wrightster Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 guys sorry to be a PITA but in my earlier newbie post here http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=32235&start=15 it was kindly explained about the facelift headlights but yet this a 56 plate has the older headlights http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1493688.htm ?? all i want to know is a definate way to identify the 276 / 296 models am i wrong is that not a 56 with pre facelift lights? also these are not Rays alloys? is that right were the Rays an upgrade? thanks a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 296 models also have a ridge in the front bumper, rear LEDs & a revised interior Rays were an optional extra up until the 296 mode (I think) & ten they became standard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATTAK Z Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Rays alloys were a £1000.00 upgrade and that's a 276 bhp (280 ps) car IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainSensible Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 That car is a 276 version, even if it was registered in 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich5259 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 there are some 09 plate cars with the old lights too, not sure what field they were in for the last 3 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudge Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 there are some 09 plate cars with the old lights too, not sure what field they were in for the last 3 years Would they job be JDM registered in 09? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebized Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 The interior is usually the give-away - here's a pic. Quite a few pre MY06 models (introduced mid 2006) have been updated externally in one way or another but very few have gone the whole hog changing the interior. Some of the earlier MY03 models (up to mid 2006) were not sold until 2007 - so be careful if its a 56 plate car you are buying. Not in that pic - each door on the MY06 models has bottle/can holders below the pulls and there is also a small cargo net on the passenger footwell side of the tunnel. (The phone holder, socket extension and curley wires were my ornaments ) Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
