Meh, the coupes are still nice cars but I wouldn't even bat an eye at a roadster. Fugly^10, especially with the top up.

If you want a roadster buy something that was designed as a roadster not something that is one as an afterthought.

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

DAS GANGSTA!

and it's still gonna have the differential tire wear problem..

Those issues were limited only to '03 and early '04 models AFAIK.

the fronts still have the feathering issue... however, nissan sent me a letter saying they'd fix the problem and re-imburse me for any tires that I have purchased as a result. (even if I have aftermarket wheels!) I have a 04.5

i have a 2005 Z w/ 15k and have no feathering issues on the tires.. there is still quite a bit of tread left.

I want to see pics of the new black color.. i wonder what is different from the new "Magentic Black" from the Super Black of the previous model years (i own a super black)

Also, they brought back the burgundy color (which was brickyard in 2003) now named Interlagos Fire... wonder if there's any difference?

Take off the front tires and run your hand along the inside tread. Mine was so uneven i didn't even think it was round anymore. Possible that they fixed it in the 05s. I personally don't like the brickyard red, but I know quiet a few people that think it's the best color evAr.
