Why do you guys keep giving misinformation? NO 350z's have TCS AND VDC. They have either/or.

for 03-05 the base model doesn't have anything, the Enthusiast has TCS, and the Performance, Touring and Track models have VDC.

THERE IS NO TCS BUTTON ON 350Z'S THAT HAVE VDC!

TCS is a subset of VDC... if you got VDC you have TCS... but only have a VDC button.

There you go. That's the stuff you gotta watch out for with used cars like this that have been modded. Base has no HIDs, no LSD and no TCS or VDC. Lights can be upgraded, LAD can be added and alot of people hate the TCS/VDC and shut it off the second they start the car, so it ain't all bad, but it's no Track model. Go set the dude straight and make them drop the price if you're still interested in it.

Being a base, makes more sense now that it has the 17s and it's just had the OEM Brembos added and powdercoated red...

Sorry about not being so clear. VDC is on the Track, Perf., and 6MT touring models. TCS is on enthu. and 5AT touring. Base models have neither. And yes VDC acts as a TCS on the models that have em.
