37K in 4 years is pretty good. I only had 21K on my '01 Hyundai Tiburon when I sold it a few months ago. My '87 Hardbody on the other hand has over 440,000 (never been rebuilt).

Its been a long and winding road, but overall I have to say I still love the car. Its my 3rd Z, and will probably be the last car I buy for a while. I'll be getting a Vortech installed in the next few weeks, and that better last me for the next 5 years, or the wife will kill me.
37K miles and I still smile when I take an agressive corner!!!

I will take her to Hallett Raceway for another track session in a couple of weeks. This is my second Z, and both silver Zs are safely tucked away in the garage still.

My VIN is 891. It seems high for one of the first in the US, but its a Track model. I think the pre-order percentage of Track models was something 7%, so they didn't start building them right away.
What was your first Z?
