Default Turned 15K on my Z

Just some general comments, 2012 Coupe with sports package
In just 9 months I have put 15K on my Z, I drive a lot and enjoy driving the Z. It runs great, in that time I am average 24.92 mpg.
The right rear tired has been repair twice for nails, thank you Tire Discounters, great repair and good price free.
All servicing is done by Nissan dealership, I bought all the service/warranty packages, figure it would be easier (Capital One Nissan in Atlanta has done great service for me)

Just got done this weekend in this heat in driving from Ft Bragg, NC to Atlanta and back. Oil temp was running at 200-210, but it was in the upper 90's low 100's.

I have done 3 autocross in it, and quite please on how it runs against other similar cars.

Current tires look as if they have 1/2 there tread left.

Overall very pleased.

Only minus are:
since I did purchase the touring package, wished the base came with blue tooth.
Seats as I have read other places and mentioned, get a little uncomfortable. (I am 6' 3" 220 pounds), so I am planning on replacing them in the next several months.

Dealership where I bought it sucks big time and Nissan has not been very helpful with my complaint against them.

Modifications
None currently
I would upgrade the shocks/struts if I Autocross more
Planned
Seats / Nismo rear spoiler (thinking on this, since its not made in black cherry)

And today of all things, got hail damage on the car, about 20 dents....

I thank all for there comments on all subjects and posts, I find them all very helpful.

I'm closing in on 13K and I'm glad to see no problems for you.

Remember the most dealers are owned separate from the Nissan Corp. so is not too much they can do unless has to do with manufacture but not service.

For service complaints use BBB or find another dealer.

Sorry about the hail but your insurance should cover that, probably the Paintless process can get most of them out without the nedd for body work. GL.
