Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - 2010 Consumer Reports Owner Survey says Z is 45% below average in reliability

Probably because the average G owner doesn't push the car to the point of high oil temps. As a new Z owner, ( haven't even taken delivery on my used 09) the fact that these issues are surfacing are a bit concerning to me. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't thinking twice about my purchase.

I did notice that the auto consumer guide rating was rather low. Thankfully my car still has the factory warranty, but still I'd hate have to be in and out of service as soon as I start driving it.

I guess only time will tell.
