HIDs are different color now..

You definitely notice it by looking at it but on the picture can't see the lenses.
Look at the glare around the headlights.

Left one is purple, right one is blue

Can't describe the taste Anil ... no wonder I go to my parents every weekend evenings haha

They are really close actually, I kind of remember Istanbul... being close to everyone and neighboors and stuff

The only professor that I see other than at school is Indian too.. Dr. Das
He is crazy about Turkish foods...soooo haha

Dartmouth after NYC dude!! that's like totaly 180 degrees haha

My record is 3 times going and coming back in 1 week...
friendssss
but I love the road too, I use the north.. 84 and 91
nice and clean roads

So you saying forget the A-Spec rear for now and get Osrams for 200 + swap the lenses ?

That's what I think too haha

TODAY

Smoked the tires of 2 Infiniti G37 hahaha

I had dad's FX, took it to service and got G37x as a loan.
This car issss friggin fast
It just dosn't stop to pull. Gear 1-2-3 and still pulls like crazy...boom just passed 75

But!!!!! I can't live 6 years inside that car like I did with my TL.
Trash
I can't belive that...how stupid can you be and keep that car like that and don't redesign it.

Qualty sucks and interior is damn small. Navigation is small. Way smaller than TL and FX
Hate the AT. Shift knob doesn't feel sport like our AT.
MT knob of infiniti okeyyy but...
Trunk is small too

FX is different tho...it has art in it... design is much better even thoug it looks smilar, some how looks better.

My dad has the same thoughts too. Who cares if it's fast, can't enjoy the interior. So simple
Thinkin TL brought the design in 2004... you just say wow

Anyways, tested it like a maniac and loved the tire smell...but after that those meter ticket guys came and noticed that license plate expired haha

went back and replaced it with gray g37x
and tested that with my roomie (BMW one)
he is shocked after his slow ass 325

ok my dad was going to go home, before he stopped at CVS, he came back to car and sees flat tire haha

Was going to swap it with another G but then they said FX is about to finish, we ordered the part, you have to come back on thursday.

They will replace the seat rack of the driver.. seat moves

G37 is fast but till today, the car that I said f.cking pulls was my friends BMW 335 Coupe
That this had crazy stuff under the hood... was so low and loved the short shift knob too...

I never drove any other car that pulled like that one, but was manual
I never drove the G37 MT

that BMW was like dark blue also...interior red
Looked perfect but my idiot asian friend traded it with an X5

Oh by the way...couldn't pass without saying it again...
This car is the ugliest car ever
Coupe is okey but this sedan... something wrong
loved my TL once again

Damn the grill looks great

The torque those VQ motors have is ridiculous. My dad has a 2005 G35x and that thing hauls ass. You just tap the pedal and you're gone.

Steven I think lambos are too mainstream here now
I always see one of this thing around our pizza store
Whenever he crosses the T rails, he always hits front of the bumper
I swear to god hahaha
that thing almost stoped my heart and he passed from there again later on
