| to do with it? Don't let the low mileage push you into getting the Z...with the car being 11 years old and being in contact with the natural environment there are many factors that will need to be looked at. The car does have 29K on it, however, the 60K meintanance is supposed to be done at 60,000 miles OR every 10 years. Use the search function and you will see that the T-Belts only last about 10 years and it is recommended if you have not driven 60,000 miles but have reached the 10 year mark you better replace the belt. So the real 60K (with changing the belt and the water pumpe and the seals ect ect) will cost about 600-1000 dollars (depending who you take it to). Now with the 60K aside, you have many other fluids needing to be changed, probably many hoses in the engine bay might need replacing since the age and aslo fuel filter, spark plugs etc etc. (let's not forget the injectors...never know if they might have problems). So you can see even with the low mileage you will still need to do the maintanance you would do with a higher mileage Z. The only factor i would consider about the low mileage would be the healthy internals and the healthy turbos. However, you can find a high mileage Z with good turbos and internals when the owner taken good care of it. Also you can buy a high mileage Z with half the price of this Z and spend the rest on modding the car to your taste and while you are at the modding stage you can do the meintanance also (like if you want to put bigger turbos on you can pull the engine and do the 60K also). To my oppinion, if you are going to buy this Z and just drive it around at this current stage (stock I assume) for many years to come than go ahead and buy it. However, if you are planning on buying this Z for modifying and making a bad ass track/drag/street car than you are better off getting a higher mileage Z with half the price. Good luck.
