It is horribly unfortunate that the 370Z has these issues already. I had saved up to buy one and finally found myself in a position to pick one up and this is simply a deal breaker for me. I'm thinking I may have to wait for a future model or for a recall (which is necessary in my opinion since I see this being a problem for daily driving in the near future).

"Horribly unfortunate" ?

Were you born yesterday? First year new models have problems. No sympathy for early adopters who are indignant about every perceived slight.

I am well aware of that lol. I was not expecting it to not have problems at all. I was simply saying I would probably rather be patient and see if anything is done about it before I decide to make the purchase. I definitely still want to get a 370. That was a pretty radical assumption man, I don't know what I said that made you feel like I was completely unaware that first year new models never have any problems... I said nothing of the sort.

Don't cuss the early adopters - they're the ones whose moaning makes sure the cars are put right for people like you & me!

I say Early Adopters RTMFW.

Maybe true, but the G37 has been having these issues since it came out and Nissan ignored it.

Really? Dang so I guess the oil issues continues..mmm. A shame Nissan has ignored this..as not sure any car manufacture can get through bad press(nor should they even in a good economy). I have held off on buying til a solution is found by Nissan..and if not they could lower the price a bit more, if people are going to shell out more of their money for an oil-cooler+install.

mm...I have been on the fence for a 350 or 370(Hurry Nissan fix this..looking for a Silver/sport/6spd)
