swirl marks. even if you wipe your car with microfiber, swirl marks will appear. it's near impossible to prevent them. however, you can clear them up with polish/claybar. whatever you do, do not use a lot of pressure on whatever cloth you wipe your car with or else you will get small scratches.

Any chance you buy that car from Chicago? I was looking at a similar Z with the same price, but I don't want black.

I bought it in Michigan. I have Michigan dealer plate on the back of it for a few more days until I get my transit plate and that's not good when you are driving around in Columbus, OH. I will probably make a new post for this but what mods should I do first? I was thinking full dual ehaust from the headers back, intake manifold spacer, (it has a Jim Wolf intake on it now), ground wire kit, and I eventully want to add a supercharger (thinking the Vortech) or turbo, but not sure about the heat issue with going turbo any suggestions? Thanks! And Go Bucks!

You just missed the '05 Track model -- which also got the RevUp engine.

Another good way to tell a revup from a non-revup is the variable exhaust timing... Or lack there of.

Revup's have it, Nonrevup's don't.
