Thank you for the reply and no there is obviously not a button for the convertable top that it does not have, It has A/T with triptronic shifter and no leather as in seats not roof.

I was just teasing you a bit, since you said you "thought" it was a coupe. Since the only two body choices are coupe and roadster, and you obviously didn't have the roadster...yeah, you've definitely got a coupe!
 
And it appears you have the Enthusiast package.
 
How are you liking it? I love mine, so far. (Touring Roadster.)

you can do it for sound, but not fuel efficiency. Most likely, you may see a DROP in mileage when you decrease the backpressure of the exhaust.

Thanks for the info,
 
                   I do not drive this car hard at all, well not alot the first week anyway. When you say a mileage drop are we talking more thank a mile or two per gallon? And do you think that it is worth it to add these products to the car? Should I just go with the K&N for the slight mileage boost and forget the Borla ehhaust?
 
                           Thanks.

you may not see any drop at all, so maybe 1 mpg, if that.
 
Even just the K&N won't improve mileage. Nothing measurable, anyway.
 
Frankly, all the tests I've read of K&N have turned me away from their products. Good old paper filter for me.
 
From my research while I owned my Z (which was a little while ago now, so maybe its changed ... maybe not) is that the popcharger is the best buy for an intake (JWT was the manufacturer, I believe). Actual dyno comparisons have shown about a 5 hp increase. This will also change the sound. So I'd try that first, see how you like it, and, if its not enough, then look into an exhaust.
