Default Base Model vs. Enthusiast

I'm considering ordering a new 350Z. does anyone have anything to say about either the 2006 Base or the 2006 Enthusiast models? What is the difference in features, etc. Post any advice.

Both of my Z's have been the enthusiast model... Best bang for your buck model. LSD is worth the cash alone.

Having been in your predicament just a year ago I understand your confusion. In my case I went with the Enthusiast because of LSD ( no...not that LSD ) and TCS system. The cruise control was just gravy. BTW my Z DOES NOT have audio controls on the steering wheel. Either way your gonna love it!!!
