"did you happen to reseach tranny problems and not just tire problems? "

As I said just 5 posts up from yours, there are NO more tranny issues, much less any other issues with the 04.5 Z's. Some people may stilL experiance a little bit ofawindow grease mark but that's.

On a side note , I wish I had an s2k as well as my Z. I love both cars for different reasons. But the fun factor with the top down on the s2k just is not beatable.

With the changes made to the 04 the car is now almost perfect.
you're going to love the '04

I don't blame you. After my clutch died at only 37K miles (yes I drive it respectfully) I went and pre-ordered a 05 Lotus Elise. My order has been taken and I am in delivery group 2. Now I just have to wait another 6 months for the car

I was a huge Honda fanatic until Honda America basically told me to F'off on my complaint. I guess over paying for their cars doesn't translate to good customer service.

I agree with the above statement. the 350z drop is odd looking. I like the G35 even better

As a Z coupe owner, I will agree that the drop top Z is FUGLY with the top up.

Well, the more I drive it, the more I like it. I commute about 70 miles a day. For over 2 years, I would drive the S on sunny days and weekends. All other days, a 95' Camry. I know.... A 95 CAMRY ??? That's right, it was a great car, reliable and who cares how many miles are on it. The S was not a good daily driver. Once I had the 4th clutch problem with no solution from Honda in sight, and only 14K miles on the car, I got the Z. I also sold the Camry. The Z is actually a comfortable car (compared to the S) and is driven daily.
