My biggest concern was the lack of visibility around the car, especially in tight areas with curbs. I can't see anything within 10' of the car.
When you take it to a car wash, make sure you go to the drive through ones, not the ones where there's a rail for the wheels. The wheels are too wide to fit, you will destroy your rims.
And I can't stress this any more, but respect the power. This is a 2-ton missile that doesn't hesitate to break loose and out of control. VDC off = bye bye car. No joke. Avoid showing off, because it WILL result in a wreck. I personally pulverized 18" of curb and had to replace my rims after sending my Z airborne just in my second week of owning it. Be extra extra careful in the rain and easy on the right foot.
If you have a head on your shoulders and can be responsible, get the Z.
If you want to fool around just to impress friends and chicks, don't get the car.

Good advice, but better advice would be to never go through an automatic car wash! It will cause marring, swirls and scratches all over your paint!
Do it yourself and do it right! Two bucket wash at a minimum!
though just buy the car regardless of what people are saying, not to sure why you were even asking in the first place.... cause we all know either way "haters gonna hate!"
