Hey guys,
I was planning on getting a 370Z some time this month and I just got through the 50+ pages and am pretty disappointed. There's literally no other car out there right now that appeals to me price/performance/aesthetics-wise as the 370Z so naturally reading about this problem basically felt like getting kicked in the crotch.
I'm basically on the fence after reading all of this. It seems like a lot of you have issues while a lot haven't. I wouldn't be taking the car to the track but spirited driving will definitely occur somewhat often. So far it doesn't seem like they're addressing this issue for the 2010 models so it seems like now is as good a time as any to get one.
I just had a couple quick questions regarding this issue...
1) This is my first car and I've had my fair share of unreliable cars (used to be a big DSM guy) but I really don't want to have to constantly keep my eye on the oil temp gauge every time I decide to pass someone on the highway. I live in Illinois so I hope this won't be a huge issue but still has me concerned. How serious is the oil temp problem for someone who will be using the car as a daily driver and will not see track time?
2) Has Nissan in fact released an oil cooler available for purchase yet?
3) If so, what are the odds of me negotiating the cooler being worked into the price for free before buying?
4) Finally, and this isn't oil temp related, any ballparks on how long it would take to get the car if I ordered one? I'm looking to get a black 6spd with the sport package. Like I said, this is my first time snagging a new car so I won't settle. I'll wait if I have to, just wondering how long I could expect.
Sorry for the noob questions, any replies are appreciated.
