My Winter Rims/Tires Setup: TRMotorsport C2 + Blizzak LM-25 w/TPMS w/pics (AK370Z)
thanks for the link, I hadn't don't much research on the packages. 1200 or so sounds a lot more reasonable then my random expectation!

I wanted a car with the non-Bose stereo b/c I'm not that impressed with the software Nissan has on their Bose stereos and I wanted the cubby at the top of the stack rather than a screen. I wasn't planning on spending anything on mine either...$2k later and here we are. I've wanted a Z car for a long time and despite the wife's desire I not get one...I figured it was time. We don't have kids and I'll be 40 next year.
haha good for you man glad you got what you wanted. I'm 33 and single so I don't really need to worry about the desires of others. yet.

One more question if you guys don't mind. Roadsters in the winter, any issues with this? Don't see convertibles often out on the roads in chicago winter, probably for good reason but is this a possibility or just stick with the coupe?
