is it a good sat nav system?

I was speaking with a Nissan rep at the FoS on Saturday whilst looking round the Black MY06 that they had on display. I noted that the display car had electric seats and Sat Nav. I was told that the Sat Nav is standard with the GT pack. Is this true or was he taking out of his proverbial? Are the electric seats also standard?

I've tried to find some on this site but can't Does anyone have good quakity pictures of the Nizmo exhaust and can you comment on the increased noise?

thanks, I must sort out a test drive for Friday. Hopefully I can find somewhere with a MY06. Are there any good on-line reviews of the zed? (I'm half way through reading all the back issues of EVO that have featured the zed in it's many variants, so far so good, not really a bad word said about it). Jut about to start reading the fast fleet articles now......

Thanks. Just spoke to a dealer about a test drive but got very confused. He asked me what version of the zed I wanted, the one with the extra 20bhp (300bhp in total) or the 280bhp version. I was under the impression that the 300 was now standard and had been for a while (was first introduced for the gt anniversary edition but now standard). Dealer said he didn't have one as they are a very new model with new front and rear lights etc. He could only offer a test drive in the 280bhp version. Can someone put me straight on the various engine specs available please and for how long they have been around?

yeah, thought as much, but still, any info is better than non. If i buy second hand, I could potentially bag a real bargain. What should I look for in a second hand Zed? have there been any major faults with them? I'm interested in peoples replies regarding the general performance from teh Zed. How do they compare to a Boxter S for example? Is a Zed a good track car, is it involving enough etc?

I'm considering a new car. Looking at Boxters, Cayman (non S type when it arrives), I have recently owned a Caterham SLR300, prior to that I had a Honda S2000 (tempted to get another one but reluctant to re-tread old ground). Don't want a beemer. The 350Z falls nicely in my price bracket. Having read through EVO mag I can see that they rate it quite highly, but I thought that I would ask the question here to see what response I get. I would not be using it as a daily driver, but would use it often at the weekend to take my 5 year old boy out and about. The worst I have heard is that the interior is slightly 'cheap' looking, but not seen it myslef so can't comment. I'm trying to get a test drive for Friday afternoon, but wondered what you owners have to say about the Zed? Other Jap cars I have owned are new Civic Type R, UK scooby and STi V scooby (as well as the S2000), non of which ever let me down. Thanks
