Should leather/power/heated seats and Bose stereo get in your way of owning a 350Z?
So i'm now torn between "Track" and "Grand Touring" 2006 350Z coupes.
Has anyone gone through this tradeoffs nightmare?
Anyone know if leather/power/heated seats can be installed as a plug-n-play in a 350Z that came with carbon cloth seats?
Thanks much!

So let's see. The "Enthusiast" trim comes in at ~$4,447 cheaper than the "Track" trim.
Then the question is, can i put on following or something equivalent for ~$4,447 (or less)???
a) Brembo Big Brake Kit (front and rear),
b) RAYS super-lightweight 18" (front)/19" (rear) forged alloy wheels
c) front chin spoiler
d) rear underbody diffusers
e) rear spoiler
f) Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
And my research tells me, NO I CAN'T...
Bummer...

If you gave me the choice, I would say buy base. The cloth seats are great seats and aftermarket radios are easy enough to come by and install. My 06 base Lemans Sunset looks just as good as any other model (especially since 18" rims are now standard) and didn't break the bank. If I really want leather in the future, it isn't very much to get two seats covered.
That's just my two penny-pinching cents.

I definitely feel that the power heated leather seats are a must. If you are in a colder climate region go with the touring. I did, and have absolutely no regrets. Actually have two friends that really enjoyed driving my car as opposed to the tracks both of them have, not that they have any complaints with their Z's. Really up to you, but either way you should upgrade sounds. If you dont want to, then go with the bose. You need decent quality sounds at the LEAST.

I assume GMZ is talking about getting leather seats used for $700, which maybe you can but most of the prices on this forums are between $800-$1200 from what I've seen. forget buying them from the factory as they're most than twice that. installing them isn't too much of a problem other than the heaters which I'm not sure how you would setup w/o the thermostat/controls. you could get leather seat covers, however they won't be power/heated and they won't be as tight a fit as factory.
