Question Looking at buying a Z

Since there is no other place to find out more about the Z than those who own one. Well Ive been looking at a 350z Track as a project car nothing big just something i can tinker with and have fun modding and enter in car shows. Well here are my questions.

The 350z ive been looking at is the Track model.

Anyways is there anything new?(I did notice more hp and brembo brakes and navi)
1. Reliability or any problems anyone may first encounter?
2. Updates with the 350z?
3. How is the Maintance?(Oil changes is straight already know that one)
4. Is it basically like any car maintance wise?(pretty much what I ment in the 3rd question)

Other cars I have been looking at as Well.
(STI, IS250, IS350)

Thanks

1. For reliability data check Consumers reports.
2. ???
3. Maintenance such as fluid changes is straight forward.
4. Maintenance is what you would expect from a performance sports car. Don't be shocked with $800 tires.

I don't see any particular advantage or disadvantage for the buyer.

ok cool tires no problem I know a friend who works at a shop get tires for a good price. davidv for the 2nd question i ment is there anything new or different about the 07 Z, like interior design etc.

Has anyone had problems with the interior? Talked with one friend he said that the interior seemed cheap when you sit in one. Ive seen the interior but never sat in one. Hoping to test one when the dealer gets there's in.
