You're right on both counts, although the average person can detect volume changes down to 1 dB increments. The open trunk area seems to be the main noise culprit in the coupe.

I came from a loaded G37s with twice the luxuries as a Z and a banging Bose system u can't get with Nissan. I dropped down to a base/sport. Dropped in an aftermarket stereo. No need for heated seats as the Z gets toasty very fast. I bought what counts and have no regrets. Don't like
Verts in general. Been ahead of the luxury game and had base/sport. I'm happy with what I have. What counts to me is performance. Not the trinket extras. I want lux I'll buy a luxury car again.

Absolutly couldn't agree more, but I picked up this loaded vert for the same as a 2014 base sport. Couldnt pass up the extras and the performance is the same.

a coupe is louder than a vert...?? btw, you must have a base vert then... vert with touring comes with all the goodies too PLUS the heating/cooling seat... your vert don't have that?? |

This thread is a complete bash against hard tops, which is the majority of this forum. Also, it is no surprise that full optioned models are always better than stock base models, at least in terms of technology. Is this thread just for you to "brag" about having a full optioned Z roadster, and that you think it's better than all other Z models?

I think the OP is just saying the difference on equipment... can't say one Z is better than another Z because of equipping with different package... because they both Z... |
