That is a very nice G35 man, and I nomally stay away from Nissan, but that one is tight! I was looking at your signature and saw a picture of an LS400. Is that one yours?

Default My 05 G35 6mt came in

2005 G35 6mt! After a 6 week wait, its here. Black what a pain to keep clean and take care of. I use Zaino on my cars, any recommendations? Also wanted to mention our Rx300 got totalled a week ago by a lifted Tahoe. Wasn't a pretty site. Not sure on replacement yet, but we will see.

funny thing is, the IS350 4-door with an automatic 6speed will STILL be faster than the G35 coupe with a 6mt
What makes you say that? Got any info that backs your statement up?

its difficult to say take the M3 when the G35 is just such a better value... i mean sure the M3 is more exclusive.. but an M3 will cost u in the mid 30's and you could get near the same performance, handling, more luxury, and better build/more reliable car for less with the G35. plus the G35 is a younger car. i like the M3 styling better, but the G35 is one helluva package. plus, if u ever wanted to tune your car, its much much cheaper to tune a G than a BMW.

and i would need a helluva lot of money before i even considered buying a benz. those things break so easily.

It was a clear protective coating that was on the car during delivery. I removed it when I got home.

I bought a truck for a short period and hated it, so I got the G again.
