cant see the pic either

in uk we have 2 versions both have brembos, the only diff from the 24k£ to the 26.5k£ is leather heated power seats, bose stereo with 7 speakers (incl sub) and nothing else i think.
in jap there are the T, S, and ST version, the ST being the full accessories one with brembos.

We've got two kids (9 and 12) and our only two cars are both 2+2s.

I'm sure they'll thank us for it when they're older -- it's got to be a bit different from all the other kinds being ferried around in 4x4s, MPVs and other miscellaneous Euroboxes :D
Yeah i bet they really appreciate being stuffed in the backseats of your 2+2's with their faces pressed up against the rear windows :rolleyes:

I'm gonna get a 350Z and put the kid in the boot !!

Minel.
we also have two Version in here. Which is Touring or Track.
ALso the only different between European and AUstralia (US also), that you have a Xenon, Head light washers, New Revise Suspension, new Colour, and Newer Interior Trim.

I wish i have the Xenon :cry:

No, we don't make them face backwards. They have their heads presse up against the back windows ;)
Still, the elder one fell asleep in the back of the Cerb the other day, so it can't be all bad.
Maybe they'll grow up to be petrolheads :firedevil:

mine is the track, which got everything in it. I think in Europe called it 350Z GT? I'm not sure. But mine is with Black Leather. As that is the only option for Blue colour Z in Australia. But i like the black better than the orange. Because the Black have a Orange Dot and Orange Stich :)

just got news from the us that all the improvements in the euro models have been implemented in japan and us (better interior plastic, better suspensions etc) so now im definitely convinced I will go for an import (with these improvements ) and save £££
