. The Challenger is just for straight lines, while the Z is a better balance of straight and turns, albeit not as fast in the straight. If you did not like the G37 you might not like the Z either. How much did they ding you for the G37 trade in for the Challenger? This may indicate your approximate Challenger trade in loss.
