Do you sell our email addresses to other companies

mkaresh

Absolutely not. Sorry for the delayed response--didn't have automatic notification on.

It's looking like the August results will include the 2003, but asterisked for marginal sample size.

I'd like to get rid of the asterisk, if not in August then the next time, in November.

If you've signed up to participate but haven't yet responded to the survey (via a link in the email you received), please do. And if you haven't signed up yet, I hope you'll consider doing so. I'd really like to have these results in August.

The result for the 2003 will be released in a week or so.

A result for the 2004 is likely in November.

For these and more recent model years we need more participants to provide solid results.

I signed up my 05, how many more of those do you need?

mkaresh

We now have the bare minimum for the 2005s. But, since not everyone will actually respond to the survey, more participants are needed.

The August results had an initial result for the 2003--at just under one repair trip per car per year, it's close to the average. But the sample size wasn't to the minimum--for the above reason--so that result is asterisked and only visible to members on the site itself.

I'd like to have full results for all model years, but that's a matter of how many owners sign up and participate.

The full set of results:

Total number of 350Zs signed up is now 152. A very good start, but more remain needed. The 2004 and 2005 remain right at the minimum, and the 2006 and 2007 are each just seven owners short of the minimum.

signed up the 04..keep them coming this way if somethings wrong we can get a better idea of what it is perhaps!

We'll have a result for the 2003 in a couple of weeks. Right now we're a single response short of the number needed for a full result. At least the 2004 and maybe the 2005 should be in the next update, in February.

A few more owners per model year would certainly help.

In the latest results, the 2003 Nissan 350Z had a repair rate of 60 successful repair trips per 100 cars per year, which is better than average for a 2003.

With more participants, we could provide more precise results, and include additional model years. Very close to the minimum for the 2004 and 2005.

Just need a few more participants to also include the 2006 and 2007 in the survey. Additional participants would also be very helpful for other model years.

We're just over the minimum sample size with the 2004 and 2005, and only three or four owners short of the minimum with the 2006 and 2007. So additional participants would be very helpful.

Thanks, guys, I really appreciate it. At the rate people are signing up lately we should have some solid numbers to post here for the Z in May.

The 2006 and 2007 are each still two owners short of the minimum.
