According to the Nissan website the 35th Anniversary auto has 287 hp same as all other Zs except the Track model. The 6 speed has 300 hp like the Track.

The 35th anniversary 6mt and the Track have the same engine, 300hp. All other Zs have the 287 hp engine.

Thats extremely disappointing that they didnt put on any of those addon with the automatic... and are making even more expensive... I mean whats the harm in adding the same exhaust as the 6m...

just seeing if its worth getting touring and just upgrading the brakes to be equal with it then... probably could save some money

Does the Automatic version come with VDC?

man thats weird... on their site... it shows under the Vehicle Dynamics that the "auto" drops a gear to stabilize itself.

I guess ill just have to deal

Keep in mind that the 300 HP engine has 14 ft/lbs less torque, so it's basically a trade.

I didnt take that into account! Thanks a lot!

New Question!

Does anyone know when is the soonest the 35th Ann. will actually be able to be bought? I contacted 4 local dealers and this is what I got... 1) June... 2) April ... 3) March - April... 4) the last guy just said find one down in FL or CA and have it transported out here...

Any information will be glady appreciated! I plan on going to my dealers either this week or early next weekend. Thank you again!
