How's it going, I can only speak for myself because I actually had the CSC issue with my Z, yea it's a common issue for some but not all, kinda depends on how well did the previous owner take care of the car if you're buying used, you can always get it inspected though to make sure everything in order. But if I had the opportunity to go back in time I would still would have bought my Z absolute fabulous car hate that this CSC issues are giving us a bad name. And by the way this is my second Z went from the 350 to 370z so as you can see I'm a fan. Wish you the best of luck car shopping, I say get the Z lol

You really need to beat it to the punch. First time was under 12k and was replaced under warranty. The 2nd was close to 60k and the oem was replaced with aftermarket before total failure. Many of us in the forum upgrade to an aftermarket CSC. The starting problem you speak of is the infamous steering lock issue and can occur on a pre '12 model. Never heard of any post '12 model Z with a steering lock issue.
