Lightbulb

speaking about light weight Asians....
BTW.....bruce lee was only 120 lbs....and he kicked butts.
Lotus elise weights only 1800 lbs.....and it whips ***.
so before making fun of anything being light weight....think again

Same thing happened to me. Fist cold morning I roll out of my subdivision on to the major road and just as I was braking for the redlight this loud chime starts. Scared the crap out of me. Added a little air to the tires and the light went off and had no problems since. Congratz on the 100k. I too am going to drive my 05 untill it is old and the DB turns grey. Its nice to hear that you haven't had any mojor problems. Hopefully they have improved the window motors some. BTW I have 5200 miles on my 4 month old Z and still loves it.

Too bad karate is a rip off of Kung Fu and so is everything else in Japan. Maybe except for the cruelty.

+1 I got my car used with 7k miles and I freaked out at how quickly I got it to 11k. I have had the car for 1 year next week and I am still under 20k so I don't even care anymore... I need to start driving to houston more to rack up some mile

Daily drive is about 150 miles total (65 miles to work and other runinng around)

Most of the driving is open freeway stuff 80-90 mph.

Nissan has replaced all the window motors at no cost, I did get the 100K warranty extension.

I do alot of canyon runs and drive the car pretty hard. My house is at the base of highway 74 in California. One of the best canyon roads (about 20 miles of twisty roads). I go to the track 3-4 times a year, and do AutoX at Qualcomm Stadium 3-4 times a year.
Other than the window motors (both of my window motors and regulators failed a few months ago), it sounds like the car has held up pretty well even when driven hard.

I'm glad I bought a 7 year/70K mile extended warranty. Judging by your record and mine so far, it sounds like the window mechanism and motors aren't very reliable.
