Exact Difference: Rs200 Vs Rs200z?

[hamboyg]

I'm in New Zealand and wanting to purchase an altezza in the coming week.

Can anyone please tell me what are the exact differences between the RS200 and RS200Z? I.e. what does the Z edition have extra?

cheers

Not really sure but I have a suspicion it's the little bits - the Z gets a better stereo....

[hamboyg]

Thanks for the response.

The Z has a better stereo? How is it better?

[altezzaz]

Well, lets say this - I think my car is the Z edition....

I have an amplifier built into the electrics of the car - like the UK IS SEs and Sports. The "S" has 6 speakers as opposed to 8 (parcel shelf are 2 way) and the amp is built into the head unit.

I'm sure there are other differences but until I get a chance to pore over a car with a different spec to mine I can't tell you what they are!

may be z is se or sport (expect the engine) ?

(expect the engine) ?

I'd be very disapointed if I bought an rs200z and it didn't come with one

by the looks of it my AS200 is the Z edition.

The AS200/RS200 basic ones are obiously as per the Japs version of the S in this country with 15 inch alloys. $16000usd.

The Z version has 17 inch as standard without "wood panelling" wow! our SE without the posh half leather etc

Approx $19900usd

The l version, includes wood paneling, tasty! $22000usd

With the current £/$ exchange rate, I have a tempting idea!

So a brand new RS200 L Edition is 2,770,000.00 JPY

Japan Yen = 13,798.48 GBP

So how much would vat and shipping and duty cost on top ?
