my condolences. if its an MT make sure you keep an eye on your oil level. 07 might have cost you a little more but the added power would have been worth it.

Welcome, as you can see we're all comedians here. Enjoy the 06, if you want more power it can always be modded. Each year has it's little quirks.

Wow, you didn't waste any time!! That must almost be a record time to own your 2nd Z in.

I am sure the dealer gladly let him take it back in and paid him what his original cost was - if they sold it as an enthusiast then he found out it wasn't.. not to mention him buying a more expensive car with more room for profit
