Default anyone notice their temperature control on the Z

the temperature goes from 60 degrees all the way to 90 degrees. But has anyone counted the number of clicks it takes to go from 60 to 90. It takes exactly 30 clicks. So each turn is equal to 1 degree. I love the Z. Its the little details that make it special.

i commute 2hrs and 15 min one way and was sitting in traffic. I just saw the **** and it hit me. So i started at 60 turning the **** and when it got to 75 it was exactly 15 clicks.... and when i continued to 90 it took 15 more clicks. I was amazed that nissan thought about such a small detail. Made me feel the Z was even more special. Haha

Well, if you are going to commute that much, you might as well have a nice car to do it in.

The 300s are the same way, with 1 degree increments from 60-90F; however, they are digital, and can show the ambient temp instead on the 91-96 models. . I leave mine set at 69 AUTO for best comfort.

I wish our Zs have the digital readings like the Maxima, Murano, and Infiniti cars.
