22,000? Is that way too high or probably way too low? lol Anyways, I also don't understand why most of my friend tend to mod the base model, seriously.

Everything offered in a touring I would have removed. Bose would be the first to go, factory lsd would be next , don't want traction control. I bought an 08 base put in my touch screen head unit, getting the quaife installled and still had money for exhaust and other mods. I do wish I had leather but I'm sure I could find some seats with little effort.As for the whole Z vs G , Both very nice cars .

The factory lsd is ok for normal driving but when pushed it will not hold like an aftermarket lsd. I had the factory lsd in my 06 enthusiast and was never happy with it, so I started with a base this time.

I say go for the Z, I personally love the stock Z performance. Although, stiffer strut bars will be my next mod. for the tight twisties.

Sounds like a good choice to me.

These cars get fast with some bolt-ons. Couldn't believe the numbers my car put down.

Seriously though, just go drive some cars. You might like one you didn't expect to.

So basically you wouldn't want the stock lsd but rather have no lsd?? Im a noob at the whole rear end deal but IMO wouldn't having the stock LSD be better than no lsd? I mean you can still put an aftermarket on no matter if it came with it or not.

I would just buy a used 07+ G35 Sedan with the HR motor w/ 6MT or non rev up G35 Coupe in MT. Seems more versatile to me then a 2 seater Z with not much of a drawback.

The stock lsd would be better than no lsd yes that is true. I just didn't want to pay for something I knew I would be removing. I have had the factory lsd before and was not happy with the performance. I bought the base knowing that a quaife would be added.

Rim? You only want one? haha

If you're being serious though about wanting G rims, I dont think you want his - look at the pic again and you'll see damage to it. I also doubt the owner wants to buy it back to part it out...
