This is not a knock at you but I think most peoples problems stem from abuse and not properly knowing how to dirve a stick while abusing it.

you figure it is just a disproportionate number of people buying Z's that don't know how to drive, then? Especially considering the 350Z "seemed" to have similar issues.

Nissan had reported replacing ~3500 transmissions as of mid-2011, mostly in early 09s. You think all those people just didn't know how to drive? I feel like they wouldn't have covered that many if that was the case.
