Talking Maintenance Cost

I just got my '05 turismo and I was wondering, about how much a month do you guys spend on regular maintenance cost for your Z? how much do u guys spend on tune-ups and other basic services? What about gas? Do you guys notice it being a gas hoger at times? Any input would be appreciated

What is an 05 turismo?

Maintenance costs are low... I do everything myself.
Gas... I don't drive it all the time, so I fill up probably every 2-3 weeks.

i do my own maintenance. Let's see....

every 30k service by me is about $150 and I change pretty much everything.

Oil change once a year, $70.

Not too costly. Id cost more if you tracked it.

Ok...I've always gotten the oil changed in my other cars every 3 months or 3,000 miles. Then I got a Mercedes (Work for them) and MB's only get oil changes once a year....So does the Z fall in line with that as well? I havent actually had my Z 3 months yet but I WAS planning on getting one every three months...thoughts/suggestions????

Welcome to the forum. There will be quite a few variable here. Depending on what mileage people do, and how hard they drive effects everything.

Have a good nosey around the forum.
