Can someone please explain to me (all of us newbies) what the bigger differences are between the Base, Enthusiast, Performance, Touring, and Track Z's are...

From what I've noticed (speaking of 04's) the difference between the Performance and Touring Z's are only the Leather Heated seats in the Touring model. Any other differences?

Track Model has the exact same engine setup as the rest, though adds stiffer suspension, Brembo Brakes, Rays Wheels.

 

suspension is the same on all models

 

i was wondering how they get 300 hp out of the track motor and 287 with the other models,.......what was done for the extra hp

 

Thats a good question because the 2005 car I have just ordered comes with 294bhp and brembo brakes as standard!

It is Gulf Spec they have told me.

 

I suspect you'll find the difference in HP is some exhaust tuning and perhaps some modification to the ECU for slightly better performance (but I'm just making a somewhat educated guess)

 

Base - No Cruise Control, HID's, LSD, TCS, VDC.

Enthusiast - HID's, LSD, TCS, 17" rims
Performance - Above + VDC 18" rims
Touring - Above + leather + Navi unit (optional)

Track - 300 hp motor, Rays Engineering Lightweight 18" Rims, Brembo Big Brake Kit, Underbody spoilers


Suspension is the same for all models. Also, all 2005 models get the Tire Pressure Sensor (TPS).

 

- Shorter, wider Intake
- Variable Timing on Exhaust Cam
- New ECU Fuel Mapping

I think there is more, but I can't remember it off the top of my head.

 

but, isnt it true that, most people remove or disable the vdc, and tcs and replace the lsd anyway

 

Touring also has BOSE

All models now have TPS and wider mirrors

 

I have a 7 speaker Bose sound system in the car with 6 CD changer!

Sounds like I have a pretty good motor, judging by all that!

I will post pics up when I get her, which should be on Thursday 27, keeping fingers crossed.

 

Your getting an '05 Track? They're the only one's w/ the 300 hp motor. Well, the 35th does too.

 

Just saying that you guys in the States seem to have a lot of different models, whereas we in the UAE only get one.
Brembo all round
294bhp
7 speaker Bose sound system
cruise control on steering wheel
leather seats
18" rims

I'll see what else when I get her.

 

That basically sounds like our 35th Anniversary model. Its like a combination of the Track model and the Touring model.

 

Ok, got ya. I will find out more when I get her.
