Battery goes almost dead if car sits for a week not driven. Car got driven daily until son left for Navy BMT. Do I need a trickle charger or a mechanic ? Ive had other sports cars that did this but usually took about 2 weeks not a week..

OP never mentioned how old this Z's battery was. Anything over three years old is suspect with a lead acid battery.
