Me too, but I occasionally alternate...only 1900 mile in ~ 5 month (the SS only has 1500 in 6 months - 400 just from driving it home from the dealership!!)
The Z is a GREAT d.d., especailly manual, but I wonder if I'd say the same if it was TT'd??

I drove mine all of last year, (will be buying a winter car this year). Invest in a set of Blizzaks (sp) for snow driving. You will be amazed with the traction you get. My summer tires are Toyo T1R's. Rain is no problem.

03 6mt I drive mine when the weather is good. No snow, no rain (if it can be avoided). Only reason I got the Z is I rebuilt another vehicle and use that as the ****ty weather transportation.

I've put 9600 miles on my Z since I started this thread last August.

My "beater" Pathfinder isn't running right, gotta get it fixed and sell it.
