94k on mine. Have put 6k on it in 5 months...my job requires a fair amount of driving. Will be storing the Z for the winter, so I guess it kind of evens out. I plan on picking up a cheap dd for the winter and then for the summer months on days when I have to drive quite a bit for work. Will be averaging less than 10k a year, so no complaining here.

First post here and am happy to do so.
My 2004 Touring Roadster now has 130K. I purchased it about 6 weeks ago with 125K and after going through a number of silly issues (tires, alignment, tuneup - that was fun!) its everything I knew it would be. Last remaining issue for me, besides the impending roof replacement is the passing of about a quart of oil a week. When I purchased the car I was very careful about checking the exhaust at first start of the day (nothing) and then driving it after it was warmed up (lots of tourqe and still no exhaust smoke). I've narrowed it down to the PCV and just changed that. The original valve was kind of sticky and not as loose as it should have been, especially after it cooled off. Even if this doesn't solve it I'll change the engine next spring.
I had my first taste of a "Z" type car back in the '70s with a Datsun 810 and its straight 6 engine. Great car and drive train, beat the snot out of it (4 speed). Had to get back to a Nissan and another Z.

04 with 32000 miles 
I wish I knew exactly how the car ended up an average less than 4k miles a year...
I know it didn't sit for any extended period of time, carfax shows consistent mileage increases at every annual registration.
Someone must've babied her like I wish I could- weekends only, that kinda thing.
Worked out well for me
