Default 2003 350z coupe -> 2004 350zr Roadster

I owned a 2003 Touring 6 speed with all options including navvy and just traded it in for a 2004 Roadster Touring 6 speed loaded.

Besides the drop top - here's what I notice as different:

Knee pads on console
Driver Seat adjustment additions
SMoother Clutch
Significantly smoother ride -
Stock Bose Stereo is now tolerable
New Steering Wheel leather
Black center console instead of Grey
Same Tires front and back 225's all around
Better compartment mechanisms...heavier duty

Other than that not much else...

I took delivery last week of a PPW with Navy Top Frost Interior 6 speed 18" Wheels.

I love it.

curious, SSK. Why didn't you trade in the coupe at the time of the purchase of the ZR and receive a trade-in tax allowance? Did you end up paying the full amount of state use taxes on both cars?

Without going in to too much detail, I turned in my car to NISSAN.

Same Tires front and back 225's all around??? Is that true for all 2004 Roadster Touring 6 speeds.

I thought front & back were never the same.


Tires: P225/50WR17 Fr & P235/50WR17 Rr HP
tires with 225mm width, 17.0" rim

or

Tires: P225/45WR18 Fr & P245/45WR18 Rr HP
Low Profile tires with 225mm width, 18.0" rim

Nope, they are not same all the way around.

Its P225/50WR17 Fr & P235/50WR17 Rr like you said.

You can get the 18" but its an option. $1200.
