First oil change at home. Yes, I am using jack stands--just hard to see from the angle of this pic. The first change at just over 1,000 miles was done by my mechanic. However, getting the car on the lift required driving it up on boards so the lift arms could get underneath. Then I noticed that one of the lift pads had caught a bit of the side skirt and actually cracked a piece of the rear inner fender lining components at the bottom. Decided that I would do this one myself.
Once finished, went for a drive. I really feel for those of you that live in colder climates and garage your Z for the winter. I would really miss it if I had to leave it that long.
