To buy or not to buy

I love my Z... I bought mine with 12k miles as well and thankfully it was very well cared for.

I keep all of my cars in perfect shape and treat them very well... it will last as long as you care for it.

When I first started driving my Z I was a little concerned about the visibility and since I came from a car that had great visibility I felt out of my element. Drive the car for a week or two and you will adjust to it and learn how to drive properly without having to see everything. I'm used to it now and it doesn't bother me.

The road noise is pretty bad, esp if you get the Sport package with the 19" wheels. I have gotten used to it, just turn the radio up. :-D

In all seriousness, understand that the car has a lack of cargo space and there isn't a ton of places to put things. BUT it's a sports car... more so than a Mustang IMO. When you come from a 94 GT (my first car EVER) it's going to feel like a solid machine.

I hope the best for you! Good luck!
