I rally enjoyed the 370z.

Yes, you are! Now, please sell me your Z very cheaply as I am 56 and could use another. Thx.

I just saw this threat and couldn't hold back a comment. Check my old thread; I bought my 2011 370Z when I was 70 and still have it. It is my daily driver and has held up well. It makes me feel good and keeps me young. I am furious when I see 70-year old people referred to as elderly.

The only maintenance, other than fluids, was alignments. It seems to eat tires; 20K on the original Yokohamas and 32K on the Michelin touring tires. (To Michelin's credit, they gave me a nice adjustment on the next set.)

My husband wants me to get a new Corvette or a 400Z, but no, I am sticking with my 379Z.
