thanks for the comments guys. I just wanted to share my experience and my love for the car. I gotta say even though i drive it everyday it still impresses me each time. I still turn around and take a quick glance as I walk away from it and smile. You guys know what i'm talking about. The only real gripe is the front bumper is badly chipped. No surprise there though. Haha. The rest of the car still looks great and glossy.

 

a good feedback post on a Z like this takes away all of the other bad posts. this is great.

 

GOOD LAWD ALMIGHTY! That's a lot of miles. I just passed the 10k mark in my '06

Good to know you are enjoying the car. Thanks for the input.

 

It's good to see some others putting a lot of miles on the Z. Got my 06 in Feb and i am at 12.3k. Sad, too, because I live 3 miles from my work. Problem is everyone i know lives 20-30 miles from me and most importantly the gf lives 40 miles. Meh, just means more time I get to go "ridin' in the car, car".

 

well actually i bought the car in january of 07, so its been.... 8 months and 16500 miles.. but yeah still not too bad

 

good write-up! and thanks for telling me ill be trouble free with my 06! i only got 21k, bought november 05. i put 18k on in the first year, and once i noticed i put that many miles on, i stopped driving.

i have a 1/2 mile commute to my job!

 

Good review. 67k really isn't that much. I put 45k on my old Integra in a little less than 6 months.

 

Wow. I thought I had a lot of mileage on 2006 Z, bought end of Oct 2005. It's currently at 16K miles. Of course, I use to live in NYC and easily was doing under 5K miles / year on Mustang.

 

 

you wont have any problems as long as you show your car love.

 

just put up a pic to make the thread more interesting

 

holy crap. 67kmiles? that's tons of miles. I don't think Ive driven 67k miles total for the past 5 years. The Z looks nice, especially with the drop and a few bolt-ons, your commute should definitely be enjoyable.

 

Do you have that damn hatch rattle and if so did you find a perminent solution?

 

Nice ride. Good job, Dude.

 

I had an oil consumption problem with my 04 Z and my Silverado 4x4; was using Mobile1 in both.

Switched to German Castrol in the Z and Amsoil in the Silverado and have yet to come up short on any checks of the dip stick on either vehicle. The oil switch was about a year ago, so I'm convinced it was the Mobile1 oil, at least in my case.

 

Good write up, it looks like we have identical cars and purchase months. I bought in Jan 06 and have 34k on mine.

My commute is 2 hours each day and I concur on most points. I don't have any grease issues but my dash rattles a bit, will fix that.

What about your tires? That was my first big change.

 

You get to spend almost 5 hours a day in your Z. I am jealous.
