For a while there you may have been driving around one of the fastest stock versions of the 370Z since the tiny breaks are less mass to spin at launch and the 7AT is so damn quick! I guess you'll never know!

Dealer def tried to pull a fast one on you. I would check your bill of sale, and if you still have it, your window sticker. Dealerships don't just have a full set of brakes for the Z just laying around. Heck, I needed touch-up paint and they had to order it.

Good thing they fixed it, but I would have to question why in the first place. Deffinately would let them know it is BS and I wouldn't be back to that dealer. |

No offense, but you need to be really clueless to not know if you have the sport package or not. Wheels/Tires, Brakes, Spoilers, Side Skirts, LSD. Come on.

All 370Z's come with a pair of small diffusers that sit in front of the front tires that are dealer-installed. Lie down on the ground in front of your car. There should be a black plastic thing hanging down in front of each wheel. If they're not there and not in a plastic bag in your trunk, call the dealer. ---------- Can you expand on that more? There is supposed to be a bag with what in them inthe trunk? And in a bag hanging in the front wheel wells? Just need this explained a little more, I'm going to check when I get home. What exactly is supposed to be there? Are these spares/backups? |

I don't think it is reluctance, it is indifference. Not sure what everyone wants pictures of... everyone has seen 19" Rays with base brakes haven't they? Sorry I just don't see what OP needs to prove to us. |

Yeah but the guy said the dealer found his brakes... unless he has sports and they are going to swap them for base (that would be amazing) I don't think they would admit that anything was wrong unless OP was correct that he did not have sport brakes installed.
I get wanting to see pics PRIOR to the dealership admitting they fouled up but people accusing him of lying afterwards sort of confuses me. |

When I was shopping around for my roadster, the dealership near my house ordered the car a wanted, roadster, touring, sports. I waited for the car to get there and when they finally called i showed up and they took me to the car (it had just came off the truck and the first thing I noticed was it didnt have the sports wheels.) After he showed me around and i got to look inside I also noticed that it was a base model. I told this to the sales person and he said that this is what I told him I wanted. We started talking to the GM and even the GM insited that I buy that car since they shipped it there just for me. He tried throwing in free oil changes and a better warranty and all I kept telling him was "even with that this is not the car I want and i dont want to buy a car and then later on be wishing that I insisted on getting the touring w/ sports. He just couldnt understand why I wouldn't buy that car, insted of continuing to look for the car I wanted. needless to say I never went back to that dealer again.
