Message	I've had my Z for almost 4 years... in that time, I'lve only put on 10k miles... The bitch has either been broken, or waiting for parts. All I have ever wanted was to be able to drive the car for 1k miles without something breaking or failing. Hasn't happened yet. I think I am almost there though. After this bushing replacement project, I should FINALLY be able to enjoy it. Good luck without being able to drive your Z.
