I was confused, because the 100 Questions thread does allude to an 06 Track Model:

Sorry, I'm out of my element with Nissans and not as knowledgable as I should be. If only it was a propeller car...
Yes it does, thats odd. Can someone verify this? I was always under the assumption that the track was only produced from 03-05.

Thanks guys. Estimate ballpark I should be paying for this car? Hard to tell because there aren't a ton of 06 Track models out there to base it on.

They did produce the track for '06, but for special order only... That is an '06 track.

For the love of god, they made track models in 2006. I know, I have the 2006 350z brochure, and the track model is in there, and this car is a track model. It's not a GT because it doesn't have leather seats, or an enthusiast because it has controls on both sides of the steering wheel.

Just to put a final lid on this argument.
It's a Track model.....according to the brochure....includes Enthusiast equipment, plus: Brembo brakes, RAYS super light-weight 18" (front) 19" (rear) forged alloy wheels, front chin spoiler, rear underbody diffusers, rear spoiler and Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC).

It's a Track. Here's the official spec sheet from Nissan:

Yep, it's a 2006 Track model, which is the last year they produced that model. In 2006, they had both the Track and Grand Touring. However, I don't believe it's 306hp, but the 300hp Rev Up engine. One quick way to tell is to just look at the hood; only 2007+ models have the hood bump opposed to the 2 lines going down to the bumper. You can also pop the hood, and check for the single vs. dual intake boxes, and the location of the dipstick.

If you have a single intake with the dipstick on the right side of the car, when looking into the hood, then it's the DE Rev Up engine (the dipstick will also have an awkward shape with a few bends in it).

If you have dual intakes with the dipstick square in the middle front of the engine(the dipstick should be completely straight), then it's an 07+ HR engine.

If all else fails, check the VIN number, the user manual, and the tire pressure sticker when you open the door. If the psi and measurements of the tires match the Rays Forged tires (245/40/18 front 265/35/19 rear), then it's definitely a track , or a Grand Touring with swapped out seats. NAV/DVD/GPS was an option on GT models, and some of them don't come included with it in 2006.

probably just me but I would never get a white Z with grey interior seats....they gotta be white leather...to each his own...Its beautiful none the less.
Im gonna go with the majority and agree with it being a track model from the looks of it.
