Base 350Z or not?
 
I mentioned this in the post below.. but I'm buying this thing in a few hours.. just curious:

Take a look at the interior of this car -- Anything look different than base to you?

Here is the outside back (which shows, I think, Fairlady Z):

And this shows the condition and the chrome rims.. on a "base" model I think.

So am I right with -- This is a pure Base 2008 350Z with a "fairlady Z" badge added,.. some sort of aftermarket headunit, and chrome rims?

Also while I'm at it -- The trip computer on the dash.. all models have the MPG, Distance to Empty, etc right?

I ask, because I find it a little odd a 2008 car would have cruise control as an option and not standard at it's price point.

Sorry for asking probably obvious questions, I really think it's just a plain jane base model.. which is fine.. just curious if you experts see anything different than I do, as I'm learning. If you can make out that headunit, what is that thing? The listing says CD/Satellite --

Thanks

No cruise on base, that is how they forced people uplevel.

It can be added.

Fairlady z badge means nothing.

You have a base z. Cruise was my first indication. HEadunit is aftermarket.

No buttons on the steering wheel always means "base".

Chromatic 12-12-2013 07:31 PM

Ok, it's what I thought. Just wanted to make sure. The wheels threw me off a little because I didn't know base came with chrome.

dcains 12-12-2013 07:36 PM

No Z33 came with OEM chrome wheels.

SQuaLZ 12-12-2013 07:45 PM

Those look like the standard 06-09 OEM alloy wheels. If I remember correctly the chrome wheels available for the Z were a completely different 5 spoke style.

Yeah, those ugly chrome wheels seem to be a sometime optional wheel on ZR's, but you don't ever really see them on a coupe. And, I agree that the wheels pictured above look like the OEM silver-painted wheels.

Little hard to tell from the pictures.. The look good to me,.. I know we all have different preferences. I like the OEM non chrome and non painted wheels.. I like the OEM Chrome wheels..and I Like these wheels.. especially on this color.

So, car is OEM, Base.. cept it has some sort of aftermarket headunit with one huge screen on it. Maybe it's nice and has some built in bluetooth and other functions.

Thanks for helping

No steering wheel buttons, no nanny buttons left of the steering wheel = base.

It's a base model hr 350z. The in dash unit seems to be a pioneer head unit.

stuartc323 12-13-2013 07:00 AM

My car came with chrome OEM 2006-2008 rims, but chrome isnt standard it was an add-on option and they are the five spokes

Syner 12-13-2013 07:21 AM

Base 350Z, is Base.

stuartc323 12-13-2013 09:02 AM

Because Basecar

I could be being skeptical, but I honestly can't tell if that is a HR hood or not. In other words, is that a 2006?

e30cabrio 12-13-2013 09:26 AM

Open the hood, look at the motor.
