Thanks. I hope they come sooner than that! 07 discounts!

2007 models were seen in January 2006, (some say they were held because there was a surplus os available 2006 models still at dealerships)

oil problems happen to probably ten percent or less of the 06 Z population...and there are even less then that with major oil problems...and production month/yr doesnt matter its the whole time....some of us jsut get unlucky

Just get a 07 its stupid to buy the 2006. Or get a 2005 non revup manual you dont wanna be in the dealer all the time alot of people do have the oil burning problem. I would get the 07 the HR engine is so much better trust me i test drove and almost bought it but they tried to rape me on the trade for my 03. Save a few extra dollars and get the 07

07 models I didn't even discuss it with dealers since they don't have discount and I expect to get enth models for like 30k OTD? There is no way I can get it.
Yes I like the new engine, but paying 4 grand more? ... It is not worth to me...

If I was buying a Z now, I would get an 07, even if I hate the hood and it costs more.

I really think more than 10 people have this issue and it should be strongly considered before buying the 06. Also 24-25K 06's were sold, and not every one was manual. I suspect maybe 10000 or so are manual, but that's a guess. I bet in the future used 06 MT sell for less because of the oil consumption.
