Not to offend anyone but I would be paranoid if a 400lb man or woman wanted in my Z. The seats aren't excatly meant to house someone of that size and as such the side bolsters could take damage. Now mind you in a quick 5min drive from the entrane to the garage nothing would probably happen but I could see why OP would be concerned. Not to mention if he has a cigarette in his hand. Who knows if he will put it out before driving. Even if he does that **** lingers and can smell up the car. My step dad is 6'5 and 380lbs. I don't let him anywhere near my Z. Then again, I don't use dealers unless absolutely necesary. Especially for something as simple as an oil change. Do it yourself, it takes less than 30min.

Don't be silly Ken...it was in the '60s that I put the 8 Track in my '55 Chevy. It was in the '50s when I needed to replace the running boards on my '40 Nash. Man that car ran great! Ahhhhh, the good ole days!
