Anyways, if you have money to waste, then do it so you can be satisfy.

They had a mid cycle refresh on the 350z in 2006

I agree, you did good to seek some opions

The sport package is a good deal, but if you take the difference and go aftermarket, you can get better components and make the car more yours, since you have the 7AT you already have DRM and can't get SRM.

350z had three different engine variations from start to finish... VQ35DE, VQ35 high rev , than VQ35HR that had 300 HP....

also body changed a little, headlights.. interior changes...

they really haven't done any of that for the 370z except for color changes and heated mirrors...

SRM is nice, first time I ever experienced it was today in another Z, pretty damn cool BUT not worth the hit you will take...

I wouldn't mind trying to be the first one to get SRM into my car though, lol

Its your money, and if it makes sense to you to get the sports package than do it up.

But as other said upgrading it would be better but it still will cost a good amount..

A good LSD like quaife (much better than stock one ) = 1100 plus labor
or a used VLSD = 400ish but good luck finding one (took me months)
akebonos - 1200ish used 1500-1700 new
rays wheels = 1200ish
spoiler = 300-500

all together about 4 + thousand I would estimate but you would be paying out of pocket, if you trade in you can finance all of it..

I wouldn't but its up to you...

how many miles on your current Z?

Also you can try to post on here to possibly trade, There may be someone with base sport than would do a straight trade for touring no sport ... you never know.
