We have updated results for the 350Z and 370Z to include owner experiences through December 31, 2009. In terms of repair trips per 100 cars per year:
2009: 49
2007: 35
2006: 47
2005: 68
2004: 38
2003: 49
The 2005 and 2009 are about average, the others are better than average. Sample sizes small for all but the 2003.
A big thank you, once again, to this forum and everyone who has been helping. We'll have further updates in May and August.
With more participants, we could provide more precise information and cover all model years. we'd especially like to have a result for the new 370Z--but need more people.

Just enhanced the related repair history survey so that it can (optionally) be used as a personal car maintenance record.
As always, more participants would be helpful. Updated Car Reliability Survey results in May, with a preview for participants soon.

Thank you, I appreciate it.
Updated results in a few weeks.
We'll be covering every year of the 350Z, but aside from the 2003 the number of responses is too low for a full result.

Results based on more than 25 responses are viewable by all visitors. All reliability stats for the Z have been posted regularly to...this thread.
If all information were viewable by all visitors, people would have less incentive to participate in the survey, and we'd end up with much less information.
Paradoxically, we end up with more information available to all visitors by requiring people to join to see everything.

Updated reliability stats next month.
As always, the more owners participate, the better the information we can provide to everyone.

Thank you, I appreciate it.
One note: because more extensive changes were made for 2005, I've been changing the 2004.5s to 2004s. I do record when I do this, so it can be reversed if we start tracking half-years separately. Currently they're included with the following full model year.
