Default 2006.5?

I just looked at manual, and it says 2006.5
I tried searching to see if there's any difference between 2006 and 2006.5
Does anyone know anything about this?

This question came up several months ago. I have no idea why the manual would say 2006.5?

How about something like hood switch?
I was looking through 06 service manual and I saw hood switch by the passengerside headlight, but my Z doesn't have it. Is it because I have base or is there more difference than airbag?

New airbag is the reason for the 2006.5 designation. Owners manual states such.
From the Nissan Manual Download site:

The following manuals and guides are available for the 2006 Z

Owner's Manual A (PDF, 4.0M)
Comprehensive information on the operation and maintenance of your Nissan
Owner's Manual B (PDF, 3.5M)
Comprehensive information on the operation and maintenance of your Nissan. Applicable for Z models equipped with the NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System

The only Zs that I've ever seen with the hood switch was the 03 model. Is was supposed to be for the alarm. If I remember correctly, they didn't actually do anything.
