How many Z owners actually took the time to go thru the manual?
Seems like alot of the questions posted are covered in the manual.

 

Yea I read it. Did it on and off over a couple of days. Total time spent was less than two hours.

 

I read it front to back but that's because I was so dang excited to finally have it in my garage...

I do find the Nav manual to be quite tedious to read. Its more or less been trial and error for me.

 

I just look at the pretty pictures....













Kidding. Actually, I downloaded the thing off the net and read it from front to back in one sitting at least a month before I got my Z. How **** is THAT?

 

I read the manual before I ordered my car!

 

Sounds very normal to me! (I did it too!)

 

Same as some others, I downloaded the PDF, and read it cover to cover before the car came.

But even more than that, I printed it out double-sided, and bound it with a nice color picture of the Sunset prototype on the cover. I use this one as much or more than the real one that came with the car because I printed my copy on 8.5 x 11-inch paper, and it's easier to read.

 

Not me

I'm Cpt. Wing it!

 

Front to back....twice.

That was before I got the Z.

Since then, I've skimmed it again.

 

Where can you get the PDF version of the manual?

 

Courtesy Parts posted it on its Web site:

thanks, commasense

 

Read the pdf here before the car got here. Had to re-read it when the car got here, forgot most of what was in it. Reading for comprehension is tough if you're a slow learner.

 

I read every single word of both the owner's manual and the DVD NAV manual.

I love reading that crap!

 

several times......which is wot we should all do

 

Oh yeah? Well my Z is on order and won't be here until at LEAST June and I have already read the PDF online. I also bought the CD of shop manual and have started looking at that for ideas!

Who says Z owners are competitive?!??

 

2 or 3 times!

Heck you guys can't keep me entertained all of the time. I have to find something else to read.

 

When you have to wait 7 months or so for your car like 6,000 of us did and all that was available was the manual. Of course you read the manual. The Z manual must be the most read manual in the history of of the auto industry.

 

Same here, Look at all these guys who read it more than once..... If I have a question I'll just ask them on here.....

 

I skimmed through most of it before leaving the dealership.

From some of the questions asked here, I have a feeling that many people don't read it. ("What time of light in my high-beam?")
