6 months and 4200 miles in for me. I'm still really impressed at how good the car is on every level, especially at it's price point. I've had 8 Porsches...No need to go there anymore for me..

Only thing to disappoint me was the brakes, really don't feel like I should have to spend $4K to fix something that should have been adequate to start with. Love everything else about the car.

They are fine for street driving, but under auto-cross or light track duty they have weird fade characteristics where the ABS goes crazy and causes a dangerous condition. Something in the calipers can't handle the heat, changing pads, fluid, and rotors makes no difference.

5,600 miles since Feb. and loving every single second of it. Still. Every time I get in it.

I kind of enjoyed my Evo IX every time I got in it but in the end, that was just an econo-box with a turbo attached whereas the 370z has an actual "luxurious" factor. Even better.

I'm just shy of 6 months and love it! 7600 miles on her so far and love it. I have to agree with the seat becoming much more comfortable too.

Now if my damn Volks would come in Ryan!
