Default Would you buy again?

After having your Z's for a good amount of time, how do you feel about the car, and would you purchase again?

Thanks!

Yes, I think the Z is a great all around car. No car out there is perfect.

You should only ave to buy one sports car in your life. It should last you for as long as you need.

fortunately the z has been getting better most of the horror stories are from early build dates <03/03 mine was 11/02 so it got all the junk they were still figuring out.

Dude, I would buy again in a second. I have a 2004.5 loaded preformance. Silverstone with burnt orange seats. I only have about 4000 miles on her, but I have yet to have a single problem.
I also seriously looked at a S2K. It was a tough choice, but the Z won me over.

my 04 seems great. i still am at 4500 miles though.

no car under 50k has the appeal of the z. 60 year old people sweat me and give thumbs up from thier porches... and 16 year old girls point and cavort when i pull into the lot. it's like people think it's a $75000 car. it's probably partly because it's still kinda new... but the car is a huge hit. ...vettes and even M3s don't get the love the z gets.

Not one regret since I purchased it which has surprised me cause there were so many to pick from.

3500 miles later and not a single problem, I would not be happier.
This is a great car, for the money.
LOVE this car. And I had Vetts, Mustangs, AMX, Firebirds,

Interesting, I have similar experience as sausage5000. Most people give thumbs up and asked about the Z are in their 50-60's with high end cars. The teens just go crazy.

And yes, I would buy another. For the current offering by all manufacturers, this car is the most balanced for the $.

The Z suits my need, performance/look/cost... everything's great!
I'd buy another one in a heart beat!
