Is the coupe really THAT much faster than the roadster?
Just bought the most beautiful 04' Z Roadster Touring. I was reading on a lot of the forums and YouTube that the coupe version was faster. My question is, is this a HUGE difference? Most people say the coupe is faster but the margin is so small it's not worth comprising the ability to go top down for. But I wanted to get your opinions.

Yes, thanks. I absolutely love my Z! Also I have noticed that the 35th Aniversary Z coupe is just as slow as the 04' Roadster in 0-60 and 1/4 mile times. So looks like to me before the later HR model years (06'+) 350z's were quite the mixed bag when it comes to performance and my 04' Roadster fits right in!

Also the ZR has a slightly taller final drive to compensate.
Enjoy your roadster, I just changed out my 06 top. If you need advice or instructions lmk

If you're car is an automatic & the other guy has a 6spd-You'll be quicker !!!
Because after many years drag racing I learned that except for a VERY FEW Z owners, the other 99% drive like chit.... So don't worry
