J/K - there are some true 04's that have the knee pads so I'd have to assume there are some others floating around with other early cosmetic differences.

Mine's a 2006.5, which means it was the last version to have the VQ35DE, rather than the new HR motor. Obviously, as the years go by, Nissan only makes improvements.
