2006 350z (pics)

Face Lift, LED Tails, minor interior changes, and standard 300 hp:

2006 Nissan 350Z Coupe & Roadster

For the 2006 model year, the 350Z receives some welcome improvements. Bi-xenon headlights and LED brake lights are now standard. Cosmetic exterior changes--always debatable--include a tastefully revised front fascia and grille. As first reported in The Mole, new 18-inch cast wheels with increased brake rotor size (for non-Brembo® brakes) are standard on most models. All 6-speed models now have the 300 horsepower rev-up engine (automatic transmission Zs continue with the 287 horsepower engine) and all models get a new speed-sensitive steering system. Interior refinements, long overdue, include new cloth seat material and revised HVAC controls and gauge styling. The Bose® audio system now has MP3 capability and a new navigation system is available. A Grand Touring coupe model--essentially a Touring model with Brembo® brakes, front and rear spoilers, and Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)--has been added to the lineup. Sure to please enthusiasts, both the Grand Touring and Track models get RAYS super lightweight 5-spoke forged-alloy wheels--18”x9” in front with 245/40-18 tires and 19”x10” in the rear with 265/35-19 tires--for improved handling and visual impact. We’re sorry to see the exterior color Ultra Yellow disappear, but three new colors arrive: Silver Alloy, Magentic Black, and Interlagos Fire.

its only 13 horsepower more than the current Z's. i'd save my money and buy a used one. besides, i'm sure the head & tail lights are interchangeable with the current Z if u want them that bad.

the only difference they did to make the extra "13hp" was change the lower plenum and remap the fuel...

Yah, and hating is still hating. Don't hate, congratulate. It all stems back to jealousy... whether you want to admit it, or not. Just my $0.02...


Back on topic, though... that 350 looks EXACTLY the same, to me, as the "old" 350's... lol. I never did care too much for them, though... I much prefer the G35.

well i think its good. 200hp is approaching some "supercar" figures... *ahem* NSX *ahem* so this is a step in the right direction.
i just made this (http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/sh...43#post3284543)thread to collect info on the next skyline but if thigs keep going like this for the Z there will be no need for one. the Z is consistantly getting better and better and has HUGE support for aftermarket parts and know-how!

Very nice update... even thou it's subtle... I like it!

For "spider883", SHUT UP... your negative about anything that isn't honda, and yes I don't care if you own or had a TT 350z... get over your past problems you had with it.

Move along lil fellow.
