I'm pretty sure I'd you add it up,it will be hard to get all the features for 2-3k, you just be wasting as much if you plan to replace anyway.

Adding parts later from the manufacturer is never cheaper for cars.

Default Base is good enough

I have the base 6 speed. The sport and touring package are nice but then again I purchased my vehicle new for 27000.00 plus delivery tax tags.

Under the Touring specs it says the audio system in the car is 8 speakers and dual subwoofers? Where are the other 2 speakers and 1 subwoofer?

I could the 2 on top of the dash, the 2 on the door, and the 2 behind your seats. And then the subwoofer that's in the middle of your spare tire in the trunk. Is there another/smaller one behind/under your seat?

They count the tweeters as speakers, and there are two "woofers" in the spare.

The specs say 8 speakers including dual subwoofer - the woofer unit in the spare tire has two speakers, so that makes 8 total speakers.

Who would spend money on adding the worlds WACKEST stock audio system in ANY vehicle. You find a better sound system in a 20k hyundai veloster or a 16k hyundai accent than the stock bose Z stereo.

Get your metra kit. $35, get a pioneer avh 4400 for $400 or for a high def screen and added features, get the 8400 for $550. Get a jl audio w3v3sub,$200 and DLS up6I components for $350. This setup will run you around $1500 minus sub box, wiring and the amps of your choice which should be roughly $2000. DY this simple system and I guarantee that in the Z... it will sound like $5k systems in GT cars if done right.
At the end its $800 more than buying someone elses used bose system that's harder to install than aftermarket. The sound quality is stupendously better volume is 3x louder with much more clarity. Eurpean speakers with a good old fashioned american sub. It doesn't get any better price to performance.

+1...... Hands down this is the better bet to go with. The Bose system is good, but instead of spending XXXX amount on it, you could spend the same maybe $500 more. If you opt out to getting a better system it will sound a hell of a lot better w/o a question & would blow your mind away. I will bet that you would not regret it if you decided to go down this path.
