The base model comes with 4 speakers but they consider the component speakers in the front dash and front door panels to be 4 speakers. They can't explain why the fader then doesn't seperate the dash speaker from the door panel speaker but the simple answer is those two speakers work as a unit and together they supply the high, midrange and low frequencys and they're trying to save money ($108)by skimping on the rear speakers. They will install a pair of rear speakers for $360 parts and labor and I'll probably do it as rear speakers make a huge difference but I'm asking everyone who test drives a 370 even if your getting a nismo or touring to test a base model and when the salesmans sitting there ask him to fade to the rear speakers then let me know how he explains the silence from the back. STILL LOVE THE CAR just hate that they had to spoil a great experience for a lousy $108.

I posted about this right after I bought my base 370 Z last month. Many responses to my post indicated that with the way the Z is set up, no rear speakers are needed and could actually be counterproductive. See if you can find the thread, as many of the people who posted were very knowledgeable about audio. Frankly, I'm satisfied with set up absent the rear speakers. The cabin is small enough that the fronts create plenty of sound for me. But everyone's different and your reaction was my initial reaction, as well.
