whats the difference???

as i get closer and closer to my purchase for a G... i think..

what is the difference between a 2003,4,5,6?

i mean MAJOR difference.. is there an HP difference? (im referencing the coupe 6sp only)

i mean, to my knowledge (which isnt quite much) its all 298hp, all have same exterior, and in 2005 the passengers started coming with power seats. all have optional navi... so can you guys help me out?

thanks fellas.

20 HP increase in 05/06. Improved interior guages, dash material for 05/06. Bi-Xenon projectors for 06. That is the only things I can think of but there are a few more differences.

The big dif is between 04 and 05:

04: 2-way power passengers seat, 6-way power drivers seats, 280hp, 270Tq,
Brembo Brakes on 6-spd, 18s, cassette player, manual tilt only steering column, manual movement of navigation screen

05: 4-way power passengers seat, 8-way power drivers seat, 298hp, 260Tq, midly redone dash, 19s, no Brembos on 6-spd, passenger airbag disengagement icon on dashboard, no cassette player, power tilt & telescoping steering column, motorized movement of navigation screen

06: Adds - Bi-Xenon headlamps with adaptive lighting, Rear Active steer (6spd only), bluetooth phone connectivity, memory on drivers seat, Intelligent key (Auto only, don't know why!), little button on the tail light to open the trunk

i'd take an 06 with the 03-05 wing. Having brembos isn't ALL that great IMO. I'd just get like stoptechs or something.

I would love to get a BBK from stoptech. But they are so expensive, and right now i have my eyes set on something else for the G (APS TT).

correction there IS a line down the center of the hood. its the other way around. heheeh I forgot. I had 03 before. the 06 is refined! Not perfect but much much better.

I had nav on 03, it was stupid when the nav was up, I can't see the cool lookin clock on the dash! Talk about a flaw on the design!
