Default ~Buying 05 Z next week~

Heyy Everyone....
So we just got an 05 Ultra Yellow Z with 32k traded in at work today for a 370... I'm told its the "Enthusiast Edition". I havent noticed the wheels on other ones around the area, HID's, and it also has the Bose w/ tape deck headunit.. The car is BEAUTIFUL in person, and I've been reading all day about these cars.. Thinking of pulling the trigger due to always wanting one the last 3 years, but this is the only one that truely caught my eye being I see cars day in day out. It's more attractive to myself than my ripping/grumbling Mustang was even!

Opinions/Thoughts??

Thanks!
_Anthony

Car appears to be in great condition - nice color.

How much is it going to run you?

It looks like it has Brembo brakes. I suspect that might be a 35th Anniversary model rather than an Enthusiast.

KornerCarver - I was thinking it was something along those lines because it has the Ultra Yellow, I'm probably wrong but could of swore Edmunds said Ultra Yellow was introduced for the Anniversary... and it has the Bose, which isnt supposed to be on the Enthusiast... Always stinks when people trade in a nice mint car without an original window sticker..

Ultra Yellow was not exclusive to the 35th Anniversary Edition. Ultra Yellow was the extra cost color for the 2005 model year. I'm almost certain that car is a 35th Anniversary. I enlarged the picture and the side emblem looks to be the slightly amber color of the special 35th AE emblem.
