Default Do all Z's come with FOBs

Like the title says. I recently bought a 2006 Z, but the dealer had no FOB for the keyless entry for it. Do all Zs have FOBs? How can I tell if my car has keyless entry? There is a flashing red light on the dash in front of the steering wheel. I am assuming this is for the keyless...Sorry for the dumb question

Yes they all come with a keyless entry, go back and demand one.

2004 plus has a keyless FOB. Not sure about 2003.

Blinking red light on dash in front of steering wheel shows that anti-theft security system is working properly.

Default Z's come with FOBs

Local nissan dealer gave me no fob either..had to go back an ask for it.
I got only one, and that took awhile as they searched through boxes of fobs.
You would think the dealer would be better at the whole key thing.

Local dealer lost points in my book.

yeah i would go demand a FOB but the dealer may try to make you pay for a set bc you didnt ask to have them included in the deal(even though they come with the car)

My car was bought at an auction by the dealer, then flipped to me. So I got a good deal on it. So I'm sure the FOB was lost in translation. Can I buy a FOB offline and program it to my car. Or do I have to let the dealer twist my nuts to get a FOB and program it to my car.

like others have mentioned, just buy FOB from ebay and re-program it. It should take no longer than couple minutes to reprogram.
My roommate gave me his previous Altima's FOB and it worked just fine on mine with reprogramming.

+1 for ebay, I bought two nearly-new FOB's for $40

When you do buy it you can use this DIY to program it:
