Z32 Purchased - what do I need

I purchased the 96 Z32 from Evanston, IL, and just waiting to finish some paperwork for delivery. I would like to make sure they ship the vehicle with everything (loose stuff) intact. Here's a few I could think of - please add anything you think I'd have missed:
T-Tops: keys, cover, shade
Floor mats (x2)
Keys (x2)
Security system keyfob - does the Z32 have them, (x2)
Owner's booklet
Emergency tools - jack, tool box?? what else??

Thanks fellas for all your help. I'm sure I'll SHIFT_grin a lot in the next few years. As soon as I have the car in my driveway, I will post pics. Here are some sample from the selling dealer: http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...c=__dHVyYm8,__

Once again, many thanks to snwbrderphat540 for driving my car before I did!!!

floor mats will stay where they are. they are hooked in.
t-top shades can be put on. covers can be put in the glove compartment, or with the spare tire
there should be 3 different types of keys. black, normal(x2 i think). red, valet. and a titanium.
the jack equipment is safe in the spare tire well.

have them put all paperwork, reciepts, booklets, keys, keyless, etc. into a folder or something and put them in the glove compartment

lol traction control, dynamic stability. steering wheel radio controls?

no prob. it was fun

also, i already made sure for you they had the T-top shades, keys, the keyless entry, and the original Z floor mats. i dont remember if they had 2 sets though, and i didnt think to check the road side stuff (jack, spare etc.) or for the owners manual. the rest is there though.

Yeah, right!!!! I cracked up when I read that at first, especially the traction and stability control - hey,maybe that's why snwbrderphat540 was tempted to swing the tail a bit!!!!!! Seems like some clerk just kept on typing whatever came in mind.

BTW, thanks for your input. I thought the Z32 came with two titanium keys as driving keys. Never knew it also has a red valet key - cool. What should I expect to find in the emergency tool kit?

I meant a mat for the driver and another for the passenger side. The owners manual is on order. In picture #13 (side view), there seems to be a lot of room between the tires and the rest of the wheel well - as if the rear is lifted a bit. Did you notice any of that or is it just the aspect ratio of the picture?

you will only get one titanium key. cherish it. i dont think the z32 comes with an emergency kit.

the tires look small in the back.

they were a bit lower profile than i woulda put on stock rims, but were fine. the front were pirelli's and the rear were something else... Z32's rear ends do sit slightly higher than the front i believe. but it was pretty normal. they have the floor matts for the passenger and driver side out (special matts though) they have a big silver "Z" in the middle of them.
