And maybe you didn't know but the base model z has the worst oversteer ever, it's borderline dangerous.. You need to spend like 1500 right off the bat for tires
Not that I'm agreeing ... but even if I were, this are things that should have been extremely obvious in the test drive. Not sure how you ended up driving off the lot with the "worst 6mt in the business" or oversteer that's so bad it's borderline dangerous. These weren't issues that crept up on you after 6 months or a year like many people are discussing here.

obviously wasnt on his mind when he test drove the car seeing as he has already established in a different thread that looks were one of the main reasons he bought the car, that right there pretty much sums it up

likely troll is trolling I would gather... he is so clueless that I bet he doesn't even own a Z

he's trolling. the base Z has some dynamic issues, but it certainly isn't oversteer

I don't regret buying the Z. I've met so many cool people from this forum and made a lot of really good friends. When I first bought my Z, it was pretty much just for looks. Over the past 2 years I've really gotten into the whole car/modding/racing scene and it's gone from a mild interest to pretty much an addiction. I didn't know much about cars when I first bought the Z, but if I had the knowledge 2 years ago that I have now I probably would not have gotten it.

Ya maybe the new Z will sway me into another Nissan, I highly doubt it but that's the beauty of leasing ,i can get out of a car instead of financing trying to sell it hoping the resale value will be high and can actually find a buyer.

I agree completely!
I'd do it again to meet the people I have met on the forum, not so much for the car though
