Not for warranty work, but I think you can take it in for general maintenance work, especially since the engine is nearly the same. I forgot that you said you had a Z when I wrote that - you may want to call the dealership and ask - 800.285.0300

Richmond is the stain in the underwear of VA...

That place is ghetto and I am black and I was ashamed to walk the streets.
I will never go back there again.

We both had our alarms installed in Richmond. I walked around cus the install took like 6 hours. I walked to a shopping center that looked like the @sscrack of the city lol..

On a brighter side, the city looks nice when I take the curves at 90 mph on 95 going south

^^ Is your alarm one of those that you can shut off your engine using Internet?? And also see the GPS location of the car and such.

Went there today, wasn't as bad as I thought. I guess VCU is located in the ok area rather than the Projects. And as far as housing, found a nice two stories apartment + two bedrooms + one bathroom with Utilities and a one year lease, it comes down to $1000 a month. So 500 me, 500 room mate. The place is real nice and huge. 10min walk to the college and high speed internet and everything.

Let me help you out a bit.

I'm not a big fan of the City of Richmond. However, the surrounding areas are very nice! There are parts of downtown Richmond that are nice, but overall I'm not a big fan of it. The VCU area is interesting. VCU isn't in the best part of town. However, there are nice safe parts around there. There is the Fan District which is nice, but it is kind of weird. You have million dollar homes on one block and the next block is dangerous. You might be better off moving outside the city and commuting in. You're looking at a 15 to 20 min commute...and it may not even be that much depending on where you look. You might want to try the Chesterfield area. You can get good prices and it's a nice area....well most of it.
