i would trade anything for your GS though.... wish i get the chance to ride in it sometime......

What was it about the car that made you feel like it was different?

The suspension?

How bad of an accident was it?



Congrats on the G35, I always wanted one too but it's still out of my price league. Good luck!
it wasnt that it doesnt feel the same, its just the fact that knowing that the car has been hurt..... almost like a scar, it recovers, but the image and memories of getting into the accident leaves me unsatisfy......

ps. i know infiniti has no chance in competing w/ reliability against lexus/toyota, but its not that bad, i had couple nissans to deal w/, and i loved them all, especially my 98 240sx. i'm still waiting on the day lexus makes the 2dr IS or whatever else they have in mind.

I have to agree I owned a 94g35. I loved the power the sound and the way it brought attention, but I hated going back to Infiniti every two weeks. First the brakes, then the radio, then the brakes sqeaked again, then the light on the dash clock went out. Then trans started to slip(partly my fault) but still the hassle was to much. The only thing that came out of it was every time it was in the shop they gave me a loaner and the last one they gave me was the 4dr g37. Man that thing is powerful. Almost wrecked it trying to show out. Long story. But back to topic love the g35 but probaly never own another one again. Maybe the 350z

I guess white is your favorite color, right? Congrats on the G35, but hope to see you back in the GS after you graduate.
