Not neccessarily, since this is not a new generation Z. This is basically the 2005 Z with some bolt on changes. It wouldn't take long to change a 2005 to a 2006 in their plant.

IOW, they really don't need to retool very much to get this out the door.

can you compare the silver alloy vs chrome silver? im guessing its probably paler like liquid aluminum was

yeah kind of a let down right?
they are basically 35th wheels with a lip and the dot motif
but hey is the nismo Z a factory option? or is it just lumped into sport Z's pics
hey blue komodo- is that silver alloy or silverstone? i got a question i think maybe no one has noticed yet.
ok if chrome silver is discontinued for 06, then what color was that roadster SHO-TIME got a pic of? silver alloy?

Not sure about the Nismo Z for you guy's. It's not an option here. It's Silverstone dude. Yeah, I guess that was Silver Alloy, we call it Airstream here. I don't really see the diff between Plum Brandy/Interlogos Fire, and Brickyard.
