I haven't read any of the other posts, but they should all say something along the lines of:
"Unless you are planning on forced induction, its pretty much bullet proof". As to shifting, you have full control over shifts, up or down in "M" mode (although it will automatically downshift if you would be in too high a gear for your speed), so that means fun when you feel like it/aren't stuck in traffic, and relaxing cruiser when you just need to get from point A to B.

I can agree that the auto is pretty amazing to say the least...I've put over 52k on mine in colorado weather conditions, +3500 mile road trips and also I've tracked multiple times. I agree she gets sluggish when she heats up (shift flares at the track), but for a daily driver she's held strong...runs smooth and shifts are firm and precise in manual mode. I'll give ya a 75k update next summer...

I have a 2013 AT and had to take it to the dealer within the first 3 months. SES light came on and the trans had started to shift funny. Dealer had to re-flash the computer and after that everything was back to normal. From what I know this is an "uncommon" but not necessarily "rare" issue. All things considered not bad at all. The repair was done in an hour and I got to sip coffee and look at two killer GTRs in the showroom while I waited.

Well I did it!!!!! I love all the features of the Touring model and since its an automatic I don't have to shift manually anymore.
So far first impressions are.... 1) fuel gauge shows completely full now..the last indicator light on the fuel gauge of the 09 never lite up when the tank was full. 2) no more whine from the ECU thingy..... 3) lift gate now pops up with more force and doesn't have to be pressed twice like the 09. 4) the automatic transmission in this vehicle is a BEAST. 5) Bose audio is 100% better than the base stereo unit. 6) Call me crazy by it seems that the cockpit is slightly more roomer than the 09. I swear the dash is pushed back a few inches. 7) the ride seems to be smoother and quieter. I cant tell if that's cause of the stock rims or not? I had aftermarket rims on the 09 when I bought it. 8) The automatic seems to feel quicker off the line than the manual was. ???? 9) The oil temperature now stays near 200 instead of 220 like the 09 Z... ????? That's all i've noticed so far... |

Congrats. I hope it gives you many carefree/wild years of service. Fun stuff.
