Base vs. Touring?

chief_Roka · 09-18-2009, 01:14 PM

Hmmmm... the way I see it is. The Z is a true sports car. U don't lose whether base or touring. That sport package is the must have. As far as tranny. U can't lose either way. Both are cutting edge, state of the art, performance trannies.

The base will save u like 40 to 60lbs over the touring. Its minor but helps when modding is on your agenda. Besides if u do aftermarket. U can hav the same features of ur nav on a head unit with literally 80% less weight. The only advantage to touring is a neatly put together stock look that is attractive.
But if u know what you are doing? Your custom interior can be nicer with less weight added.

So its really just wat u prefer n there is no factual best in this issue imho
