Also some of you may have purchased one that someone test drove it and grinded the crap out of the gear and ruined it before you took ownership...

I bought my Z with 7 miles and NO ONE drove it besides me so its smooth as butter.
I bought mine from an individual, but don't think his driving was the culprit. I think it was a bad tolerance in the synchros. It seems to occur around 20-30K miles in only a handful of Zs. Mine started around 23K. If it was because of that poor synchros tolerance, we would expect the lot of sychros to wear about the same based on the use (mileage and number of shifts). The pattern is weak, but there.

Mine's in the dealership today getting a whole new transmission under warranty.
