Thinking of buying, question about high mileage

gizmo8500

So I think I'm loosing my mind cause I can't help but want this car despite knowing it's completely impractical for me. The reason I say that is because I live in West Virginia where there are hills and snow, and I live on one of these hills with a gravel driveway. More on that later.

My primary question is this: I see that most people don't put many miles on their Z. I would like to hear from anyone that uses the Z as a daily driver and puts a decent number of miles on it. How does it hold up? I suspect I will put some serious miles on it. I've put 50K miles on my Accord since April 2008.

The Z I'm looking at is a touring model. It has around 5000 miles on it. I believe it was one owner by an older couple who moved out here and decided they didn't want to mess around with snow and the Z, however this is from a dealership and they could be telling me anything. I'm hoping that I can get a good deal on it cause there's snow everywhere, and they were even trying to give the car away in a promotion (but no one won it to my knowledge). I'm thinking of offering 23,500 and see what they say about that...maybe that's a little too low though?

I have two older Jeeps that can get me through the snow, but there is plenty of time during the year there's not snow on the roads. It's almost always on my driveway for the whole winter though, so I'll have to figure a way to get it up and down. It's about a 30% grade. Am I just being stupid about all this? I really love the Z, every time I look at it its like I'm in love. I can't seem to apply rational thought.
