If they would have had a car like the Nismo, except without the body kit (no offense, it's growing on me, but I'd rather the "sleeper" Z look ), without the limited edition plate (it'd mess with me too much when I went to mod it ), and with the choice of Daytona Blue. :-p

They are now sice the Track model is no more, but when they were introduced in '06, they came standard on the GT and Track model.

There was no track model in 06. There hasn't been a track model for a few years.

These wheels were only available on the GT model. That is it.

Hate to break it to you, but yes, there was the Track in '06; just not very many of them. Track was dropped in '07.

Awww okay, I apologize. I remember researching the 06 and there was no tracks when I looked. Even the dealer said there wasn't one. It must have been a rare model.

Yeah, they kind of got redundant when they came out with the GT that had the same rims and Brembos PLUS all the goodies from the Touring to boot, so there weren't too many Track models made or sold in '06 and prob why they dropped it in '07. I consider the Nismo to be a Track replacement (and a pretty darn good one).

i don't know who designed the rear bumper but, i don't like it, i wouldn't mind having one, though. the guy asked me if, i wanted to trade in my car and i told him, i'd stick to my base 350z for now.

Autech who makes the GT series race car for Nissan designed the bumper. It looks similar to the race car itself and its functional.

If you guys want to get technical, it really is a base 350Z with extra options.

With most any other car model and make, you have a bone stock car with no options which would be your base model, then you add options to your liking.

With the 350Z though, they have specific models with certain options already chosen for you. I guess it's pretty obvious, but I thought I would just say it.

It really is its own model. Edmunds has it listed as a separate type in its pricing list.

^ true. The seam welded chassis sets it apart from the rest. I thought I saw that they are actually built by Autech, or at least the chassis is pulled from the assembly line and sent to then to be welded up.
