Haha, I think it has to do with I have purchased the only Z they have sold in their year of existence in this small town. There are basically no Zs here.

That everyone thinks you have to take that shroud off to do an oil change... The dealer ONLY takes off the back 4, and bends the plastic down
yah, you dont have to take it off. you can also siphon up the oil from the dipstick if you want.

but for me, i use my ramps and im not about to go to the other side of that flapping cover just to drain the oil and make more work for myself.

Same here. I have only done one oil change in the driveway so far--no ramps but on jack stands. It seemed a lot easier to just remove it than to try to wiggle under it.
