Default What European Suspension???????

Hey people I just got a 2004.5 Z (built Jan2004) after owning a 2003 Z (built June 2002) and find absolutely no difference in suspension setups. Was this just a marketing ploy by Nissan? I now have 2000 miles of NYC street driving on my new Z and am considering doing a TEIN Flex install. However I keep getting conflicting reports about whether or not its softer than stock on the lowest setting. Anyone know for sure? I find myself driving slower than other cars on the street to avoid rattles.

why did you sell your 2003 Z and buy a 2004 model?

27 service visits in one year did the trick. Actually Nissan bought the car back after I filed for a Lemon Law arbitration.

Lesson learned: Never buy the first year model.

It's OK. MY new Z is making up for all the previous problems. The 04's have some nice touches: automated NAV door, knee pads, extra power outlet, and improved BOSE. I couldn't be happier.

Hope you enjoying yours as much as I'm enjoying mine.
