Lots of wrecked Z's...

most guys are hitting stuff with the front end of the car. I imagine it's a lot of understeering and not being able to get enough weight back on the front wheels.

A lot of people also spin them out because they turn VDC off and have no clue how to drive.

Remember, the Z is an inexpensive car and there are a lot of young and inexperienced owners... it's bound to happen.

also true. The geico numbers that I saw seemed to indicate that something like 75% of single car accidents in the 370z were front end collisions though...they justified the RBA by pointing out increased repair cost for front end damage to jack up rates without demonstrating the actual number of accidents was rising.
