2009 Stock Z

USINC97 · 12-31-2012, 09:27 AM

Guys, the "Z" is a weekender. Never rolls in rain or snow. Tried that the 1st winter, found out it likes to pretend it is a snow plow. The car stays in a heated/AC garage.

Never had any intensions to make any modifications. We like it the way it is. As for the exhaust, I like em quiet. See me before you hear me.

With the changes that are being made to the "Z" every year, believe that the stock 09 370 coupe (with MT) will be a desired "gotta have one" in the future. We should be able to get our original investiment plus.

Why the 09 mt over any other z? I mean won't they all appreciate the same?

A new z will just make your car worth less and the only way you will sell it for the price you want is finding a niche car market buyer.

Cars are a lousy investment to try to make money on.

I purchased my 370 in April of '09 - it's my DD and I've almost got 25K miles on it. The only problems I've had were the rear hatch spring issue and defective fuel level sending units. No problems in the last couple of years.

Just my opinion. I double checked the mileage on it. Actual, it's 5054.

OP: Did you pull the steering lock fuse?

Um... What?

I don't know man. I'm the type of person who would put 100k on a Ferrari. Fun cars are fun to drive, not just look at.

To each his own. Mt Tam - No I will be ordering the bypass kit and will put in in later this month.
