Perfect time to familiarize yourself with the manual. Lots of time to read through before you get the car.

You are joking right?

...and they need that info right away because they just bought the car and are going to be putting 3700 miles on it before they get to a computer....

You mean like driving your car for 2000 miles before checking your oil??

Seriously the first reply was very friendly and helpful. The third response was a very kind and gentle reminder to use the search function. Its entirely possible that the OP has never used the forum and didn't know to search so its a completely valid point to make about using the search function especially when its done as politely as it was. I don't know what forums you're on but any sites that have half the traffic that the370Z does would rip you a new one for asking the question but that simply didn't happen here.

I'm not trying to rag on you but its disrepectful to the forum members (who for the most part help out when they can) for you to put them and the forum down.
