Ray's Wheels/Brembo Brakes
Does anyone know if there is any possibililty of getting the Ray's wheels and Brembo brakes on a touring package? I order the touring package but, I really like the light weight Ray's and Brembo brakes. To me, that would be the ultimate package.

<b>I agree</b>...look at it this way if they won't do it....pick your own brakes and better lookin wheels. Who needs Nissan to tell you what brakes and rims to run on your very own fast a$$ car (from Nissan LOL )?
<i>Don't sweat it and upgrade later.</i> The track model is nice but I really like the look of the orange leather over the cloth seats and if you want to spend money after the fact I would rather spend it on performace parts of my choice than new seats for a track model.

Currently, there is not an option for the Brembo/Ray's on any package
other than the Track.
This topic has been discussed quite a few times.
Some believe like LeMans...buy the Touring, upgrade the wheels/brakes
later with what you want. This works best for people that want
larger than 18" wheels, even higher end brakes, or both.
I chose Track because of the difference in cost of upgrading the wheel/brake
package vs. the cost of upgrading to leather or different seats.
The seating will be significantly cheaper to upgrade or re-upholster.
If I decide to upgrade (for some strange reason) I will be able to
sell the set I have for a very good price.
In the end, it always comes down to personal choice. (I know, very philosophical)

Well, I chose the Enthusiast model so that I can upgrade my own wheels/brakes and whatever else I wanted.
I got the PP White color for my Z, and I think that RED interior goes really well with White cars. Since Nissan doesn't offer red leather seats, I'll get my own.
Plus, Ray's wheels look nice, but I'd rather use the difference in price to buy my own 18" wheels. I'd be more unique and get to pick the design of the wheel I like. I personally don't like 6 spoke designs.
