I guess one thing has really bothered me, leading to this post:
Why are so many of these cars sold with ridiculously low mileage? So many 370z's, even on this forum get sold 3 years later with less then 15k or even 10k miles?

Is it not a good daily driver (I plan on making it mine)? Are there long term reliability issues? expensive maintenance? poor driving feel?

I dunno... just seems strange. "Bothered" is a strong word, I dunno that I'm bothered by it, but it certainly makes me think twice before I buy!
In my case, I only put on a couple thousand mile per year because I can drive it maybe 6 months per year (due to the Cleveland weather). It is not my DD, but if I lived in a location that I could, I would have no problems driving it every day.

The only regret that I have is not being able to drive it more than I do.
