I don't get it. Is the only difference from the Touring the Brembos?

Oh, Ok. Brembos and VDC. Got it. (Touring already has 18" wheel option)

 

When you added NAV on 04 Touring - they added the wheels.
ON the 05 GT ZR - you get them, with or without NAV option...

 

Even on the '04 Touring Roadster....When you added Nav for $2000. You still had to pay $1200. for the 18s........And what really bit was the chrome 18s were'nt avail until mid-late '04....And then they were a $1600. option.....

 

I got the 18's on my 04 without the nav - for $1200 of course...

 

BTW: Was just mentioning how 18" wheels option would be added on the 04 Touring, compared with 18" wheels being a standard on the 05 GT ZR. I Presumed everyone knew they were an additional $1200.00 - Was not implying that they threw them in for free!

 

$42K …Ouch!

OK, a Roadster w/ Brembos & an 18” wheel/tire package, yada, yada, yada ….

I don’t know, 42 big ones are still 42 big ones…. ’04 Roadsters with low, low miles can be had for about $10-12K less than that. And you can do a lot of modding for $12K. Heck, you can buy a great daily driver/”beater” for that kind of cash.

Sorry, I’ll pass on that ‘deal’….
