Looking to get a G35C to replace my Z...

My 2004 350Z is killing my lower back...even my doctor advised me to replace my 6 speed...so I've decided to go ahead with a G35C...I'm sure that the ride quality is not gonna be much better...but I have to go with an auto....so I'm looking at the 05's....what are the differences between 05 vs 04...and 05 vs 06? I've noticed a few things on the 05 in pictures that I can see that are different than 04...but I can't seem to find them vs. the '06. I'm probably looking to get an 05 with under 20k miles if there's one out there...I dunno if I should get an 04 or not..but I like the features of the 05s much more...any engine problems with the 05s? Please give your input....thanX

If you get a 6-speed, the ride is probably gonna be as stiff as your Z.
