First off, I've looked everywhere to find the differences in roadster models, cant find hard proof, I need answers. Im sure I have a '04 Touring but I'm having small doubts...

Can someone tell me(or link me to): Enthusiast vs. Touring differences?

Just in case, I'll list my options to see if anyone here can tell:

-AT trans
-18'' non chrome rims
-Side Airbags
-Black Leather Heated Seats
-BOSE 6CD/TAPE/SUB,No Satellite, no NAV
-Aluminum Pedals
-Cruise Control
-Side Panels w/ Kneepads
-VERY slight factory window tint on door and rear windows

 

Brembo or no?
If Brembos Grand Touring. If no Brembos Touring. It is not an enthusiast.

 

Its a Touring. If it was Enthusiast it would not have Leather Heated Seats or Bose stereo.

 

Brembo and VDC i believe marks a grand touring

bose stereo, heated seats should immediately signal a touring.

 

I believe the GT Roadster was not available until the 05' models... So it's definitely a Touring Model

 

He's right

Actually it's an 2004.5 Touring model, same as mine...because of the knee pads & other plant corrections that were made on the assembly line from previous issued technical service bullentins.

 

Thanks everyone! Yeah its a 2004.5, made in june(same month as my B-Day!).
I was 90% sure it was a Touring but little things were making me question if they were just upgrades on an Enthusiast. I also found this little paragraph:

"Models and Options

The 2004 350Z Roadster will be offered in two well-equipped models – 350Z Roadster Enthusiast Model and 350Z Roadster Touring Model. Standard 350Z Roadster Enthusiast features include power seats, power-operated soft top, rear wind deflector, 17-inch alloy wheels, xenon headlights, automatic climate control, a choice of 5-speed automatic or 6-speed manual transmission and more.

The 350Z Roadster Touring Model adds a Bose® audio system with 6-disc CD changer and seven speakers, leather-appointed seats with heater and heated mirrors.

Side-impact supplemental air bags are available on both models, while a DVD-based navigation system and 18-inch alloy wheels are stand-alone options available for the Touring Model."

 

+1

Just like mine.

 

Thanks for this, I've been wondering the same thing, and have the same model. I don't seem to have the tire pressure system though, which models have that?

'03. '04, 17" wheels did not have TPS.

 

You couldn't get that option on the 04's...

The 04 roadster touring was the most expensive of the 04 models.

 

Neither did 18" wheels, at least not on the early '04s.

 

Xzero,

I have one of the first Touring roadsters produced - bought it new in Sep 03, fully optioned.

The first roadsters with 18's did not have TPS. They also didn't have the kneepads, so I think yours were added on later.

 

I have an 04 and it definetly sounds like you have the touring version.
