I didn't know there was a 2004 grand touring. IIRC, 2006 was the first year for the GT.

I traded in my '05 PPW Touring 6MT for an '08 Carbon Touring 6MT with Nav, and I can honestly say, without a doubt, I'm more than happy with my decision. I'm not really a fan of the release pics of the new 370z, and the HR engine does me just fine. I absolutely love the color too, as I could never keep the PPW clean.

I was a bit nervous I was making a mistake, but after a couple of months in the new ride I love the '08 like no other car I've ever owned before. Just fantastic and a lot more fun to drive.

Nissan's website that lets you build your own car with all the options you want? Or a Nissan dealerships website? If it is the official Nissan website the prices they quote you are WAAAAAAY above what any normal person would buy the car at. I would get an invoice price for the GT car without the Nismo stuff so you at least have a figure to base anything on.

Is it a roadster? MSRP for an 08 GT roadster is $40,980. Add NAV and it could be $45k. But then who would pay that???

2005 had a GT for the roadster model.
