Notice the Track model also gets the 300hp motor...

"The 35th Anniversary Z®’s engine has been modified using revised pistons and camshaft and the addition of electronic exhaust valve timing control. The same engine will also be available as standard equipment on the 2005 350Z Track model (6MT only), which also goes on sale in early 2005."

It seems that the speculation that the new engine would contain the NISMO S1 was innacurate.

The new Ultra Yellow exterior color utilizes a new high-luminance and high-chroma pearl pigment and three layers of top coat (with separate color pigment and pearl pigment layers) to create an almost “liquid” surface appearance.


Hmmm!

Is it just me or does it look like the calipers stick out over the rims?

Got a couple of questions after reading the article:

Is the 300 hp motor only available with the 6 spd? If you get an auto, then just the regular 287 hp motor, right?

Also, the price is the same as...what? The Track model?

Thanks for the help. Take care.
