There were some lingering first model year issues (throttle lag, ECU whine, etc) and I just ended up not caring for the chassis that much.

I will say after the 5.0 and S2000 I do appreciate it a little more (since it's a blend of both), I just wish it was better executed.

Most of the problems I've had with both of my Z's have been at least partially my fault.

On Bobo's recommendation, I picked up the Silver version which doesn't seem to be plagued by the problems reported on the Black.

we like our S2000s..

The S2000 is a special car, for sure.

I have been getting really frustrated with it lately, but I think it's due to the fact that I have no f*cking doors and everything is all over the place.

The door cards are on their way to me. If I'm lucky I'll get them next Friday/Saturday. Just in time for my date with Ron.
