Don't worry two schools of thought. If its a DD your fine..
imho cars are made to be driven. the Z is not a car that will gain any value through the years with low mileage. unless you plan on keeping it for 20 years
you have already taken the hit enjoy it. my 09 is at 35,000 and it great shape. if i tried to trade today with a low mileage z i bet it wouldn't bring more than an extra grand in trade in value... jmo

I agree on everything you said. I usually keep all my rides with low miles except for a daily beater. That has always worked well for me when it comes time to sell off a car. I have always sold/ priced my cars at or in the range of dealer retail than pricing for sale buy owner.

Example: I have a 2000 Prelude Vtech that has around 50700 miles on the car. I have 4 people interested in it right now. They are just waiting for me to say I am selling it. They alreay know the car will not be priced in the For sell by owner Edmonds online price range. Their is always a buyer willing to pay retail to an individual if the car is extra clean and low mile. Why let the dealer make the easy money on extra clean rides.
