Factory sunroof is by far my biggest wish for the Z, next to factory turbo that is. Sadly, we'll likely see neither in this generation! <NISSAN PLEASE PROVE ME WRONG!!!>

Agree with the sunroof. The aftermarket ones are nice, but somehow I'd rather go factory.

Better quality leather seats would be nice. Mine are starting to crack after 15 months and 15,000 miles.

Dude, you know why the Z doesnt have all that crap? Because thats not was the Z was ever designed as. Its not supposed to be a luxury car, its not supposed to be some cushy sunday driver. Its not supposed to be quiet inside. The Z was designed as pure sports car even it means giving up a little comfort.

I'm tired of people comlaining how the interior looks cheap or the suspension is too hard or I wish it had built in automatic shaver. You know what? You bought the wrong car. Go buy a bimmer or a lexus. Whatever you do, just stop complaining and enjoy the ride.

I wish if I ever do get a Z that it came with a sunroof but I don't think that it would probably make the chassis' strenght a whole lot weaker. The way I see it, the roof is tiny as it is to bring the entire car together at the top. To make a sunroof hole there, I don't think it'd be a very safe car to get into an accident into. Plus, if it was a rear sliding sunroof, it would only be able to slide back so far or else you'd hit it with the hatch if you opened the rear right? Just a small speculation.

I wish they would cut even more stuff out of the car if anything. It weighs enough already, why make it weigh more? The G35 coupe is the car for many people.

Yes, i do agree that i would like the interior better if they stuck with one material instead of those materials they used on the door panels which are not my personal taste. Sometimes it looks to me that they ran out of materials and just patched the thing together but I guess others like it that way.

Dude, you better chill... The original post asked what YOU think would be cool on the Z.

Nothing you brought up had anything to to with what I requested. Hell, most of my preferences are already available of the new Euro Z.

If you're satisfied with the Z, great. But don't tell others what they can or cannot wish for.

First of all dont ever tell me to chill. You dont know me other than through this forum so talking like that will get you nowhere. Second, I never told you what you could or couldnt wish for. I simply said if you are looking for those type of things, you obviously bought the wrong car. So go find your cushy little bimmer and leave the Z alone.

edit: If thats what you call a "canowhoopass" it must be damaged goods cause that was pretty ****ing lame.
