Finally bit the bullet and got something new...

Well as most of you at the Philly meets know, I am always talking about getting something new, but never knew what to get. I finally made a decision. I will be taking delivery of a 2005 Infiniti G35 Couple. Ivory Pearl with Wheat (why the hell can't they just say white with tan???) this week. Unfortunatly, I did need to make a concession and get it in Auto (why she can't learn to drive stick is beyond me)

Pic to follow when it comes in. Being dealer traded so I gots to wait a few days.

I hope you and your 2005 Infiniti G35 couple will be very happy together.

Seriously though, I love those cars...I'm hoping to get one this summer. Too bad you couldn't opt for the 6spd and extra power that comes with it.

Don't worry about it...

Good luck with the car though, I'm sure it'll be a blast.

They're great cars, but around here we don't see much of them because of their drivetrain layout. Same thing goes for BMW's. At least Infiniti/Nissan are reliable enough compared to the german or american cars.

Nice

I bet we'll still be having the same discussion at Philly meets regardless, what to get next.

Good luck with it. They are beautiful cars, the white is especially hot
You gonna do anything to it? Wheels? Stereo? Tint? Nothing?

Didn't they tell you? The white over tan is $800 cheaper.

the 6speed is so much more peppier and just feels like it can take so much more damage from your driving.. i love the extra power and the feel of those short throws. the manuals on the G35C/350Z are just simply amazing.. the auto feels like its missing too much. haha. its still great because it handles beautifully, but it just isnt the same.

Congrats man. Glad you finally decided. It's still a sweet car, even in auto.

If the concession serves the greater good (i.e. next car I can get whatever the f I want) I'll make it.

She already gave the greenlight on a Lotus next......
