A&Q about 350Z
Q:
I was at the dealer yesterday and saw the 2006 spec sheet they had laying out for the 350z. It seemed like they didn't want me to see it, probably b/c they wanted me to buy the 05 floor stock they already had. Went back today and "borrowed" a copy to share ther changes with everyone here. Looks significant enough to make me want to wait for the 06 model.
Among the changes, some of which have already been mentioned are:
New cloth seat material
Revised gauge styling
Adjustments in location of seat heater switches, hazard switch, and cup holder
Steering wheel audio controls (except base model)
Steering wheel switch lighting (except base model)
MP3 capability
Revised HVAC controls
New door panel styling
Storage space in in door panel
New storage in passenger side footwell
Revised front bumper, front headlights and grille
Revised rear lamp (LED)
Standard 18 inch cast allow wheels
300 HP on all manual transmission models
Vehicle speed sensitive steering (TPOS - Twin Orifice Power Steering)
3 new colors: Silver Alloy (K23) replaces Chrome Silver (KYO), Metallic Black (G41) replaces Super Black, and Interlagos Fire (L40) replaces Ultra Yellow (E33)
Grand Touring Coupe model added
Perfomance model deleted
Track and Grand Touring Coupe will have 18" front, 19" rear wheels super light weight forged alloy wheels
Grand Touring Coupe and Roadster A/T will include all items on Coupe Touring plus Brembo Brakes, Front and rear spoiler, vehicle dynamic control

I don't like the new front as much, but I like the LED's in the back more.

it really isnt much faster the torque numbers are decreased but the hp is bumped up and either way its still only 13hp. If you want alot more HP super/turbo charging is the way to go
