IMO the '04 feels more solid. I have driven the '05 and it didn't feel as secure to me...

people have customized leather boots to go around the entire circular area on 03's and 04's to make it look even more like a mt

yea it does look good/clean no doubt about it...but if i had an auto 350z i wouldn't try and make it look like an mt...in that pic it looks just like an

mt...that's just me though...as for the older g35 autos, i would try and make their shifter look like the newer g models...
