350Z-No Problems???
As a regular reader of this forum, every time I drive my car I expect problems. However, I don't have any. What am I doing wrong?
FYI:
VIN: 009368
Miles: 2827

We should start a support group or something. 'problemless anonymous' We're not alone.
Although I may not qualify because my front seat has that movement/clicking which does drive me crazy. tackling the fix tomorrow however.

Good idea!!!
I guess I could complain that the bass and treble adjustments, on my Bose system, really don't seem to have any impact on the sound. However, it sounds OK to me.

I get a little of the grease streaks on the windows and a wiper blade needs replacing, but I'm not gonna get torqued off about it. It's an awesome ride.

Owners with problems are the loudest. This makes it appear that many are having problems. They aren't. The majority have no problems. I have no problems either (except the window oil streaks). Design complaints are another matter (e.g., tires, suspension bounce, etc.).

I don't even have any complaints about the tires. I haven't pushed them to the max. My top speed, so far, has only been 120 mph. However, I've been driving on wet, icy roads ( not at 120 ) and the tires grip very well.
As far as the suspension, I had a Mercedes E55 AMG and a Lotus Esprit Turbo that had a rougher ride. My CD player hasn't even skipped .
I'm keeping my fingers crossed; but, it seems that Nissan has done a very good job, at least on the Touring w/ auto trans.

Just remember that we are **** about our cars and forget that hundreds of parts are required to work in unison in order to move the vehicle. All in all I think everything works pretty well.

I've only had my car 1 day. Other than the object that hit my car (not nissan's fault), I've not had any problems. My tire warning light was on, once I got the appropriate psi in the tires it went right off.
(crossing my fingers) I haven't noticed any rattles and I don't even have the window streaks! I'm not stereophile so the bose dosn't sound bad to me.
On friday (night before I purchased), I searched for all the complaints/problems with the Z so I would know what to look for. I must say, I was a little discouraged after reading all the posts. So far, I haven't seen any of the problems. I just have to get that hood fixed!!

Good point, WayneTN.
We're not abusing our cars enough and then wondering why they break. Hell, I already tried that w/my body when I was young.

I LOVE abusing the car. So far it doesn't complain at all. I've developed sort of an addiction--constantly think about what I can do to tweak & 'improve' the car. Glad to see that I have lots of company.
