Hit 16k in my 08 Nismo this past weekend. Had her new since October 08 (3 years)
same here, picked it up the same month and year you did with 11 miles on it. almost at 15k I think. it's been about a week since I last took it out for a spin.
I try to drive it as much as possible...but to and from work is just smarter to have a DD...
It's also nice to have the extra seats sometimes so you know you can be the driver and not depend on others who either 1.Suck at driving or 2.Are irrespnisble (being on time, directions, etc).
I parked up in the mall parking lot, and when I came out, a red Nismo Z had just parked up next to me. He looked like an older guy and we started to talk about the cars. I would never guess by looking at the car, but he said it had 85k miles and runs better than when he bought it new. Only thing I'm not sure is if it was an 07 or 08. Still crazy though!
Most don't own a Z as a daily driver. I see '03's to '05's around here with very low mileage. In the northeast they are only on the road for 4-6 months. It would take me 12 years at least to hit 60 kmi. I only drive it 3-4kmi a year.
For me, it's my exotic car. Weekend cruiser! Or garage queen as people here say... I have my new Titan, fiancee's car and a company work truck. So the miles get divided up, with the Z seeing the least use. It's not practical for anything other then FUN..
Mine is my daily driver and all I need it to do is to get me from A to B . I consider it more practical than driving a large 8 passenger gas guzzling suv that only ends up with one person in it like every soccer mom in America does . Maybe when I see some kids coming up the hill I'll change my mind, but not yet.
