Yeah... my z is one of the most reliable cars I've ever owned. For the performance and what i pay in maintenance... Awesome. Thus far, I've yet to own an unreliable Nissan. Knock on wood.

My 2006 350Z has never had a non-wear problem. Brakes, tires, and oil are about the only things I've spent money on. I've never had another car that went almost 7 years w/o any problem. You'd almost thing it was made in 2004 1/2!

Well good for you.

Ha. Just kidding. I had the clutch cylinder fail on me when I was four hours from home (not my fault). I also had the SLU fail on me outside of a frickin' KFC. (I say this is 50/50 my fault. 50% Nissan's fault for a crap unit, 50% mine for knowing about it and uh, doing nothing.) So, all regular '09 problems. Nothing out of the ordinary though. Other than that it's been reliable.
