What are the benefits of removing the engine cover and the benifits of keeping it on. I heard someone said it gives the engine more breathing space, but I also heard it increases heat soak when removed. So i really dont know what to believe.

Two questions

1) Would someone please post the link for the specification sheet/package options for the 2006 sedan. It was an Infiniti press release.

2) Does anyone have the 2005-2006 premium package (reclinable rear seats) without a rear spoiler?

thx

I have a 2006 with premium B/sport packages and no spoiler.

Sell it to me. A local guy took one and gave me his black 03 cover and i really don't want to run it on the car when i sell it. It is supposed to be silver.

I have an '06 with Premium Package C, got everything except nav, sat radio, sport suspension and 18s.

It should be spoiler-less but the dealer I got it from added one

That's actually not an older (03/04) cover, it's a coupe cover. All the coupes came with black instead of silver for some odd reason.
