No.

I bought my Z for driving. Period. Not running errands. Not hauling people around.

Driving.

With only 2 seats, the Z isn't good for much else, and I like it that way.

Our Magnum RT has 75k+ miles on it and it's less than three years old. My Z is almost 3.5 years old and has 33k. Most of its miles have come from autocross tracks (one 1/8 mile and one 1/4 mile drag strip) or getaway road-trips for the wife and me. -Including three trips to the tail of the dragon.

If it were a more useful car, I think it might see more miles doing mundane tasks.

I kinda like the 2+2's... I know they're ugly but sometimes I like ugly cars... Reminds me of sexy librarians

OK it's official. We have reached the end of the internet and completely run out of new things to talk about.

I wouldn't want back seats. I'm too tall anyways, so its not like there would be any room behind me even if there were seats.

Well before you go wishing for 4 seats, you should drive a G35 and "feel the excitement".
