I feel your pain, yes the stock audio system really sucks. I had an 09 Z that had the base audio.. just bought a Touring model and the Bose stereo is 200% better!

LOL, hopefully Glen will tame the beast. I tried and failed.

So the back speakers on base are empty ?

Make sure to tell us a few more times how it's a cheap car to get from point A to point B.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm not quite receiving the proper amount of "smug air of superiority" quite yet.

But yes, absolutely, when I buy a base model + sport package, I don't expect to open the door where the navigation goes and find no navigation system any more than I expect to find no speakers behind every single possible mounting location. Then again, I'm stupid and unreasonable like that, it's one of my faults.

Yup, thought and did the same thing. I dynamatted the doors and the base audio sounds better. I'm fine with it as I don't make the music loud at all. Listening to the engine/exhaust note while driving definitely makes me feel better.

i could be wrong though....

I had a 2003 350z Touring and the only problem I had was window streaks, otherwise the car was rock solid for 85,000 when I traded it in.

Just joining this thread. Biggest complaint is the exhaust sound compared (stock for stock) with my 350z. Other than that the car is awesome!!!!!

You can solve your own problem by driving when you don't need to.
