Default I bought a lawnmower today...

And fit it in the back of the Z! I was pulled up in front of Lowe's and while standing there with my rear hatch open, I had three people walk by and ask if I was going to try and fit the mower in there. It must have been the look on my face, as I stood there studying the mower and the hatch, that made people stop and ask. One guy even came over to help me lift it and try to position it in there. No damage done to the car or mower, either!

Anyone else do anything with your Z that it wasn't intended for?

I've had the opportunity to try, but I will not defile her in that manner. Her referring to my car.

I won a grill from Albertsons, but had to pick it up that afternoon. Wife was out of town with the SUV, so I was forced to use the Z. Had to fit the body of the grill in the passanger seat sideways extending into my seating area. Somehow I managed to avoid scratching anything!

I managed to fit:

-an entire CBE system back there. The stock exhaust would have fit, but I didn't want to scratch up the interior.

-a whole set of tires.

-golf set (bag, clubs, etc.)

-my road bike. I took the wheels & seat post off and managed to close the trunk.

You should use those plastic seat condoms they put on at the dealer. Safety first.
