How many CANADIAN 350z owners here?

LeMans Sunset Track Pack in Richmond Hill.
I'm surprised that most people went for the Performance model instead of the Track Pack in Canada, considering the price difference between the two is only $1500. The Ray wheels and the Brembos alone are worth around $8000, plus the spoilers for another $1500. I guess you guys like the leather seats better.
Just went for my first Touchfree carwash at Sunoco, it's definitely worth the $10 to get off all the salt deposites. With winter tires, this car has no problem handling in the winter in Toronto.

well.....I do like leather seats
and I like them heated........and electric.......the spoiler can he had for about $700 installed....and the difference in braking based on the skid pad tests with the Brembos vs. regular was not that impressive to me.......I find it interesting to note that the HP and Torque numbers are the same for both models......so.......why a Track Pak without a few HP mods to justify the bigger brakes? Just an observation

NOBODY would doubt that TRACK PACKAGE is a great deal for the money(only CN$1500 differance) and it give you everything except comfy heated leather seats and heated mirror(and sucky BOSE stereo). But Trk pack. is not very attractive option for people who gonna modify thier cars.
People who have post pictures of their aftermarket rims installed are almost Perf. package owners(Touring package in U.S.A.) and I think those aftermarket wheels lookin much better than Ray's.
Regarding TRK PAK spoiler, I don't think it would create any down forces. And does not seem to look better at all... Just too plain...
And it's big obstacle when you gonna install some aftermarket spolier like Nismo's.
Best part is, of course, BREMBO brakes. I'm jealous
I'm planning to get Volk's TE37 or SSR 19' rims and the Nismo spoiler + some side skirts. Lower the car little bit. There will be lots and lots of 350z in Canada next year so I wanna make my 350z look special. I can just replace or throuw away the original part... If you got Track package.... U guys will always hesitate to upgrade anything since the original set is damm good
If trk pack 350Z has 40 more HP than Perf.(like CL and CL Type-S) I would definitely get one.

there wont be lots and lots of z's
based on the Production numbers I've seen from Nissan North America. They will be lucky to hit 30 k worldwide........that is not alot of cars.....if we see 1000 of those in canada....we'll be lucky.......
I might consider a few mods.......but not much..........something tells me that 287/274 will be enough power for me.. Nissan claims the spoiler really helps.......i hope to find that out for myself

I do have to agree that I was not planning on modifying much with the 350Z, that's why I got the Track Pack. And I do really like the Nismo spoiler over the stock spoiler, anybody interested in purchasing a slightly used LeMans Sunset spoiler? I was never impressed with the Bose system in my wife's TL, so I knew I was gonna upgrade the stereo, so no lost there. But I do like them Brembos though! Even though they don't do much to the HP, but it sure looks sweet together with the LeMans Sunset exterior.

Glacier Pearl (tri-coat)
i ordered the Performance in this colour. It looks metallic and not white.........more darker....and the three coats of Pearl should help with that Orange peel......saw one the other day...a Touring....it looks great.....
wot models and colours have been purchased in Canada? Anyone have any stats?

Lemans Sunset Performance, Edmonton, Alberta.
I love this color...I have received countless thumbs up and people young and old stop to ask me about the car and equally about the color. Not an ounce of regret. Frequently interrupted while washing my car by interested people.

Silverstone Track Pack, Toronto.
I too couldn't pass up the "deal" for the Track model in Canada. Having done the wheel/tire/springs upgrade on my past cars, I felt that the factory's hottest setup would be a nice change. And I definitely prefer the look of the Rays wheels to the standard 18 inchers. I also could not pass up those Brembos!

I'm seriously thinking of changing my order from a Performance to a Track just for the Brembos alone.
I'm hearing that there are only a handful of tracks in western canada. I like the exclusivity aspect of this.
Adding aftermarket leather and heaters will cost froom $1500-2000.
One thing stopping me is the fact that I can't get Chrome Silver in the Track. I've been set on the colour for the longest time (I know it's common, but I still love it). Redline and Lemans are too flashy for me. I wish Daytona Blue was a bit darker. Ebony is swirl prone. And every other car company out there has recently come out with a colour similar to Silverstone.
Chrome Silver is such a classic colour, and it's what I see in all the ads.... I can't see myself in another colour. Bad thing about CS is that I can't get Burnt Orange seats in it either. Dang it.... why is nissan soo restrictive. (Thanks for letting me vent)
Another thing is that the track is pretty much the same price as the G35 6mt, which has the brembos, sunroof, dual climate control, better tires, more leather, and 2 extra seats.
I'm killing myself trying to make a decision. my car comes in next month (feb), but if I switch it will be delayed until march.
What do you guys think?

Montreal. Silverstone with Burnt Orange interior. Have seen only one other 350Z around here. Daytona Blue.
Had it since Sept. Love it except for the Bose system. Let us all know when the TSB comes out for Canada. Can't wait to get it fixed.
