I have my 05 tl now for three years and 40,000 miles, i'm in love with an 08 g35 with the sport package, what do you guys think? i want to go with rwd.

You're going to take it in the shorts on the trade. If that doesn't bother you, then go for it.

so many other cars rwd that are better....

I would wait one year so the first year glitches are taken out, but thats my

I agree, the Continental GT is a far superior carv

Mokos23

the 2008 G35 is the 2nd year of the current second generation G35 so i think the first year glitches are taken out.

csmeance

whoops, my mistake then. Make sure you test drive the car and feel comfortable in the seat as alot of people complain of the crappy interior and the seats that hurt their back/left leg especially.

r u sure your talking about the 08 G35?

nokiaman

Isn't that supposed to be an AWD?

But apart from the IS350, 335i there isn't much better out there.I'd actually take a 6MT G35 over an IS350

ins't the 08 the g37?

csmeance

yes, some guy in the 3G section got rid of his 07 g37/35 and got a TL-S

iTimmy

Yes it is, but to make a blanket statement there are "better" cars out there I wanted to use an extreme example of something WAY more expensive and my mind had drawn a blank. Of course there are better cars out there, that's true of any price range, unless your spending $100k+ there will be compromises, its a matter of what fits best in your life.

For me if I were to buy a RWD sports sedan, without considering the price difference, I'd go with 335i. In terms of performance, handling, refinement, class, prestige, it's still in a class of its own. But no doubt, when you load the 335i with options, it can get very pricey.

Good choice with the G35!

damn dude you're 16 and getting a brand new G, you're one lucky guy! Take good care of it and be responsible driver

oonowindoo

You mean if it doesn't bother his parents.

spdy0001

He's 16 and he has had an 05 TL for 3 years?

Only BustedJack could buy an 05TL at 13

SSMTL01

A new G is definitely an upgrade from the 3G TL

Well said. If you can afford it, go for it. or not G35S is still a great ride

i'm not busting on the G35 but there are plenty of other RWD beast on the horizon coming out or out now. depends on your budget.
Benz C63(currently out)- they just redid the c class
Lexus IS-F(coming soon)- this car smoking hot
BMW M3- the sedan coming but you can can probably find if your lucky a M3 new body style on the lot
Jag S type R- Jag dealers wanna unload these cause the XF coming in this upcoming spring so you'll get a killer deal on the 07s left.
if you budget is not in the 60-70 grand range
these are in the 30-40 grand range:
BMW 335- it's a snappy looking twin turbo number
Benz C350- not as stout under the hood as the 335 and you can't get a stick transmission but IMHO i like the looks of this guy better than the 335.

if your more about raw power and not all the chrome and features.
I'd suggest
a SRT-8 Charger. your talking a 6.1 Hemi v-8 pumping out 425 hp.
comes with 20s from the factory.
pulls .90 G on the skid pad its an impressive car for the money.

I've driven one. Interior materials reminded me of a Ford.
